My three!

Since Wyatt is a little less of a noodle these days, it is easier to get pictures of the three of them together. (Still haven't gotten portraits done, though...)
I love this picture on the couch. They were holding his hands and saying "we have the best family." I agree!

Preschool

Cody started preschool this past week. He is only going on Mondays, and when I dropped him off, he took off without looking back. I called and called for him just to get this picture! When he came home he said, "I want to go to school every day, mommy." Soon enough, my little man!

Tractor Show

We went to the tractor show and Cody and Wyatt got to wear their matching John Deere hats. The kids had so much fun checking out all the tractor stuff.
Cody's favorite part was digging in the corn. Sarah preferred to use her hands.

Both kids had their first foot-long hotdogs. YUM!






They both also went on the barrel ride, which is a first for them. They are usually too scared to leave my side, but they did really well. At dark, we got to watch the steam tractor pulls. Sarah kept saying, "look mommy, it's Percy" because they sound like trains!




Races

We got to go to the last race of the season. It was fan appreciation night, so the kids got to go onto the track and get signatures and candy from their favorite drivers. Cody and Sarah took their backpacks along and had them filled with treats! The races were long because the drivers were all fighting for points and there were a lot of crashes. Dana and the kids lay down right on the ground! She actually fell asleep there, but my kids were too sugared up from all of the candy.
Uncle Matt finished second in his race and second in points for the year. Way to go Uncle Matt!!!!!

Lake Tobias

We have had a busy couple of weeks. We went to Tobias again this year. Wyatt wasn't old enough to enjoy of the animals, but he got some hugs from Nana.
Cody and Sarah were enchanted by the bears. I don't know why they wanted to hang out there when they could see bears at home!

Sarah was still afraid of the animals in the petting zoo. In this picture she was climbing up until she realized there was a goat up there too, then she got down in a hurry!

She liked the bus ride, and waved her cracker to get the animals to come close, but she was too afraid to feed them then.



Cody fed a bunch of elk and cattle. He is growing up so fast!




Calendar challenge

I used a cute little calendar card from Sweet Peach Crop Shop's kit to mark the date on this page about my 3rd child's birth!

Day 3 Challenge

I used my new Shimmerz spritz and irridescent embossing powder to liven up the cardstock on this page for the challenge over at Sweet Peach Crop Shop.

Ad Challenge

This is a page I did about Sarah's first shoes that she learned to walk in. They were so cute and comfy. There is an ad challenge over at Sweet Peach Crop Shop, and the ad is about shoes!
