8 years old

Kobe is 8, that sounds so old.  What does an 8 year old ask for his birthday dinner??  Well a T-bone of course!  We had a wonderful family party on Saturday with a fun army fort cake.  He is growing up so much, it's so neat to see the special, unique person God has created.  Happy birthday bud.

School Girl

Yep, she's my school girl, and all girl she is.  She recently started loving her dollies, feeding them, wrapping them in the blanket - soooo cute, I love it!  We separated for the first time at "school" on thursday and she didn't even cry one bit!  We'll see what happens this week . . .

Last Parade

Whew, and another season of our life is in the past.  We finished up our "parade season" last weekend after over 30 parades.  My children were amazing, and so tolerant, at least we got to be with daddy while he worked.  :)

Nadia and mommy

Looks like the princess will have some special time with mommy, I'm sure she'll love that.  We are also taking a class starting next thursday to learn that it's okay to separate from mommy.  :)

2 boys in school

Dropped off both boys at school yesterday.  wow it felt strange leaving the school with just nadia.  Just a few tears for mommy.  They both had great days - brennan got to "put all the apples (names) back on the tree", and Kobe said it was the best first day ever and that he has the best teacher ever. It's going to be a good year.

last summer fun 2012

This was our last trip to a park last week.  Nothing better than being buried in sand.
