Back to School! Kindergarten!


This morning went pretty smoothly.  I only forgot two things.  Joshua's drink for his lunch and he forgot to brush his teeth.  Tomorrow should be even better.

Joshua has to wear a uniform.  He is excited that he at least gets to wears shorts still.  We all liked his teacher at the Meet the Teacher night, so I hope his day is going swell!

The above is Dallin's reaction to it all.  The picture says it all....

Closing out Summer

We headed to the zoo one last time before school starts for Joshua.  We've had awesome weather this August!  I can't  believe I'm in Texas!  It is crazy and I am enjoying every minute of it.  We had a great time at the zoo.  Leah is a little uncomfortable around animals, but she is getting better with each trip. 

 
 
 


Michael and I also celebrated out 7th Anniversary.  Jenny and Tony took the kids over night.  They did a wonderful job with them, and my kids loved it.  Michael and I took advantage of the time and weather.  We went kayaking first.  It started to rain on us, but it was still fun.  We went out to eat and then caught a movie.  We slept in the next morning.  I can't remember the last time we got to sleep in.  It was awesome!  Big thanks to Tony and Jenny.  Michael gave me these pretty flowers.  We have had an awesome 7 years and I am sure it will only get better.  :)

Leah Bug is 18 Months!


Leah is doing wonderfully!  She was so great for the Doctor.  Dr. Rosen said it was one of the best 18 month appointments he has ever had.  She did everything he asked and didn't cry until the nurse actually came in with the shot.  The nurse came back in after the shot to hand me Leah's shot record and Leah glared at the nurse and pointed to her thigh.  Silly girl!

Leah is only 22.5 lbs and 31.5 inches tall.  She is just under average for girls her age.  I think she is tiny.  :)  She has been into accessories lately.  The hat in the video below she picked out and wore all day.  The bow and necklace she picked out and wore as well.  She won't wear what I want her to, but only what she wants.    As I said in a previous post we have been watching the Olympics.  This Leah pretending to be a track star.  :)  I think she is pretty stinkin' cute!  
I'm sorry it is sideways.  I couldn't get it to flip.

My little Olympians and Avengers

August if finally here, so the count down to school begins.  We are filling in our days with swimming and watching the Olmpics.  :)  Texas is really heating up this week with a high today of 108.  Michael is taking the Scouts camping.  I don not envy him at all.  It is going to be hot! 

The boys are getting so good at swimming.  They love it.  If I had to pick an Olympic sport for them today, I think they would do best in swimming.  ;)
 
 

Avengers is big at our house.  Even Leah gets into it.  The boys play it all of the time. 
 

We have been just hanging out lately due to the heat, but we are all well.
