Apple picking

A couple weeks ago it was a nice fall crisp day so we decided to take advantage of this and go apple picking with Shanna and Dave and Mackenzie. All the kids had so much fun, Liam was great and slept in the ergo while we did our apple picking. The kids got there faces painted and had apple cider donuts! Such a fun day we may even go back towards the end of the season to get some more apples.

Time for cereal already?

After seeing the GI specialist about a week ago we got the go ahead to give Liam some cereal if we felt he needed it. We have to make sure we read the labels of everything because he can't have anything with milk or soy right now. Gerber rice cereal contains some soy, luckily beechnut does not contain soy or milk. We had noticed that when Liam was taking his last bottle of the night he was wanting more and more almost up to 8oz. that's alot of liquid for his little belly so tonight we gave him his first taste of cereal. he did really well with it. I can't believe how fast the time is going. It makes me sad that he isn't a newborn anymore, but happy that he is growing and developing everyday.

Lemonade anyone?

On Saturday we had a yard sale, along with the Wicks family. Brady and David decided that they wanted to have a Lemonade stand. They did a great job "manning their booth" and Brady being the smart buisness man he is always made sure he got the money first before he gave them their lemonade. The boys made $4.00 which they split between themselves and Cameron and Shaun. Brady and Cameron were both Psyched to put their money in their piggy banks!

School Days!


This week Brady started back to school and Cameron got to join in the fun. Cameron goes to a 2 day program, Mondays and Fridays and Brady goes Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday.


Brady was super excited to be going back and didn't skip a beat, He hopped out of the car and said "I'm back!" and ran into school. When I picked him up he said he couldn't wait for tomorow.

Cameron had an open house of Thursday to meet the teachers and see the classroom. He was a little shy at first but loved palying in the sand table, they had a red tablespoon measure that he was playing with and for some reason he couldn't wait to go back the next day to play with. So he got up this morning and asked if it was time to go. It was only 7am so no it wasn't time to go. we left around 8:45 and he asked that Brady come with us to drop him off, all he kept talking about was the "red thing" he wanted to play with. When we got there he went in put his bag on his hook walked over to the teacher to give hom the form I asked him to give her, and then headed for the sand table where he found the "red thing" right away. he then looked at Brady and me and said bye! see you later! and we left. I think even brady was surprised at how well Cameron did. When I picked him up the teachers said he had a fabulous day and tried everything and raised his hand during circle time, our little man is growing up.
I am so proud of both of my boys, they both love school and are well behaved when they are there, they are growing up so fast, sometimes I wish I could just stop time for a little while!
