Kicked off the bus

A few weeks ago a good friend decided to start a "structured play group" with some of her sons 3-4 year old friends. Parents drop their child off and for two hours and then she brings them home on here 10 passenger van (aka "the bus"). Well Douglas has managed to get out of two different seats a few times on the ride home. (Mind you we live in a small town) It would not be so bad if he would sit in his seat but no he has to get up and stand by his teacher as she is driving. So last Thursday, after having to stop twice to put him back in the seatbelt, his teacher told me he could not ride the bus home. Of course this makes Douglas very sad because all of his friends get to ride the bus home and he has to come home with me. I think it is funny that my pre pre-schooler has already been kicked off of the bus and he has only been going to pre-school for two weeks. He is his father's son. haha!!

Slacker

Ok, I admit I have not done very good at blogging. There has been alot of things happening lately. Douglas has started going to a "structured play group" two days a week. He loves it. He gets to play, learn, and eat a snack. Clint loves going to pre-school. He is doing so good and learning a lot of new things.

Douglas celebrated his third birthday in August. He is also potty trained:) No more diapers!!!!!! They grow up so fast it is hard for me to believe that he is already three. I have tons of pictures but am having trouble with my computer downloading the pictures onto the computer so I will post pictures when I figure out how to get them onto the computer.

That is about all that is going on in our lives right now. Hopefully I will get better at blogging again.

School

Well, today is the day. Clint started Pre-School today. He goes Monday-Thursday for three hours. He is soooooo excited to finally be able to go to school. He got a Spiderman backpack for his birthday this year and he would always fill it full of books and toys and say "I am going to Spiderman school." Now he really gets to go to school (just not Spiderman school).

I am a little sad that he is going to school because that means that he is growing up and sometimes I wish I could just keep them little and with me forever but I know he has to grow up other wise who will take care of me and Tyrone when we get really old? (haha)

Garden Pics

What our garden looked like before javelina ate most of it:( Good news is it is starting to grow back:)

Deer Farm

We took the boys and my niece to the Deer Farm this past weekend. I think the kids had a blast. It was sooooo cute. The boys were excited to see the deer and when we walked in all of the deer came over to us and tried eating the food out of the cups so both the boys dumped all of the food onto the ground and hurried out of the way. The deer loved that but would follow us around trying to get more food.

Where has my garden gone?

We planted a garden of watermelon, tomatoes, bell peppers, and pumpkins. Last week we noticed that our tomatoes were all gone the plants still there but the almost ripe tomatoes gone along with some of our watermelons.

Needless to say we were very sad cause we were thrilled because it is the first year that our garden has done this good. Any way, yesterday I had someone weedeat the weeds in the back and low and behold there were more tomatoes growing and we had 6 watermelon!!!!!! The good news is we found out who/what ate the veggies. It was a BIG javalina! He even had the nerve to try and eat more from our garden this morning but we scared him off. Our veggis are safe for now.
