So my plan to try and post at least every month totally bombed. However, we are still not too deep into Sep, so I'll try and stay on top of it from here on out. Winding down summer and getting ready for school is always crazy, but I love how much fun it is getting with the kids getting older. We have a ton of hand me down clothes from my sister and sister in law so school shopping really isn't too difficult. Abby always gets to pick out one new out fit but other than that is completely clothed by other peoples stuff-yeah, I know, I'm totally lucky there. Usually this is the case for Coop too but since Missy moved to Seattle (tear, tear) getting the hand me downs from her has gotten tricky and I've actually had to buy him more than one or two things. Yeah, never had to do that before.
The first day of school came and went without too much drama. Abby was totally pumped to be in first grade and the following week when the "little kindergarteners" started she thought she was pretty hot stuff.
She really is pretty cute in her SHOPPING IS MY LIFE shirt. Which by the way, is pretty true.
How about this little guy on his first day of school. He insisted on wearing his Jolley Plumbing shirt that day. Who am I to argue? He is so handsome in it.
Whitney and Shelby are going to going to school before I know it. Whit is already getting so big. We are currently working on sitting up and rolling over. 
Shelby wishes she could keep up with Abs and Coop and most days, by the end of the day, is pure exhausted from trying.
Shelby loves to hold Whit. It doesn't last long but she still does it every day.
Here is my little man on his 4th birthday. We had to open presents before Rob went to work so here he is in his jammies still. Look at that physique!
Here is Abby with her two front teeth missing. She lost the second one yesterday. The tooth fairy did come on time this time where as last time she was a day late and I actually had to go down the morning after and put the dollar under Coop's pillow and tell her the tooth fairy must have made a mistake. I'm a rookie, I know.
Here is my handsome man all rugged and ready for the trek. He went in July with our stake. He was an uncle in one of the families. He had so much fun. I'm sure all the ladies fell in love. How hot is he with that beard?!
And here he is clean shaven. Some of the people that were on the trek wore their clothes the next day to church. Who was the high councilman on the stand in trek clothes? Oh, that's right, it was Rob. What a trooper.

too cute! your kids are growing up so fast! I,also,love the hand me down clothes :D Thanks again :D
I love the plumbing shirt..almost as much as the 'high priest' in his attire!! I can't get over him being a high councilmen. So weird!
Such a cute little family....and that's funny about Rob on the high council. Jared just got put in our ward bishopric after going to our new ward only 3x...HUH?!? Anyway, your kids are darling! Glad to see you're blogging so we can keep up on your life.
Seriously, you have four kids?? And when did they get so big?? And how cute is little Whitney!! Darling little fam you guys have - maybe one of these I'll come over to see Whitney. Her and Charlie could be good little pals, I'm sure.
Sound like things have been hectic at your house. Your kids are SOOO big. I love the two front teeth missing look. It's the greatest. How is your "house flipping" going?
Hey good to see a post. I am so terrible. I am barely able to keep my head above water right now but at least I am checking now right. K I hope that we can get together soon. I can't believe little Shelby, she is so darn cute, and Whitney has changed a ton. All your kids are darling. And I loved that Rob wore that to church, that is awesome.
Sounds like a good August for the Jolleys. My favorite part is that Coop wore his Jolley plumbing t-shirt to his first day. Sounds like Kristen Jr. and the Kick Back debacle!!
