Jackson's big 5!

Happy birthday Jackson!

Jackson was so excited to turn 5. He got to celebrate by bringing cake pops to his morning preschool at Verrado Elementary and at Mom's afternoon preschool. He also got a special breakfast with just Dad. He was so excited to go to breakfast and work with Dad. Jackson also had a big race car party.

What's better than a big party with lots of friends and a pinata?

Silly NuNi

We had a family bbq for Labor day at Grandma's house, of course we also went swimming. Grandma had goggles for all the kids. They were so excited that the goggles came with nose and ear plugs. I'm not sure any of the plugs made it into the pool but they had fun wearing them around the house. "Silly NuNi," as Lucy said about herself, probably did look the silliest.

Look how we've grown

First day of school

Here are my babies on the first day of school.
Harrison= 1st grade

Jackson= preschool

Lucy= doesn't want to be left out.

The boys were so excited to start school. Lucy was so excited too, until she realized Daddy was leaving with BOTH boys and NOT her. Then she cried and cried and cried. Harrison and Jackson had a great first day of school. And Lucy did too after she stopped crying.
