Catching Up

 My little cutie pie - he just ate a chocolate donut that his big brother gave him - hence the messy face.

Ok - will have to start from now going backwards a few months.  I have been slacking on the posts so sorry about that.  Dean should be coming home for his 2 week R&R soon.  He should be here for Thanksgiving (at least we hope so).  Jacob got his very first haircut today (pics to be posted on this as well).  Preston is doing flag football now and is enjoying that.  Emily is in gymnastics and she just loves it.  Has been getting in trouble lately with it though for not listening.  So, we are working on that.  Halloween was good - kids got a lot of candy.  Too much I think - but not enough if you hear them talk about it.  Put candy outside our door when I took the kids out trick or treating.  Got back an hour later and everything was gone - it went fast!  Before football Preston played soccer.  He enjoyed that too - only hang up I had about it was the coach.  But, for some reason soccer coaches are hard to come by here, so beggars can't be choosers I guess.     Preston really enjoyed hanging out with his friends from soccer.  Most of them play football too, but did not get put on  his team.  There was much more interest in the football than there was for soccer, so a lot more teams for it, and no trouble finding coaches.  Ok - enough talking - pics will show the rest of what I have missed posting about.

Here are some pics that were taken on Preston's 7th Birthday.  (Well, almost - one additional of Jacob that I thought was to cute not to share).  I gave Preston a choice of what he wanted to do for his birthday and of coarse he chose bowling.  He loves bowling right now.  Hope he doesn't get to sick of it when we get back to GA.  He is in a bowling league and will have to play catch up for the games he has missed while we have been on vacation.  So, he will be playing a lot of bowling when we get back.  He had a really good time at his birthday party.  We just did the bowling at the bowling alley then came back and had pizza then cake.  I got the cake from Krogers and I asked the pastry chef there to right Happy Birthday Preston on the cake.  She did, but I didn't notice until I got home and started taking pics of the cake that she wrote it upside down!  Crazy!  But, Preston likes his cake nonetheless, so didn't matter I guess.  More pics to come later of our weekend at the lake.

At one point all three kiddos were tied

6/28/2012 - Disney Vacation

Here are a bunch of pics from our Disney Vacation in Florida.  The kids had a great time.  On the way there when we started to see signs for Disney, Preston said "Were coming for you Disney".  It was really cute.  Jacob still isn't walking, but he is climbing like crazy.  He is getting onto beds, couches, etc.  Last night I had him on my moms bed (which is really high up), while I was putting on a movie for Emily.  I heard this Ugh (Grunt), turned around and Jacob had gotten off of the bed and was standing next to the bed.  So, now he knows how to get off of the bed now, so my short term babysitter is now a thing of the past.  Jacob did take a full step by himself though - he had let go of the wall, and took a step towards his toy.  Me, Preston, and Emily were all cheering him on.  So, Jacob started cheering too.  Yeah!!! (hands clapping).  It was really cute!

Jacob riding his very first ride!


Woody was awesome - Buzz was late in coming back out, so Woody had to entertain Preston for a while.  Preston had so much fun.  Woody was chasing him around the floor until Preston cut him off by running right in front of him.  Then Woody pretended to fall down and surrender.  It was really cute - Preston had a great time!

 Comfortable Jacob??


 Practically Perfect in Every Way



Emily really liked the castle lit up with the pink lights
