It's Elementary!

School Days are upon us. I can hardly believe that Colin is in the first grade. He was very excited to begin the school year - not because he would see his friends, not because he had a new teacher, not because he was in 1st grade....He was excited to wear his new shoes!!!!!
We are anxious to see what this school year brings!

The Many "Hats" of Summer 2010!

What a summer and where has it gone?

It is hard to believe that in less than 2 weeks, Colin will begin his year as a 1st grader. He turned 6 just a few weeks ago. I just cannot wrap my mind around the fact that 6 years ago he was an infant! People were not kidding when they told me that time flies when you have children. The highlight of his summer was the loss of his first tooth. The "tooth fairy" was quite generous under his pillow since this was his first one. He already has another tooth that is very loose. I am trying to prepare him for the fact that the "tooth fairy" may be facing hard times during this recession....ha ha...think a 6 year old will comprehend our country's present ecomonic state?

We were able to take a spur of the moment beach trip. We enjoyed our time away. Colin loved every minute of the pool, ocean, sand and breeze. Evan...well that was a different story. He would rather stay on the balcony and be a people watcher. He had little interest in the beach, did not like the sand on his feet and would only stay in the pool for a short while. Maybe next year will bring about a different perspective from our Evan. I have told many that I need a vacation from our vacation because following a toddler around is exhausting but he is only little for a short while...we will celebrate his 6th birthday sooner than we think!






Missing something?????


Enjoying a ride or two...maybe three



















Not much to say...it is what it is...all you can do is laugh!
Totally Evan's wardrobe idea for the day!
