Logan the Parrot

This is hard to hear and, but so dang cute.  Logan repeats everything we say.  This morning I found my sunglasses broken and asked him if he did it.  He walked around for ten minutes saying, "did that."  I was surprised I got him to do it on video.  The sorry at the end is the cuttest.

6 WEEKS!!!

It always amazes me how fast they grow.  Dallon at his 2 week check up put on 11oz in 10 days.  The doctor was very happy with that.  And he gets fatter each day.  He has completed our family and we sure do love him. 

Diptic

I recently just signed up for Instagram on my Iphone.  While looking at some of my sisters pics, she had made cute little collages with her pics.  I asked her how she did it and she told me to get the app....Diptic.  So I did, and love it.  I played around and made these cute collages with some pics we took a couple of weeks ago at a Daybreak park.

Just another BBQ with friends...

All though school is in session, we aren't quite ready to end our summer fun.  Saturday night we had the pleasure of having Matt and Missy over for a BBQ.  We hadn't seen these guys in such a long time.  Life has been busy.  So it was so great to catch up with them.  The boys had such a great time too wrestling and jumping.  I was sad when it was time for them to go home.  Hopefully  we can do it again real soon.  Love you guys!

Blast from the past...

A few weeks ago a few of my friends from Jr. high and high school had mentioned getting together for lunch and catching up.  I was so happy when we actually pulled it off. 

We had discussed meeting at a park, but we couldn't find a park that was going to work.  So we ended up meeting at my parents house and hanging out in the backyard while the kids played. 

It was so much fun chatting with these lovely ladies.  It is crazy to think how many years it had been since we were all together. 

Sadly not everyone was able to make it.  Which means we will just have to get together again soon.  But then Laura will be back in Pittsburgh and Anne in Guinea.  I am glad it all worked out though.  What a great bunch of gals.  I hope we don't go another 10 years before we meet again.

Back to School

We had an extremely short summer break.  The boys went from D track to A track.  I was bummed about it at first, but then after a few weeks of them being home all day....I was going crazy with "bored" children at my ear.

 I was a little annoyed that they went back the day after the 24th.  The kids stayed up late the night before.  We had Ratha and Racie out for a BBQ and then they did fireworks with the neighbor kids.

 Although since Ashton went into 1st grade this year, he just had to attend orientation Wednesday and his first "real" day was Thursday.  So both mornings I had to get all the kids up and loaded in the car to see that Tristan and Ashton got in their right lines.

Ashton loves school.  He woke up at 7:00 AM all pumped up to go.  He kept coming in to my room every 10 minutes asking when it was time to go.  Usually he sleeps past 9.  I wish Tristan enjoyed school as much as Ashton does.  It is going to  be a great year for these two.  So glad they are only a grade apart and will always have a friend.  And as much as I love my children, it has been so silent at home.....which I am enjoying for the moment.
