The Soccer-Mom Era has Begun!

Go PYTHONS!!!

Garrett and Preston have waited all week for Tuesday... Game Day... to come!

Of course we have to start with a pre-game huddle!

Preston started out as goal-ee and unknowingly entertained the sideline crowd with his dance moves while all the soccer action was down at the other end of the field.

(Honestly, I understand, sometimes it's minutes before you see the ball!)

"Coach, time out... potty break?"

Penalty kick.

"You are the wall, be the wall."

And during the game, the wrestling match of two 20 month old babies was happening on the sidelines... there isn't a nursery class provided? Really?

Proud papas

Garrett was goalee and didn't see a whole lot of action either, so why not do some pull ups while you wait? Swing a little, work the ab muscles, got to get a workout in sometime.

Sideline throw! Go Garrett

So for the next six to seven weeks, Tuesdays and Thursdays, we will be on the sidelines cheering on our Little-Fields!

Ra ra ra ra ra.... gooooo Pythons!

So we did it and caved and added a little 3 pound, black and white, Japanese Chin puppy our family. He's the sweetest, cutest, perfect little guy. (Oh, and he doesn't bark! bonus) We are so happy and excited to bring him to our home.

So if you want to come say hi...

Charlie would love to give you a snuggle and a big kiss!!

Kindergarten Here We Come!

Wow, we have Kindergartener's! I don't feel old enough to:

- have boys in school,

- coordinate carpool

- and make sure you get your homework done,

but here it is.

They were so excited to get up and get their favorite shirts of their new school clothes on and get their backpacks ready.

(Shh, they may be empty now, but soon they will be full of homework, art projects and show-n-tell)

Look how handsome!

What a smile!

Outside the school. There weren't many tears dropping them off. We did that the night before with father's blessing from Matthew and talking to the boys about school, new friends and all the new things they're going to learn. Wow, it still chokes me up just thinking about the new life experiences that are just starting.

Preston found his cubbie and put his backpack away.

The boys with their teach Mrs. Lyman. She is the coolest, sweetest teacher and already loves the boys. They call themselves "Lyman-ites" and are so excited to be in her class.

Preston at his table. He was so excited to meet his table-mates and make new friends.

Garrett immediately started doing the centers at his table with the two friends already there.

They already had homework after school which was very exciting to start

(we'll see how long the homework honeymoon lasts)

My sweet boys, stop growing up! Mommy wants you to stay this age forever!

I know you can't, so just promise me you'll always come home and give me a hug when you walk in the door and I promise this home will always be your safe place to land. Good luck on all your adventures to come, I love you.
