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?

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!
