Resurrection of a blog

Tomorrow this kid turns 5. Can you believe it?  Because the weather has been so awful this last week it put a damper on his party plans. We made due with cake at home and pizza at Kozy's last weekend. He was happy as can be. 

Amazing to think how far we've come from this. http://mommie-dearest08.blogspot.com/2009/07/calling-all-angels.html?m=0

Sledding

We took the boys sledding over the weekend.  Aside from a few rides down the mound in our backyard, none of the kids had ever been.  It was cold, but they had a blast.  Cole was the first to throw in the towel.  Brendan and Owen probably would've stayed all day.

Graduation

Unphotogenic

Is a little cooperation too much to ask for??  All I asked for is one decent picture.  This is the stuff I got.  

Bitch, please.

She has the camera.  RUN!!!!

It's a fine line between smile and silly

Pretty sure those are reindeer tracks

Ask all you want.  You're not getting a smile from me.  

Isaac

As you can see, he loves Aunt April.

The mummy and the scarecrow

The scarecrow is not to be confused with a cowboy.  Or a farmer.

First day of Pre-K

Brendan started school last week.  He goes two days a week and LOVES it.  We weren't quite sure how it was going to go because before he started he didn't want to even talk about anything school related because he was so nervous.  We expected the first day to be terrible.  I walked in to wake him up and he popped out of bed and was ready to go.  We all piled in the car and took him to school his first day.  Owen was especially excited because he was convinced he got to go to school too.

Ready to go!!

SMILE!!!!  Oh dear God, I changed my mind.  Don't smile!

When I say don't smile I don't mean this!  There has to be a happy medium.  

Off to class!!
