Hat day at school.

Stuff from Griffin's first week of preschool.

I totally love these!  I was trying to take some pictures and I got these three shots right in a row.  They couldn't have planned it any better.  You can totally tell they are brothers!

Random Picture Time

I absolutely love these two munchkins.  Lila tells me all the time that they should have been twins, and I think she could be right. They wear the same size shoe, and he is catching up to her in height.  He is really excited about that! 

 They have so much fun together and he really misses her when she is gone at school.

Griffin went to a super fun birthday party for his friend Ben.  He came home all decked out in super hero gear and couldn't stop talking about all the fun things they did.

 Cam got lots of new shirts from Josh and Jess and Henry and GEORGE!  He loves them and we had a little photo shoot for him to show off.

He also got a new pair of shoes for his birthday!

Bad blurry pictures, but I love his expression!  What a stinker.

Fathers and Sons Campout

Ryan took the two older boys on a fathers and sons campout last weekend.  They had a blast.  It rained a lot and there was a huge tarantula there.  That's about all I got out of them.

Meanwhile, the girls (and Cameron) and I, went out and had dinner with friends and enjoyed a nice relaxing night.  

I can't wait until next year when Cameron gets to go too!

First day of preschool for G

Well, I just sent my #4 off for his first day of preschool.  Isn't that so strange?  I can't believe my little G is really this old.

He has been waiting so long to have his own bag and to walk to school just like Lila did.

He was in a posing mood before school!

He said, "Take a picture of my hair. It is really awesome!"  He was right, it is totally awesome and I spent just as much time on his hair as I did on Lila's.  He likes it a certain way and it takes a lot of products to get it to stay out of his eyes. (Although I guarantee it will be in his eyes when I pick him up.  He doesn't care, he says he doesn't want to cut it)

I love this one!

With Miss Melody.  She is so great, and I know Griffin is going to have a great year!

Cameron is 2

Happy Birthday to my baby.  You are 2!

Cam has had a wonderful birthday and I some more pictures to post later.  These will have to do for now.  I got him dressed and ready for a photo shoot, and these cheesy smiles were all I could get out of him.  I'll take them though, I think they are pretty cute.

Cam is now officially a big boy and our house is completely empty of baby things.  I thought it might be a little bittersweet, but it is just really, really, SWEET!  We are loving all the freedom we have and all the fun things we get to do without a baby in tow.

All about Cam:

Hogle Zoo 2013

Today was the long awaited zoo day with Mimi and Bear.  The kids were so excited!

Cam was a big shot...as usual, and insisted on walking alone.  No hand holding for this 2 year old.

These two were more than happy to hold hands with Bear!

I almost had a good picture with all of the kids looking and then Lila reached out to swat a bee and ruined my shot.

The zoo has some really cool lego exhibits.  Here is Jack with the lego penguins.

Real polar bear.

Lego polar bear.

Cam having a little breakdown.  He was trying to mess with a water fountain and I sent Jack to bring him back over to us.  Cam started screeching and wouldn't let Jack pick him up, so he was sent to the stroller for a few minutes.  He was so sad.

Those last 4  are the kids sticking their faces into a lego monkey thing.  Jackson was too busy taking pictures with Bear's camera to pose for me.

The bird show.  It was great.

And the highlight of Griffin's day...huge ice cream cones.
