Play hard...Crash hard!

Wow, what a busy day! Ryan long ago gave up taking naps so imagine my surprise when I walked in and found him sound asleep surrounded by Thomas the Train and friends. He was at the gym with me at 8am, followed by preschool from 9am-11am, and then he got to play and have lunch with his friend Bronson. Now I just hope he will be ready for bed tonight and not keep us up until midnight!

First Day of Preschool

Ryan's first day of preschool was an exciting one! He could hardly wait to get there. It was a bitter sweet day for Mom. She was so glad that he was eager to learn and spend some time with his friends, but sad in the same moment knowing her baby was off to school. He looked so grown up walking into school with his friend Bronson!

Life Flys By

Today I received a request to sign up for first quarter Parent Teacher Conferences. I can not believe that almost nine weeks has past since I sent off my two sweet girls for another year of school. It just seems to me that time has speed up. I long for those days that never seemed to end. When Barney and Elmo where life savers and cherrios was a food group all its own. Ryan has seemed to grow into his own"person" recently. He is no longer my baby but my little boy. I cried when I realized that in January he will be a Sunbeam. Everyday I am amazed at how my children are growing and how much they are learning. The other day Ryan started hunting for bugs and telling me that we need to "slam it!" I love and enjoy everyday that I am the mother of three wonderful children. Even on the days I want to send them to bed at 4pm.

First Day of School

Makenna and Emily are back in school! School started on August 11th. I can't believe that I have a fourth and second grader. They both love their teachers and were excited to see thier friends. I asked them what their favorite thing to do at school was and they said recess...go figure!!!
