School Days

Mrs. Amy was kind enough to send me some cute pictures of my boys at school!

This is from their first day.


Anthony playing in the "pet shop" with a friend.


The whole class showing off their cat masks. Anthony is the fifth from the left and Aiden is seventh.


And "the hat!"


Evidently he wore this all day. When I picked him up he had it on and another Mom told me he had put it on when she was dropping her daughter off! He loved that hat!


The real question is, "did he love the hat because he's fashion conscious?" or "did he love the hat because the girls dig it?" I'm pretty sure I know the answer!

New clothes!

Grandaddy, Nan, and Mema sent us new clothes for school!







Hoods make us Super Heroes! Thanks Grandaddy, Nan, and Mema!!!

Sleep

I do not want to know what was happening before these pictures were taken. It is in Mommy's best interest to just be thrilled they are sleeping and amused at where they are doing it and how!

17 weeks

Here's the Hershey belly at 17 weeks. The fact that I've thrown up everyday this week does not seem to be inhibiting my appetite or the growing belly. :)

Hershey update

We had a doctor's appointment today. Everything is going very well, very normal, which is very unusual for us! We are loving it! Hershey was hiding from the Doppler today, so we got a bonus ultrasound! He or she waved at us and we could see the fingers clearly! It was so neat!!! Here's our little one:



We go back in four weeks and have our big ultrasound in five weeks. Hopefully Hershey will cooperate and we will find out if this little one is a boy or a girl! Today, the baby had legs crossed and was being quite modest. Both of my boys, Aiden and Colin, were very proud to show off their anatomy, so here's to hoping Hershey won't be shy in five weeks!

Here's our latest belly pic. This was taken Friday at 15 weeks.

Aiden-isms

Just some funnies recently I don't want to forget!

"Aiden, what do you want from Sonic?"
"I want potator tots!"

"You're my best Mommy ever!"

"Aiden where do you want to eat today?"
"Water Buffalo Wings!" (Buffalo Wild Wings)

"Aiden, why do you chew on things?"
"I didn't mean to Mommy"
"But, Aiden, why do you do it? Just tell me why?"
"Because my Nan was chewing on her foot. Like this!" (and he brought his foot to his mouth to chew on it, replacing the blanket and fingers he was chewing on)

Whew! Glad to know the chewing isn't my fault!

First Day of School

We started a new school year on Monday at Mrs. Amy's Brightest Stars Preschool. We love Mrs. Amy, she is just so good at what she does! We decided it was time for Anthony to get to go to preschool too! He's been begging for nearly a year now. He was SO excited!!!

Aren't they handsome? They picked out their new clothes and shoes themselves!


I just don't know when my red head got so big?


So excited!!!


Seriously Mom! You've taken a billion pictures can we please go???


Running down the sidewalk!


Screaming, "FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!"


Ready to go in!


Aiden loves playing on the computer!


Um, I'm good, you can go now.


He made friends with this cute little girl. It was so neat to watch how friendly and outgoing he was with her. I haven't seen him interact with alot of children, I know this is going to be an amazing year for both of my big boys!
