Jackson's first music observation

He's apparently quiet popular with the ladies.

I love that the whole class ran over to the boy who does whatever he wants and seems to be in his own little world here.

Happy Birthday Mia!

Here it is! The best birthday party ever!

Chuck E. Cheese!

Mia was so extrememly pleased that she got to have her birthday party here. I tried to convince her otherwise but there just wasn't any budging. It always came back to Chuck E.

It was a fun time for her and I am happy she had the experience.

Mia is such a blessing in our lives. She is creative, always eager to learn, an excellent reader already, a fun big sister and our beautiful princess. She loves life and easily laughs.

We are very thankful that she is ours!

Potty Talk

The other day Jack was in the bathroom going potty. The kind where he needs help at the end. He always yells, "MOM, I'M DONE!" So I can then say, "I'm coming!" It has to go just like that or he will remind me. I went in and saw that it was a little more messy than usual and I said, "Ewwhh, messy!" Jack then said, "I disgust myself!" At first it made me sad that he would say such a thing about himself and I flashed forward to his future. I imagined him being sadly insecure. I did tell him he shouldn't say that about himself. I later told Colin and he just laughed. I don't think Jack said it because he was insecure and now when I think of it I laugh. He says things are disgusting ALL the time! Especially dinner, even if he loves it. Crazy kid!

Halloween Fun!

Happy Halloween!

We had a GREAT time with our GREAT friends again this year!

Mia was Angelina Ballerina. Jack was a Ninja Turtle-Leonardo. He didn't want to wear the mask or bring the sword. Not sure why. Cole was a little puppy. He is crying in this picture but actually had a fun time.

Hope you all had a great time too!
