Tooth!

Kristen popped her first tooth tonight!  Here's a good close-up of her mouth!  haha  I think the other lower front tooth is going to be through soon, too.  We shall see!

Kristen's 6 month pictures :)

We held a photo shoot for Kristen yesterday on her 6 month birthday!  The red checked blanket is a family tradition and the blue and white dress is the same dress I wore for my 6 month pictures.  She was such a good girl and smiled very pretty! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ethan, the Preschooler!

Ethan LOVES school!  He's such a big boy and is really enjoying the Monkey room!  Here are some pictures from his first day,  September 13th.

JD, the Kindergartner!

On Tuesday, September 6th, JD began Kindergarten.  He had a GREAT week and really loves it!  I was a little worried that he would be too tired, being in all day every day Kdg, but he seems to be adjusting well.  He has a fantastic teacher and we're looking forward to a great year!  Here are a few pics from his first day:

Yum, yum!

Kristen had her first taste of cereal tonight.  She wasn't so sure about it at first, but after a few bites she did like it!

Time goes so quickly!!

I can't believe Kristen is already 5 months...and my little JD is going to Kindergarten...and Eman is starting preschool!!  Where has the time gone?!

Life is busy and exciting!  Kristen is rolling all over the place!  She found her feet on the way to FL in August, and has since been infatuated with pulling on her toes.  She is the best baby...so easy going, sleeps about 10 hours at night, and loves to be loved on by her brothers!

JD is starting Kdg in two days.  I can't believe it!  He had the chance to meet his teacher and check out his room this past Thursday.  I think he's going to love it, although when we got to the door of his classroom he said, "Mommy, I might cry."  I tried to be positive telling him he was going to learn so much and meet new friends, but at the same time I was thinking ME TOO!!  He's getting so big and is such a good helper.  He loves his little sister so much...it's so cute to watch!  He and Ethan are best buds...always playing together.  He is so kind and sweet and silly!

Ethan is growing like a weed!  I think he's shot up a few inches this summer.  He's so smart and loving...he's my cuddlebug.  He loves to sleep in and snuggle in my bed.  It's very sweet.  I am so excited for him to begin Preschool.  He is going to be in the Monkey room...appropriate, huh? :) 


We are back to the grind soon, but I'll try to keep things updated.  Here are a few recent pictures I love. :)
