Kindergarten really??

Well it happen Joseph started kindergarten today. I am still in denial, but I am extremely proud of him. He made a new friend. He said they became friends because they both have angry bird backpacks.

 

 

He requested pancakes for his first day of school special breakfast

 

 

So handsome

 



 

 

Putting his backpack under is cubby.

Dayton Dragons game

At the beginning of the summer Joe and I sat down and made a list of all the things we want to do this summer. Taking Joseph to a Dayton Dragon game was on the list so we went. We had a great time. I gave Joseph $10 for cleaning the playroom. So he had a great time eating all the junk food he could buy for $10.

We had pretty good seats. The only bad thing was foul balls were pretty scary.

 

Me and my sweet boy

 

Nice expression Joe

 

Got to get a corn dog

 

End of the night

 

Well summer is coming to an end and we have only one more adventure to mark off our list.



Emma is 3 months

Happy 3 months baby girl!!

Emma did not want to take a picture this morning.

Maybe this is not too bad

If I stop fussing she will stop taking my picture!!

Wow I can't believe you are 3 months seems like yesterday you were born. Your brothers adore you and you don't mind them sometimes. You are a great night sleeper but not so great during the day. You are doing great breastfeeding. We are a 1/4 done baby girl. We will make it a year!! You just moved up to size 2 diapers. Size 1 still fit but they were getting a little snug. You are still wearing mostly 3 month clothes. No shoes yet because you have the smallest feet.

No end of school party but a picnic with daddy

So today was supposed to be our big end of school party. We bought games, got the bouncy house set up, cooked 30 hot dogs. And then last night Joseph comes down with a tummy virus. So being a responsible parent I canceled the party last night. So this morning Joseph comes running into our room telling us he is all better and ready for the party. Poor little guy was very sad when I told him there would be no party. So the next best thing is having a picnic with daddy. I only took a few pictures. Not sure why but I forgot to take some with everyone eating.

Come down the slide Levi

I see you!!

Dare Devil

Miss Emma slept the whole time

Lunch time

School supply date

I love starting new traditions with my family. Our new family tradition is each kid gets to go school supply shopping and lunch with mommy or daddy alone. So today Joseph and I went to eat lunch and then we went to Target to get his school supplies. He was so excited to go without the babies. Sometimes I forget that I really do need to spend one on one time with each kid.

Mommy and the big kindergartner

McDonalds for lunch

Then Target for supplies.

I love chalkboard paint

I love taking pictures of the first and last day of school. I love to see how much they have grown through the year. Well this year I decided to make a sign for Joseph to hold.

chalkboard paint, old picture frame, paint brushes, and of course chalk

Finished product. I can't wait to get a picture of Joseph holding it his first day of kindergarten.

Florida vacation part 1

What a great week we had in Florida. My parents were able to meet us there and man were they a lot of help. See everyone is on vacation except Joe. He is actually working, but he is able to take us along with him. We were able to stay at the Waterscape condos. If you ever go to Ft Walton you should stay there. It is so much much. They have 3 pools and a lazy river.

So glad to have this big guy back!!

Levi not sure about the gulf

Getting braver

Miss Emma sleeping at the beach in her cute bathing suit.

Haley was also a big help. She swam alot with Levi when I was busy with Emma.



The lily pads. Joseph loves the lily pads. Last year he was not big enough to get on them but this year that is all he wanted to do. One thing I love about Joseph is that he never gives up or discourage.



Got knocked down
