Halloween Time!

2008-11-11T16:13:00.000-08:00

William was not fond of his Buzz Lightyear Costume after he sat on a hay bale and got itchy so he chose this outfit for trick-or-treating

Evan carved his pumpkin all on his own. He even made 3 different faces on it.
It took WIll a while but eventually he reached in and grabbed some goo from his pumpkin.
But it was very slimy so he had daddy do the rest!
Our pumpkins turned out great!

Will's Birthday Party

2008-11-11T15:56:00.000-08:00

Nov 2nd William turned 3. We had his birthday party at the house and he had a great time. We had a big bouncer and all the kids (and some adults too....... oh, and the dog....) had a great time playing in it.

Will had a great time with all his friends!

He got a lot of Thomas stuff and other cool things as well. He loved everything and plays with all of it!
Auntie Christy made a cool Thomas cake! Will was disappointed when we ate most of it and he couldn't see thomas anymore.
He got a new Thomas bike to replace his too small tricycle. He loves it and rides it every day.

Piper's Birthday

2008-11-11T15:44:00.000-08:00

We went to Pipers Birthday at Faulkner Family Farms pumpkin patch on October 26th. She turned 2 years old! Wow time flies!

Persy looking adorable!
Pi found a good pumpkin
Evan tried very hard to find the littlest one!
Will liked the size of this one but put it back in favor of one that was "no green".

Will's first day of preschool

2008-09-17T16:27:00.000-07:00

I enrolled Will in a preschool on tuesday mornings from 9:15 to 11:15 through Park and Rec. This tuesday was his first day. He did good but his teacher said he was embarrased to sing and dance with the kids and hid his head under his B (his blankie) but was grinning and peaking out at everyone. Here are a few pictures i got of him on his first day.

Wills favorite shoes. Thomas The Tank Engine of course!!!

This was a trip to the "Duck Park" behind the T.O. Library. FIrst we feed the ducks and then when the bread is gone the boys chase them all into the water!

Then we play at the park!

We went to the Maritime Museum and Memorial in San Pedro. They had all kinds of things from Naval ships in World War II. Here is Will sitting on a boat anchor!

No more Diapers for Will, he has Thomas the Tank Engine underwear! He is very good about using the potty, even when we are out!

William is always ready to go to the pool! He can hold his breath under the water and he can swim all over the pool hanging on to a noodle. He is working on kicking his feet and paddling his arms at the same time. By next summer i predict he will be a good swimmer

Evan Loves to watch Movies but has recently gotten into reading. He got a level 4 star wars book with 153 pages at borders and finished it in 2 days! We get his books from the library now....

William in his Monkey Towel!

This is Evan on the bullet that shoots out of the big cannon at the Maritime Memorial.

Right now I am working, trying to work more, Brian is in his second semester of nursing school and Evan is living with us! Woo hoo! Will is no longer in diapers and is Really GOOd about using the potty even when we are not at home. I will post more later. For now, a few pictures
