No more training wheels!!!

WAY TO GO TANNER!!!
Chris taught Tanner to ride his bike without training wheels a few months ago!!

Sam loves Tanner's helmet..."hat on", "hat on" then he signs "please"!

Uh-oh this could be bad...

Tanner was gentle...and Sam can hold his own...you think it's his gurth?

He shoots...he scores!!

In a Nano-second...look what happens

I SWEAR...I only walked out for 1 minute!

I'm Gonna Miss This

I was standing on the front porch yesterday morning...in my p.j.'s...still...watching the dog potty(i know)...while the boys ran wild in the front yard half dressed...desperately trying to get out the door to go on a walk...nothing complicated...no shower necessary...just a stroll

then

the neighbor walked by...we talked a minute and she said...

"I MISS THOSE DAYS!"

(both her kids are in school all day)...

huh...
I walked in and started CRYING...

and it made me think how lucky I am to be home with the boys...

we may not have tons of STUFF

but

this is better than stuff...

LOVE THIS SONG... totally makes me BOO-HOO!

Back to School

It's offical we have all started back to school!

Tanner is at EUMK in the 4's...
he told me Thursday morning in carpool line...
"I love school Mom but 3 days well it just makes me real tired...tommorow can we just have some down time...you know maybe play Legos and watch Tom and Jerry?"
***he only goes 15 hours a week can you imagine 35 at big boy school???

Sam is at SKF...
with me...
he is actually IN MY CLASS...
I know...
it's a little crazy um more like WILD
BUT...
I wouldn't trade it...

A little more boy time...

Chris is the best...he walks in the door from work and immediately starts playing with the boys. When they hear his car pull up both boys abandon me and head straight to the back doors!!!


Not sure the game but they were chasing each other and Sam wore the helment the whole time!

Tanner and Chris spent an hour building this city...with good guys and bad guys...I came in and was like "WOW I LOVE IT"...Tanner said "Hold on Mom...Watch the Battle...it's gonna be AWESOME"...in 1/2 a second they fought and crashed the entire city...GIRLS would never do that BUT you should have seen the smiles on both of their faces!!!!

Right before a FAMILY RUN...
Tanner took his shirt off because Chris did...
Sam wanted to take his shirt off because Tanner did...
and...
MINE IS STILL ON!!!!
