Update time!!

On August 6, 2012, Jacob started first grade. We missed back to school night because we were relaxing in Tucson. While Jacob had first day jitters, he still did great. Everyone from his church class, plus his two best friends were in his class. Now that school has started, Jacob knows that his birthday is around the corner. So he is in full birthday mode! Jacob is my quiet boy, although he is loud and wild at home. I sure appreciate his willingness to help and make others happy!! :-)



Dylan with his teacher Ms. Chris

Dylan started school two weeks after Jacob on August 20Th. Dylan is getting so big to me. He is by far my most independent child, as well as my most friendly! He has no problem talking to people. It has taken me a while to learn that Dylan thinks he is going through life a super hero. Always jumping off furniture , fighting the bad guys and saving the day. While this can make trips to target, the mall or any restaurant difficult, I wouldn't change a thing about him!!





This is poor Ryan on Jacob's first day of school. Who has a temp of 103 degrees in August? Poor boy!

Then we have have Mr. Ryan. He definitely has us all wrapped around his finger. Whenever he gets into trouble John and I race to our phones to see who can intagram it faster. He has developed a love for all things Thomas the Train (or his choo choo's as he calls them). He is still our buddy which basically means John or I get to spent 2 hours in nursery every week. Sweet! :)


In fact with so many different personalities we thought, why not add another one to the mix...


Baby boy Dosdall is on his way. In fact, at the ultra sound, this baby wanted to make sure we had no questions he was a boy. You couldn't help but fall in love with him. Can't wait to meet our new little guy! :)
