Boys Being Boys

 I found some random photos of the boys that I don't think have been posted yet.
We got Wyatt up onto Jack's old bike last weekend to try and get him to start riding with pedals.
 But it didn't last long. Even though he is growing out of the little red bike he still enjoys just pushing and coasting as opposed to pedaling. But I'm not surprised, none of our kids ever enjoyed anything with pedals.
 Wyatt would much rather paint with Daddy.
 I love his little face and that look of concentration.
 The final product is not too bad either!!
 I try hard not to force the boys to play together too much, so it's always nice to see them getting along. Wyatt would do just about anything Jack does.
 Hmmm, too many tablets and devises.
 Jason has been collecting these blocks over the past couple of years and the boys have really enjoyed building with them on the floor, but Jason took it to a new level by introducing a dice rolling game that they can incorporate the blocks and mini figures into.


 They are loving it!!
 And I just love this face! We spent an afternoon at the boy's school for their Fall Festival. They all had a great time and didn't want to leave. This is what Wyatt got with the tickets he earning playing games.
 A solider at heart.
 Several weeks ago we attempted a hike at the Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield.  The boys seemed to have a lot of fun so I think we'll go back and do it again and attempt to get farther.


 I might have posted this one already but this is Wyatt's new Angry Birds bedding.
 This kid insists on still wearing his Spiderman costume from two years ago. He looks more like the Hulk bursting out of it than Spiderman.
Making the most of a sunny afternoon waiting for the brothers to get off the bus!

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

The Olympics

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I've last posted a message. I guess it's been due to a combination of being really busy and not having much to say! Is that a contradiction? We've been letting Jack stay up late since Friday so that he could enjoy the Olympics. He really enjoyed the opening ceremony and has been in awe of the gymnastics. We went to a BBQ on Sunday night and just as we were getting ready to leave they put the ladies gymnastics on and all the kids say and watched. We had to drag Jack away. In other news, we're getting ready to do a really crazy thing. After only two months of having no debt and house payment, we're putting in an offer on a new home! We really had no plans to do this, but when we went to visit our friends on Sunday, we decided to drive around and look at the houses there. We had looked in there back before Ethan was born and fell in love with the place so we thought we'd just take a look and see how much i...

Busy week

It's been a busy week with little things here and there, which is getting me ready for the busy summer ahead of us with gymnastics, swimming and all Ethan's therapies. Whew, I need a break from just thinking about it. We did have a nice walk down to our community playground this afternoon. Ethan couldn't stop laughing on the swings and the slide (he couldn't get enough of the slide) and Jack made a little friend! Great afternoon. Speaking of therapies, Ethan starts his occupational therapy next week and I'm so excited. We got the therapy notes back from his evaluation and, while I'm not positive on how I'm reading it, the scores say from poor to very poor. We have been very lucky that Ethan hasn't had any medical issues and so far he seems to be doing well with responding to his therapies, so I really want to make sure he has the best of everything. Today has just made me a little blue thinking about Ethan not being 100% of what other kids are and ...
