Brock and Brayden

His new little buddy in the neighborhood!

We all about died laughing when they switched spots and Brock was chock holding Brayden.  Brock wouldn't let go... They drove all over like this ....

These two are learning how to share.  It's been ugly at times... It's been cute at times.  This happened to be the cute moment!  The bad ones we are usually intercepting a hit or two!  Ha!

Brock's new found love...

The I pad... The I phone.  Either one will do!  I found him this morning like this... He had taken the pillow off my freshly made bed and made sure he was extra comfy while playing who knows what game on the iPad!  He needs an intervention!

Micah's the best big brother!

Before bed every night he not only reads Brock a book.. But he brushes his teeth for him too!  Brock idolizes Micah!  He follows everything he does!  I'm glad Micah's so sweet with him!

Because making a mess in nursery wasn't enough!  We like to come home a dump bins all over before mom even walks in the door!

On a related note.  This is the first week he's gone to nursery EVER without crying.  And he's gone for a year folks!  He's been so bad that this had to start happening: 

But this week we've crossed a bridge... He didn't cry... And he actually played!  All those days of crying were worth it!  

This was him last week.  Getting better but still cried going in!

And here he is happy as can be... No crying!

They had him eating out if their hands... Literally!  Crossing my fingers for next week!

Summer Fun 2013

It's always fun to look back and see all the fun things we did in the summer time!  I'm always a bit sad that the freedom and excitement of summer is over, but it's nice to be back to a routine around here!  Here's all the fun things we did this summer in a nutshell!

Halie and Gymnastics

This week...

Halie looked like a doll for church and wanted me to take a picture of her!  She hates her picture taken so this was a shocker!

This is her not wanting her picture taken!

It rained on and off all week!.. Love the wet green grass!

Micah helps halie every morning!  This day he helped her park her bike! He's the best big brother!

I made a little memorization station!  Halies working on site words.. Micah is working on times tables!

Halies on the gymnastics team and getting ready for competition.  She is in the hot pink on the beam!

The one and only day she walked in without crying!

We were So excited to see Travis on his first day of kindergarten!  So fun to have a cousin at our school!

Micah cool enough to walk his sisters pink bike down the hill and park it for her!

We sunk to a new low.. Bringing the iPad In the car!  Brock is addicted!  It's either the binky or the iPad.  I'm trying to decide which one to get rid of?  They are the only 2 things that keep him quiet:)

Most the week I woke up to this... And Jeff was upstairs sleeping on Micah's floor because Micah keeps having nightmares!

Bought Brock a scooter!  He's picking up quite fast!

This boy got a juicy kiss from his sister!

Brock and taycee matching one day!

Micah reading a bedtime story to Brock!

Halie had her teddy bear picnic!

Brock pouting because he couldn't go to the football game and had to go with me Matt and Becky to dinner!

We went to the corn fest in enterprise!

It started raining 5 minutes after we got there!

Hi tailed it out of enterprise.. Stopped in veyo and got a pie and a cannoli!  Brock refused to share!

Ended the week by laying with Brock on Sunday night till he fell asleep!
