WE Survived the 1st week of Kindergarten!!

Well.. WE did it!! We succesfully survived the first week of Kindergarten!! And by WE, I mean all of us!! For Trenton, this was a breeze. He has been talking about it for months, couldn't wait to go to school that first day. For me and Alex, we probably could have gotten by with keeping him home one more year! And as for Tanner, my poor Tanner... what he would do to be right there next to Trenton. Poor baby, I think he took it the hardest. But we did it. Week 1 was a success. For anybody who knows me, knows that me and schedules don't really mix. For the past couple years, I could just get up, do what I wanted, when I wanted, and not have to worry about it, heck we could even stay in our pajamas all day! And yes, I've always been a sucker for letting the boys stay up late, maybe a little to late, so I thought the new early bed time would be the hardest to adjust to. Boy was I wrong!! Thank goodness!! Trenton is soooo exhausted by the time he gets home, that he can't wait to go to bed, poor little guy. So were all adjusting well, to early bed times, early mornings, and busy days. With Trenton gone all day, it has given me extra time to spend with the little ones. Wow, what a different kid Tanner is. So mellow, calm, and sweet. I'm really enjoying my special time with him. And now he feels like the big brother for Tessa, and has started teaching her all the "cool" things he can do!

As for Trenton.. he cannot get enough of it!! His teachers name is Mrs. Hooker. She's really nice, and Trenton seems to be taking to her well. He has a best friend named Andrew.. and a girlfriend named Ali. Yes, a girlfriend already!! (maybe I should keep him home). He's got a little bit of homework, and I can tell that he has learned so much already, he even told me he got on the internet. Ha, Ha! Our biggest challenge, is making him understand that the school is not open on the weekends.. and he has to stay home those two days! I love his enthusiasm.

I enrolled Tanner & Tessa in a couple classes with parks and rec., arts & crafts and a tumbling class. And Trenton is getting ready to start T-ball, and his religious ed. classes. As for me, I'm just gonna try to keep up with them!! Ha Ha.. it's worth every second of it!

Some Adult Fun!!

ME & MORGAN





ALL MY FRIENDS THAT CAME OUT FROM ALBUQUERQUE, HOW LUCKY AM I? LOVE EM ALL!!

So fortunatly with all the business this summer.. Alex & I have been able to sneak out a couple times, for some much needed fun, good times with friends, and drinks. Here's a few snapshots of all our craziness!!

Trenton's 5th Birthday Party!!

I know, I know... the big number 5!! Wow!! They seem so young, until they hit that infamous number 5. It's just such a grown up number, it gives them so much more freedom. Still not sure if I like it, but I'm slowly adjusting. His party was great.. he wanted a bowling party, with a Thomas the Train cake.. so bowling & Thomas is what he got. He had a blast, but I think the adults might have been having a little more fun! He got lots of new, what he calls "cool skater" clothes and shoes, and his very own set of golf clubs.

Tessa's 1st Birthday & Baptismal Weekend!

TESSA & HER GODFATHER

On June 27th my little mama turned 1. I just can't believe how quickly this year has gone by. She has grown so much, but is still just so petite & tiny. We postponed her party until 4th of July weekend, to accomodate all the out of town guests.. so it was a crazy 3 day bash. We spent lots of time in the pool, shopping, getting pampered at the salon, and just enjoying time with all of our friends from Albuquerque. I was amazed at how many of my friends came out to celebrate these special events with our little princess. Unfortunatly the day of her party, she came down with a horrible case of the flu. She was miserable!! Did not want you to bring a camera near her.. so I got the best pictures I could.. but needless to say, she slept through the majority of her party =( The next day at her baptismal, she wasn't much better.. but what a beautiful ceremony. She did great until they poured the water on her head, and then it was all down hill from there. Once again, I got the pictures I could, wish I could have gotten some better ones! Maybe I'll sneak her into her outfits and take some "pretend" ones! But all in all.. it was a great weekend with unforgettable memories.

Playing catch up as usual!!

What an eventful summer we have had! It seems like every weekend we have something going on, company coming, going out of town, you name it we have done it! So, I'll catch you up to date. We have had lots of birthdays & parties, some much needed hubby & wife time, and huge milestones. Were actually moving this weekend (yes again!!), out to Queen Creek, it's so beautiful out there, and I mean OUT there. But it's worth the drive and were really excited to be going out there. Trenton starts kindergarten on Monday at his new year round school. And as my nerves are rattling, I know how excited and ready he really is. I think Tanner is taking it a little harder than me =( He loves spending the days with his big brother! Tessa is finally standing, and will hopefully be walking soon. She's such a joy always so happy. She is finally cutting her 3rd tooth.. lol.. There taking their precious time to come in, but that doesn't stop her from chowing down a good meal! Each day I count my blessings, and am amazed at how truly lucky I really am!!
