Preschool Starts Back!

Vann,  It's back to school for you! Daddy, Maggie, and I dropped you off this morning. Your teachers Miss Erin and Miss Leisa greeted you in your classroom. You went straight in and I had to grab a quick kiss because you were ready to play. You did tell me and Daddy last night that you'd miss us while you were gone. You were dancing as I tried to snap photos of you before school! You had a great first day at your new school, made new friends, and enjoyed learning!

Oh Maggie!  You are 4 months! You are so happy and such a sweet joy to all of us!  You SMILE so big and it gets even bigger when you see your brother. You think he is so funny.  You are a little more than 12 lbs, getting longer, and eating like a champ! You are nursing, but we get to add in cereal, an orange veggie, and a green one for now!  You have found your voice and use it lots. You love to squeal and giggle. You copy us and mimic sounds to "talk" back to us.  You are strong and can pull your self up when I give you my hands. You like to bop around on your legs.  You are sleeping in your crib now. You've done a great job with the transition. You like to be swaddled, but manage to get your arms out. Last night you had rolled onto your side and slept like that for a bit.  You stayed overnight at Mimi and Papa's and did a great job.  You will finally take a bottle from us. We were afraid you weren't goi...

Vann, You are 3! Happy Birthday! You are the coolest boy I know and I am so happy that God gave us you! When I think back on all you've learned and done this year it blows me away! Sometimes I forget you're only 3. You can do so much on your own now. You're an awesome big brother and love Maggie so much. You love to play outside. You've turned into a fish this summer in the pool. You really like going to church and learning in your small group. You can dress yourself. You use the potty like a big boy. You sleep in your big boy bed. You talk so well and use big words like "fantastic"! (My favorite was when you said "great-tastic"!!) You have lots of friends and pray for them nightly. You say the prayer at dinner for our family. You spend time at Mimi and Papa's and love riding the Gator. You can use your pedals on your tricycles. You can count to 20. You are a big helper and put your dishes away, help with laund...
