pre-SCHOOL

Although I feel like a "graduation" every year is silly, it was still so cute to see my little guy in his program and they did such a good job with it!  They even had a red carpet to walk down once you received your diploma.   You were so happy Zane and did really good with all your songs and you even got to throw your hat up into the air at the end

In school Zane got to celebrate 100 days of school with a "100 day party"   He was so excited about it, been talking about it for days!  This 100 dollar bill came home with what you would buy with 100 dollars...so cute!

The picture of the crumbled paper is the way I would find Zane's papers 90% of the time, shoved in his bag...seriously is it that hard to put them in a bag nice and straight??

On the last day of school Zane was sent home with a beach ball with all of his classmates signatures. I love it, what a great idea. I especially love the penmanship.  Yay summer here we come!

month two

My baby girl is now two months old!  She is doing so good and is still so much fun!  She gets a little fussy every night right about bed time, so her and daddy are fighting for my attention, sorry honey, but she usually wins...it won't last for long (and sometimes that makes me a little sad).  She loves her swing, hates her carseat!   stats: 9 lbs. 2 oz.(20%) 22" long(50%) 

HaPPy BiRthdAy NoAh... a "super" superhero party

We had such a fun 3rd Birthday Bash for noah!   He was very excited to have a superhero party and he told grandma and aunt Kell that he only wanted Hulk stuff when they asked what he wanted for his birthday.   We had a fun superhero games, a superman flying photo op, muscles included, we made capes, masks, and cuffs, it really was a super time!  Noah was as happy as can be.  We also left out the diapers the night of his birthday for the "superheros" to take away and they were so nice to leave Hulk underwear in their place.   He has been doing so so well and I dare say...is POTTYTRAINED!  It went a 100 times easier than Zane.  I am so happy that my sweet little boy is 3 years old, I love him so much!

what happens in vegas...

We got to tag along with Ryan this week to Vegas as he went to the car auctions. We had a lot of fun and stayed at a really nice time share place which worked great kids having separate rooms and a kitchen!  Since Ryan was gone during the most part of the day, we hung out at the pool in 97* weather.  Bella got to meet her new cousin Joe, my aunt(who is more like my sister) Mindy came to hang out with her new babe and her boys, my mom and Shalise were also down there helping out, it was a great, short, but great time.

Bella's Blessing

We blessed Bella on Sunday May 3rd,  it was a really great day! Ryan did a great job and it was neat to have the support of our small group of families (well hardly small... about 40 people) to spend the afternoon with us on her special day!
