Opening Jake's gift

I know I say it all the time, but I can't believe how fast they grow (just look at his height compared to the sign!) It makes me sad that all these moments are flying by. Ty is one of the sweetest boys you could ever meet. He would give you the shirt off his back if you asked. I never had one complaint from his teacher and he went to school everyday without a single whine. I am so proud of all that he has learned. He knows his sounds and letter, and has been shocking us with his math skills. His graduation was held in the chapel where the kids sang songs. You could see Ty yawning throughout a couple of them in true Ty fashion.  Jake had found a gift bag at home, put some things around the house in it including his own toys, put it in the car, brought it to the graduation, and had Ty sit down and open it all on his own.  It was the sweetest thing.  Matt and I looked over and saw them sitting on the wall and rushed over to grab a picture.  They do fight a lot, but they sure love each other.

Jake Graduates from Kinder

I was so excited to see Jake graduate.  He grew so much this year.  I was so happy they had a real graduation with caps and everything.  Too cute. They sang the cutest songs and got their diplomas.  Nana and Papa Hogencamp and Turner came.  He decided he had to have a tie so we went to JC Penney and he picked out his own tie...solid black.

Teacher Gifts

Jake suggested we make "mom's famous chocolate chip cookies" for the teachers.  He really hasn't tasted many others, so I guess to him mine are famous.  I thought they were cute.

Smoothies for Three

Grabbing a smoothie while Jake is at school...shhh don't tell, he would not be happy.

Sweet, Sensitive Ty-Ty

My sweet Ty has such a tender heart and his feelings can be easily hurt at the drop of a hat  lately.  I am wondering if this is the normal part of a "middle child" in a family, or perhaps a stage.  At times I feel bad, and others I just try to maintain patience.

Movie Time

Nana took Kylie this week for "Thursday's with Nana" and Matt was working, so the boys and I went to see How to Train a Dragon.  It was nice to hang out with the boys.  Ty ended up on my lap the whole time,while I held his glasses on.  I guess with Kylie he was missing his time.

Double Graduation

How did this happen?  Where did the time go?  My sweet boys are graduating preschool and kinder!

Jake lost his first Tooth

Jake lost his first tooth.  It was such a big deal, especially since Jake is our first and everything is new for us.  He had been working on this one for weeks.  Nana stopped by and got him some Dibs ice cream and sure enough his tooth fell out.  It was nice to share the moment with Nana.  He got $5 for his first tooth, but only $1 for all future teeth (Jake told us this is how it works).
