Elijahs 8 years old

Lydia had her Marble dog here, and they had so much fun together, they are 2 peas in a pod....

I find it hard to believe that Elijah is 8 years old, time goes by so fast!!! He is going to have his birthday party this weekend, but we celebrated his big day with our friends, who got Elijah a skateboard, which Nathan wasn't excited about, but I told Nathan its not about him, then my parents were here, and he got some gameboy games, an outfit and a mp3 player.....I think he had a good day!!!

Aquarium and Cheeburger/cheeburger

The guys with there hamburgers.....They love them!!!!

My parents came for the long weekend, they were able to watch Isaac in t-ball and get a game ball and celebrate Elijahs 8th birthday....We went to the the Aquarium, and Cheeburger Cheesburger where Elijah ate all of 1/2 pound burger plus some of Papas, Isaac ate all his and some of Papas (isaacs was NOT a 1/2 pound, but he ate all of it which is still impressive for him), Papa didn't quite make it and Nathan ate all of his full one pound burger and still wanting more!!!

Step up and serve...

Lydia and mom....Ellijah getting counted, and Him and a school mate....

Isaac first day and other pictures

Lydia and her many different looks!!

Isaacs first day of school and first t-ball game of the year!!!

Isaac started school this week. He is going to Kindergarten readiness, its for kids whose birthdays are May-Sept. and who are already 5 but still alittle young for kindergarten. He is so excited, this coming week will be his first full week of going everyday all day. We already had a hard time getting him up Friday, he really didn't want to wake up.....Then he started t-ball again, trying to survive the heat of the games, for the last 15 days its been over 100 degrees here, its so miserable. I told Nathan that a BIG snow storms sounds great right now!!!(BTW, his t-ball team are the tigers!!) Then there are a few of Lydia, one in her new pretty red dress, she thought she was so pretty. One with her favorite baby doll, and her new baby stroller that she LOVES. Lydia also got all my "workout" head bands out and put them on her head all by herself....Then the last one is one of her in an outfit she choose to wear, she wanted her other cloths off and wanted the polka dot shirt on with the flower pants. She has a mind of her own and gets so mad at times!!!

Football

This is a really short blog, I just took a couple pictures of Elijah in his football gear, that we just bought and thought I would share. Don't get me started on how sad I am that he is old enough to play!! And that he and Isaac were enjoying watching ESPN with their dad this morning, I was like don't you want to watch a "kids show" and Elijah was like "no I want to watch this and watch them play football"!!!

The other picture is Lydia feeding baby monk, its so cute she feeding him and hums to him, lydia isn't talking alot, but she fums ABC, or Twinkle Twinkle all the time(btw its the same tune, so you choose what she is humming)

First day of school/birthday

A couple random pictures...The boys before dinner, and Isaac and Lydia loving there mornings together.

The pinata was hit so hard it fell of the cord so Nathan was darning enough to hold it, we had some strong baseball hitters at this party, and then the craziness of the slide, do boys listen to rules??? After someone got hurt they were done for the night

Isaac and his buddies, and Lydia enjoying the cake, or should I say she is more like her mom and LOVES the frosting the most!!!!

Pirate Isaac and his two different cakes....
Elijah's first day of school

This last week has been a busy week for us. Elijah started 2Nd grade, and he loves his teacher. She is the wife of his basketball coach last year. We are very excited about the upcoming year.

Then our little Isaac man turned 5 years old, and breaking my heart. He had 2 birthday cakes. We had cake and ice cream with friends, and Lesley and Hannah King on his birthday, then his big Pirate birthday party on Friday. We had LOTS of boys here, and they went down the pirate slide, ate BEN 10 cake (BTW, they didn't have pirate cake at Sam's), and hit the pinata..LOTS OF FUN!!!
