Wild Welch West Play

Jack's 1st grade play was on Thursday and it was really cute. It was called the Wild Welch West. Remember, he goes to Welch Elementary...anyway, it was cute play and he was a cute little cowboy. Drew made it his job when it was over to steal that hat. See below...lol

Isn't he cute? His best friend from class Regan is right behind him

And...he got the hat...

Happy Birthday Christy!

September 25th is Christy's Birthday and so the boys wanted to go out and pick out something special for Christy all by themselves and they did just that. I must admit I have very thoughtful little boys. They like to buy presents and they like to buy "pretty" things. :) Friday night Dad and Christy came over for a birthday party because they both had to work on Saturday and because the boys are with their Dad this weekend so we did cake and ice cream on Friday night. Here are a few pictures of the party. Enjoy...

Jack with his fall scented candle since, "it is fall and all" :)
Drew with the glass slipper that Christy can put her "Bumpa Ring" in, which is her engagement ring, in case you were wondering...lol

Here are the gifts...so cute. :)

Happy Birthday Christy! We love you!

Game 2...Victory!

It was a 8-6 victory for Jack and his team on Saturday. It was super hot but it was a great game. The boys played well together and Jack scored a goal! I think it is going to be an exciting season!

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble...

I took this picture last night while the boys were outside playing. Look at this picture, close your eyes and flash forward 10 years and think about the trouble I am going to be in when this is a real jeep...YIKES!

Croup the PillowPet

There are a lot of things I have learned about my youngest child. He is late to show bloomer in a lot of things. For example, learning his letters, writing his name, throwing a ball, but getting croup? Aren't you suppose to get that when you're a baby? lol Nope, not my stubborn child. He got it at 4.5 years old. Poor little guy. We were up all night Saturday night and Sunday morning I brought him to Urgent Care where he was diagnosed and prescribed steroids. We then went to Walmart to get a movie and some cookie dough ice cream. So I hope if you were there Sunday morning you were no where between the ice cream section and the RedBox Movie Rental because croup was floating around...sorry. lol
Anyway, on our way out they had a display of pillowpets, which Drew has been asking faithfully for for a about year but I haven't gotten because I didn't want to order it off tv. So, of course I bought him one and we so affectionately named him Croup.
Well, Drew is better and he went back to school today. The cough is lingering but he no longer sounds like a seal. I really wish there had been a seal pillowpet! :)

We've got our first loose tooth...finally!!

When I say loose tooth I am saying the word loose very loosely...lol
Jack discovered on Saturday that his bottom tooth is loose and it is but it has a long way to go. He doesn't care though, he's just happy it's loose and it will be out before he turns 7! Can you tell he's the last one of his friends to lose his teeth? lol
We'll keep you posted...

Soccer has started

Saturday, September 18 was Jack's first soccer game. He played a hard game but in the end they suffered a hard loss of 8-2. It was about 95 degrees at 3pm game time so he was exhausted. He was sweating by 2:35 during warm-up. Look at that smile on his face after all that. Such a good kid! :) Great game, Jack!
