LaGoOn

Nuskin Lagoon Party here we come. This is the party of all parties that we anxiously wait for. The kids asked every day for almost an entire week "Are we going to Lagoon today?"

The day finally came and we had a blast. Sheree and her family came with us and we had fun riding all the kiddie rides. Sidney and Kaleigh
Hagen

Sheree, Jordan, and Jacob. They were soaked!

September Madness

I was talking to my brother a few days ago and he complained that I hadn't updated my blog in a month. So I figured that I had better do it soon.

My cute little calvin is way too little to leave with a sitter at the house so Jared and I and little Calvin all went on a much needed date a few weekends ago. We ate at JDawgs, this place has amazing hotdogs. If you haven't tried one, I definately recommend it. Then we watched the Green Lantern. Good movie, I am excited to see the other movies as well. He did awesome in the movie. It is so exciting to see the changes that happen between five an six months. Little Calvin is sitting up. He still falls back every once in a while. But each day he gets better and better. He can reach for stuff and grab it and then sticks it straight in his mouth. He likes to eat whatever we are eating (as long as it is safe and in very small pieces). He smiles at people especially cute girls, he is learning to be a flirt early.

Here is little Sidney playing with Calvin.

Calvin is also eating jar food! Maybe we won't go through so much formula now. He is patiently sitting in his seat waiting for a bib and food.

Another fun thing that we are working on is riding without training wheels, except for Sidney she get three.

Hagen is still having a hard time mastering it. He'll get it with a little practice.

Kaleigh was ready last summer but we didn't take the training wheels off until this August. She didn't need any practice, she rode away immediately after a 30 second training session. She is everywhere on her bike.

School is FINALLY here!!

Yay Yay!! First day of school for Kaleigh. This year she is in 2nd grade and her teacher is Miss Gardner. She is liking school a little more than she did last year but she still tells me how much she dislikes doing homework. I think we've somewhat established a homework routine from last year so it is just getting back into the routine. Notice her cute shoes "twinkle toes", she had to wait to wear them until school started and she loves them. Hagen started Kindergarten a week after Kaleigh did. His teacher is Mrs. Williams and he is in the AM class. He thinks it's pretty cool to walk to school with Kaleigh. The first three days of school he was a little emotional but I think he is finally getting into the groove and is doing a lot better with his schedule. He is a handsome little guy!
Sid had to have a picture since everyone else did. I wish I could afford to put her in preschool this year but we can't so we are doing a playgroup once a week, starting this week. Hopefully she will be satisfied with that.

Here is little Calvin just hanging out playing with out anyone else bugging him or trying to pick him up (except for Sid). I think he enjoys the break from Kaleigh and Hagen as much as I do.
