Monkeys

My big boy all tired out from Kindergarten. Nate has been going to bed right around 7 p.m. We read, talk and pray for about 3o minutes and then lights are out. He falls right to sleep. I checked on him the other night and I found the footballs in bed with him. He loves sports... I wonder where he gets that from. HEHE!!
Ty's first biter biscuit.... I'm pretty sure he thought it was yummy!!
Little stinker...


Nate giving Ty smooches...



Ty loves his big brother... I wonder why??? I wonder if maybe it is because Nate is sooo sweet to him. Plays with him and kisses him all the time!




Ty is in awe of this monkey. He'll just stare at it.. funny!!

1st Week of School

The first week of school went well. Nate LOVES kindergarten!!! We live a few blocks from our school so Nate thinks he has to ride his bike every day. He still has his training wheels on his bike and I was nervous that he'd be the only kid with training wheels... NOPE, there are a few kinder kids that rode their bike with the training wheels. I'm pretty sure that we can take the tr. wheels off but too scared to let my baby go without them. Rob has been practicing with Nate but I'm still not ready to take that risk. Nate rides his bike with his buddies and Addison, Ty and I follow in the joggin buggy. After dropping Nate off, the little ones and I go jogging!!Walking in on the first day...

With his buddy Lindsey...


Getting ready for his big day...
Nate is such a big boy. He wants to walk to class by himself so I kiss him outside the school and watch my big boy go off on his own into the school. I am so proud of him. OH, I just bought Nate the huge Britax car seat that holds kids up to 80 lbs. It's a 5 latch car seat. Rob thinks I'm crazy and that the booster he was in is enough protection. I feel he is so much more protected in the Britax. I just worry about my babies ALL the time!!


I love you Nate, my big, awesome boy!!!

SURPRISE!!!

My sister Sandi is a teacher and started back to work a few weeks ago. Every year when she starts back she turns VERY crabby!!! I'm scared of her.. hehe!!! Anyway, I felt bad for her because her summer was over so I called mom and told her we needed to surprise her with a little gift. Well, that little gift turned into a big gift. That's right, Sandi got a new Coach purse.... my mom ROCKS!!!! She was so excited!!! I had just bought myself a new Coach purse myself so I thought we needed to get her one too!! My mom is so sweet and giving!!! Nate, Addison and Ty also gave her a gift card to Sonic because we all know that every teacher deserves "HAPPY HOUR" every single day!

This is the purse I bought for myself... way cute!!!



Happy school year Sandi!!!

Nate's Kinder Open House

Nate and his teacher, Mrs. Bronstad

Nate, Ty, Daddy... Addison wouldn't take a picture.


Lindsey and Nate








Nate and Lindsey know each other from HIS Kids. Nate is excited that she is in his class. I think he has a crush on her. Isn't she cute?

I was ssoooo excited when I saw that Nate was in Bronstad's class. I had met her over a year ago and absolutely loved her personality.. very similar to mine. HEHE!!!! I knew that when Nate started school I sooo wanted her to teach him. YEAH!!!!
