"I'M excited!" Can't you tell?? I like my teacher...same as Mats had for 1st grade YaY!

Let's go class! Thanks Ms. Annesi. I Jokingly said to her..." take care of my baby :( ", but I really did mean it. I was going to miss him!

more suMMer fun to catch up......here goes

Made these Harry potter wands for Madison and Riley and Miranda and for my boys. They were made out of paper and hot glue!

The girls also made these one night at a sleepover at our house.

Went to the Aquarium in Awatukee.

"Look Mom! A slug Bug!" Everytime we ride as a family in the car we play SlugBug. But our game includes PT cruisers because the kids used to get those confused with slug bugs And We play Scions just because...... they look crazy and jeep...because it has a tire on the back of it! Our kids are so good at recognizing these cars. It is so fun to play with them!

Night time swimming at Grandma and GRandpa's house = FUN!!

Happy Birthay Grandma!!







Madison took a sewing class this summer and made a bunch of things (backpack, decorative pillow, apron) And the big project was a quilt! She did such a good job. I need to post a picture of it and the rest of her things she made.

Vancey Pants

He is getting so big. I love EverythinG about this little man. He is fascinated with Loud car, truck or Motorcycle sounds. He will hear the Garbage truck while we are inside of the house and he'll say, "garage truk". It is so cute! We make sure when we hear it to go running out front to watch it pick up the trash in front of our house and down the street. He loves it. He is also a little afraid of it so I have to hold him when he hears it. He also will hear a motorcycle and he will say, "morocycle". He speaks soooo good. I love it when he say this..."tank Mama" it means, thanks mom. He is starting to have clearer conversations with his brother and Sister. He'll go up to Davin and say, " Hi Debin", which means Hi davin. He can say so much and he copys his older siblings all the time and it is so cute. He likes to pretend to talk on the phone and when I ask him who he is talking to he'll say, "Papa" which is my Dad. I love him so much!
