First Day of School

Tyler has lost his 3rd tooth now but the first one on the top! He lost it at school and he was so exctied when he got home that day. Brian asked him how many teeth he actaully lost since the space was so big! His teeth are really small. Here is Brandon and his friend Sam on the first day...Brandon is a poop for pictures always. Here he is covering eyes as if I won't be able to get a licture of him if he can't see me. What a pain!

Here is Ethan in the car on the way to take Brandon to the first day of preschool. He did pretty well and he likes it a lot! Tyler had a rough beinning on his first day but now things are great. His 7th Birthday is tomorrow and he is really excited. I am liking the time at home with just Ethan....he has been saying some funny stuff. I took a bit of his food the other day and he looked up at me and told me, "don't you dare, momma!" Hmmm....I wodner where he learned that. From Brandon of course, he is really bossy toward Ethan. Ethan can hold his own though, if Brandon makes him mad, he will wrestle him to the ground! Tyler is learning math and learning to read more and more. Brandon just loves to be where all of his firends are at preschool. He got mad this week when he had to stay at home one day because he was throwing up the night before. He does not like to miss anything.

Ethan Turns 2

This was his favorite gift that day. He playing it for like 40 minutes straight. I am not so sure he shared very well either. Here he is with his cousins Brooke Lambert (the miracle that day) and Heath Thompson.

Ethan turned 2 years old on August 25th! We had a little party and had SOME fun but some stress as well. So my sister Heather parked on the hill next to the park that we went to for the party and had her little girl in a stroller up the hill a ways. Anyway, the break broke while she turned away for a couple seconds and Brooke, her baby, strolled down the hill by herself! Very scary and we called 911 so they could make sure that she was fine which she was. Thank goodness.

So Ethan and all the other kids had a great time and had no clue what else what went on!

I love this picture here at the bottom. One reason is the ice cream man came once a week to our neighborhood here and it will remind me of that....losing money but watching the joy and excitement of my kids each week, you would think it was Santa I swear. They would come RUNNING AS FAST AS LIGHTNING to me and scream and yell that he was here and they needed money. Brandon was expecially funny as I thought he might have a heart attack almost everytime. The other reason is that I love how Ethan held the thing right in front of his face when I told the boys to show me their ice cream, he is just at a very funny age. Challenging , but funny. Just as a side note, he amazes me because he already knows his colors. I don't think that my other kids knew their colors so soon. He is at an accelerated learning level from having the two older boys around all the time.

Summer Fun
