kick'in it

She certaintly knows how. This was at our yard sale. It was fun hanging outside with everyone all morning long. Lots of sun time

100 lessons

Tre and I have done 20 lessons now out of"Teach your child to read in 100 easy lessons."It is going really well. I love the approach inthe book, but the best thing is it tell you exactly what to say in nice red letters. I can't say anything straight, I'm lucky if people understand what I am saying half the time. So, just laying it out for me lets him completely understand what I am trying to teach him. I just read, and even if I don't know what I just read out load HE does. I just wish I knew of this for Collette.

"The same age as Jacob"- Tre is 4!!

Birthday and Megans and Chippys again. I can't believe he is 4 years old. Tre is the sweetest boys I've ever known. He loves is sisters so much and is very caring to them..... alot of the time. He loves to learn and is such a good listener. He is kinda clumsy, but makes up for it in cuteness! He can get super excited about the smalls little things, which can be tons of fun. We love the Tre bay. Cheated on the cake this time. I put toy dinosaurs on it.

School carnival and a Late Saturday night

Mill st. had their carnival night this Friday. Collette invited the cousins! The fire truck again was a big hit. Maybe bought a few too many tickets but we finally used them all up. Thanks to Megan for coming and making it possible. I should use a stroller more often...........I think I'm crazy because I never do.

Didn't have anyone to bug this Saturday so I actually took initiative all on my own and took the kids to Cinderella @ Chico theater Company. Both kids were pretty much standing out of their seats for a closer view the entire time! Tre was too shy to take a pic with the princess but Collette thought she was wonderful.

Our new neighbor!

We made a new friend the other day. It's the 4ft long garter snake that lives in our back yard. I caught him once and ever since then he has made an appearance everyday. We know where is hole is but no name yet. .......

yeah, I'm sure it makes some people cringe, but we love it!

It sure felt like summer today. The kids now have a wonderful play structure we found on craiglist. Today it was our water slide as well. If only it would not get hotter then today. I'm not looking forward to the hot nights and soaring electric bills.
