First Day of School

These little guys couldn't wait for school to start! They just love every second of it. So does mom. Except for the obligatory first week of school sickness and ear infection that comes along with it. This first weekend has been full of naps and medication, but it is worth it. Kyler and Jack are growing and learning so much everyday. It is so great to see them come home with artwork and praises from their teachers.

What's new?

We've been up to no good this summer. Lots of swimming and fun activities as well as movies and games. We've stayed pretty close to home this summer, but we've had lots of fun times. Jack decided that he wants to talk, afterall. Fun! He also LOVES McDonald's ice cream cones. Kyler is enjoying spending time with Mommy since Jack has lots of therapy this summer. We get to see the pets at Petsmart all of the time. We also stopped napping during the day, as you can tell from the above photo. We're just having too much fun!

Tonsillectomy and Adnoidectomy Follies

I have been meaning to put these pictures on for a while. These are the cutest muscle shirts that Great Aunt Connie and Great Uncle Ron gave the boys a while back. So fun! Thanks for these. Okay, updates on the boys:

Jack is TALKING!!! He is saying "no" and "all done" and "nigh night" and "bye bye" and "please" and "car" and "go" and "banana" and "juice" and "water" and I could go on all day. We are so excited!!! He's loving the pool and is learning to swim so quickly. He jumps from the edge with no hesitation. My little frog.

Kyler had his surgery last Monday. He is doing great. Just a few complications with being allergic to his pain killers, but he ate a cheeseburger and fries today, so I think we're on the downhill slope! He is also loving the pool. He's not as fearless as Jack, but he's no girl :)

We're just loving playing in the pool and having a hot summer!

Last Day of School!

Jack and Kyler's last day of preschool was today! I can't believe it! They had a final assembly where the classes got up and sang a few songs and then had a virtual scrapbook of pictures for parents to see. It was sooooo cute. Jack tried to sing and do the movements and Kyler was hilarious! He was singing so loud and clapping at the end of each song. He motivated the parents to start clapping at one point! We can't wait for school to start again in August!

Phoenix Zoo

We finally took the boys to the zoo a week ago and they loved it. Kyler liked seeing the petting zoo, but not actually touching any animals. Jack wanted nothing to do with it. They loved watching the giraffes, tigers, elephants and lions from afar. The carousel is always such a fun attraction, too!

First Day of School!!

Happy Birthday!

The age of 3 is perfect! Kyler was able to blow out his candles and they LOVED their cake. Thanks to all of our friends and family for our pre-birthday party on Sunday. We have tons of new toys and clothes to have fun with. So exciting! Jack and Kyler are so lucky and the 2 happiest kids ever!!
