Halloween 2012!

Happy Halloween!  Jake dressed up as Ironman this year while Olivia was Minnie Mouse.  The weather was chilly for trick-or-treating, but it did not stop us from the fun.  The kids had a fantastic time with friends and of course getting candy!

Family Fun

Jake truly enjoys kindergarten. We are happy that he has transitioned well into the school and is embracing it.  Olivia sings her ABC's nonstop, knows her primary colors, and numbers 1-20.  Olivia has shown an interest in potty training so we are working with her on it.  Cross your fingers this will happen sooner than later!

Enjoying family time at our favorite park.

Jake's first day of kidnergarten

The day has arrived...Jake began kindergarten at St. Simon Catholic School!

After months of discussing, preparing, thinking, and praying the first days of kindergarten have been amazing.  Jake was so excited to start school after attending Meet the Teacher Time earlier in the week. There were no tears at our household on the first day of school because Jake was ready and feeling confident. Chris walked Jake into school the first two days.  By the third day Jake wanted to be dropped off to walk down the hallway "by himself." We are so happy to share this exciting milestone with you!
