2 Years of Po

Our little Kyle (aka Po) turned 2 last week. He gets more charming every day if you ask me. We've come a long way...

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

More School, etc.

I need to post Neil's 1st day of preschool before he starts kindergarten... He was a little nervous, but has enjoyed his preschool so far. After his 1st day of school, I asked him if he wanted to go ride bikes. He said, "No, I want to jump in a pile of leaves." Apparently since school has started, it must be fall & time for jumping in leaves.. That will come soon enough!

A couple of other random things that I won't get around to if I don't post now:

Hike to Cecret Lake up Little Cottonwood Canyon on Labor Day with cousins.. beautiful & fun day despite the crowds.

Josh's Incredible Edible Insect Project

Each of the kindergartners at Josh's school are to make an edible insect for the "Bug Show". We came up with a "campfire fly". It was fun to put together & fun to go see all the other creations. I am already brainstorming for next year when we will get to make another one with Neil.

1st Day of School

Finally, the day has arrived-- Josh has been SO excited to start Kindergarten. I thought I would be more emotional, but he was so excited that it just made me excited for him. We got up early and made french toast by Josh's request & he was ready to go. When we got to the school, he quickly found some buddies and joined in a huge game of tag. I hope he's this excited for school every year.

June 2010

I'm so far behind, I don't even know how to catch up... Its been a busy summer that has passed much too quickly.

Neil turned 4. We saw Toy Story 3 for his birthday. He enjoyed every moment of his day.. can you tell?

Kyle got a haircut by his loving older brother.

He didn't seem to mind.

We ripped out our lawn & installed sprinklers. You'll have to see my July post(assuming I do one) for the after pictures..

We took a last minute trip to Sea World. We decided on a Tuesday morning at 11am that we were going to go, spent the day scrambling to get ready and left at 10pm the same day. It turned out great. We went to Sea World, Old Town, Coronado, Mission Beach, Cabrillo Point, etc. I only wished we could have stayed longer..

Kyle's 1 Year Photos

My friend Sarah took some pics of Kyle just after he turned 1. I love how they turned out (despite how late I am in posting them). I'm glad we used the old Evergreen park or princess park as the venue. It has been my favorite park to take the kids & sadly it is now closed for reconstruction. I hope it doesn't lose its charm in the renovation.. Anyway, I do love this boy..
