first day of school

Arianna started preschool this fall. She LOVES going. It helps a lot that one of her favorite buddies next door is also in her class. I love that she is learning social skills and some educational stuff too :)

sorry I've been so slacking in blogging lately. Things are crazy with school starting. And for those of you who didn't know, I'm pregnant with our 3rd, due in April. SO, I've been tired and sick. I promise, as soon as I start feeling better blogging will resume in full force.

daddy's biggest buddy...

this boy adores his daddy. he loves being with him and especially loves riding the lawn mower with his daddy. this melts my heart...

hair cuts...

neal wasn't sure about this whole hair cutting thing. he sat really well for about 5 minutes and then starting screaming, 'down!' i guess for an 19 month old, that's pretty normal. and, as you can see..i wasn't above bribery. a sucker goes a long ways...

this one is the finished product (above)

arianna on the other hand sat as still as i've ever seen her. she loved all the attention and though the gown looked a bit like a princess dress. hey, whatever it takes.

little bit of random...

these pictures were taken before the 'fall of 2010'. Arianna's face is doing much better. i'm keeping lots of neosporin on in to make sure it doesn't scar but keeping her from picking at it seems to be a full time job.

things are going well for us this summer. i'm loving being home with the kids and we take adventures daily. we love going to parks, splash pads, the beach and our own backyard. we are having a blast.

on a random side note...i can't get blogger to let me change colors for some of the stuff on the blog. so, until that happens it's going to be funny looking.

hello cement...meet face

this is what happens when you chase boys while wearing flip-flops.

splash park

SCORE!

makes daddy proud...
