First Day of School!

Parents are always saying how time flies. Those first few months after A was born it sure didn't. But now...man, it sure does! 3.5 years ago A started day care at what would become his second home. We sure do love all the ladies at First Steps and can't say enough good things. I won't lie...I teared up saying goodbye to them on Friday!

But it didn't seem to phase A too much. Monday he started at his new "big boy" school. Here's a glimpse of him at his new school.

So far he seems to be liking it...though I think he likes it mostly because they have three sandboxes. We still miss our old friends though and hope to see them again soon!

My Little Vegetable Farmer

As some of you know I spent a solid 7 years avoiding meat like the plague. I absolutely LOVE vegetables and fruit and could live off them (and chocolate...and wine, which is of course born from fruit!). Not surprisingly A is a chip off the old block and loves his fruit and veggies. Take a recent trip to my parents' farm. 

Me: What do you want to do tonight? We could go swimming or play on the playground?

A: Hmmm I want to pick vegetables. 

Me: You do? You don't want to swim?

A: No, I want to pick vegetables because I LOVE vegetables. 

You probably think I'm lying...but the kid has literally picked a green pepper or tomato, turned around for a minute and then I turned back around only to see my child chomping into said vegetable. 

Going up!

How has it been almost 3 months since the last post? I'm surprised all my crazy fans aren't out there screaming at me over email. (Ha! Aren't I funny?) well the big news in the last 3 months is of course the house! So I figured I'd share a few photos of it coming along.

Future home site!

That's a lot of dirt.

Every kid loves an excuse to climb on a tractor, especially when it's building your new house!

It'll be a while until it's done, but we'll post more updates soon! Can you tell I'm excited? :)
