School Days

So since school has started, Trent's daycare lady, Ms Brandie, has just the little ones (Trent, twins the same age as him and her 3 year old). Since it's just the four of them and they are all so close in age, she's been able to do school time with him which has been great! He comes home with his sheets of what he has done during the day, they have circle time, book time,craft time and focus on learning new things. Just last week they have had fun with coloring, playing with shaving cream and finger painting! They focused on learning the letter A, the number 1 and the color red. She is also working on name recognition. She has explained it may take a little while until he puts all these items together but one day all these things they are working on will just click for him in the next 6 months or so. He gets so proud of his of pictures and shows them to me when I come to get him. This one picture just cracks me up because it really shows Trent's personality. The other two boys his age are painting gentling and slowly and he's just going crazy with his finger paints.

Last Weekend

Last Saturday we had a family get together at my aunt Jayne's house. It was so nice seeing all of the family, hanging out, eating, watching the kids play and watching some very old video's from a very long time ago! (Adrianne and Ashlie, I wish you two could have been there too to see how funny we were but I have to say, we sure looked like we were having fun!!) I can't tell you how much fun Trent had there too! My cousin's little boy was there and he's about 9 months older than Trent and after a little warming up to each other, they were best buds. Running around, laughing and giggling. They played with cars together, had a wagon ride, watched some cartoons and just had a blast. I really have not heard Trent laugh that hard in a long time. I was very lucky too since my cousin has started into photography so she got some very adorable pictures! Up top is our Mr. Serious not wanting to smile from her and below is a sweet little hug between the boys. Part of the family getting together was to annouce that my Uncle Gerald will be going over seas again real soon. I will pray that he will stay safe and we can't wait to see him back real soon!!!

Happy Birthday Teagan!

My sister's baby, Teagan, was born today around 7:30am. She is 8lbs 8oz and 20 1/2 inches long. We are thinking 8 just may be her lucky number...born 8/8/08, 8lb 8oz...very strange! Here are some pictures of the precious new little one :-)

Hi Adrianne!!

I know it's been awhile since I've blogged so I apologize and I would like to let Adrianne know this is for her :-) (She's a bit scary right now so I don't want to upset her. Her baby will be here tomorrow though and we can't wait!!!!!) Our little family has been B U S Y!! David has been working so much (almost everyday!) now that he's done with school and has been submitting his resume to companies but unfortunately, he hasn't received any calls for interviews yet. I've been pretty busy at work and taking care of our little guy. Trent's been having a great time over at Ms Brandie's house. Our friends with the twins have started using her as well so he has some little buddies over there. It's adorable when I drop him off, they come running to the door saying "TRENT!!!" and then they all just start playing away. It's been very hard to get some pictures of Trent lately because he feels he should be taking the pictures, not photographed. I pull out the camera and most of the time he'll grab at it and when I don't let him have it, to the floor he goes for his little fit. I was able to the get one above and some in the bath playing with his bath foam that he loves! So check in tomorrow and I should have some pictures of my new niece posted!!! YAY!!!
