Fall Update!


So I have really slacked on the blog this month. We had the Olympics and seasons 1-3 of The Office that took up our late nights and then we had the start of school and with that a new routine that gets the kids to bed early. I have been cooking in the kitchen (I know shocking huh) and cleaning out clothes in the closet. I also have put in some more hours at work to cover vacations. All I can say is that our household has been super busy so the blog went out the window.

The most important change is Makenzie going to 1st grade!! We were so excited for her to meet some more friends and eat lunch in the cafeteria. She gets to walk home with the neighbor kids. We are so proud of her and love hearing about her day. Recess is the fav because she gets to be a jaguar. That's our Makenzie :)

Trent ended his summer softball and started fall softball. Hopefully they will come out better this season ;) His work also started up their annual flag football season which I think they are really going to do great in this year! Does anyone else who reads this blog hate Fantasy Football like me? Trent is on two teams and I think that is self explanatory!

Colton is doing preschool at his babysitters and loves it. His days at home are a little boring to him especially if Tait is napping. He misses Makenzie and the neighbor kids and watches out the window for our neighbor Jordan to come home from Kindergarten.

Tait is learning to walk and cope with new molars. He is such a happy kid and will drive cars all over the house. He is also learning animal sounds, his favorite being a dog. Especially when he can hear the neighbors dog barking in the morning.

We were able to go down to Richfield for Labor Day weekend. We shucked corn and Trent went dove hunting and fishing with the boys. We also started the Biggest Loser Rowley version so wish us luck to win the pot!!

Thanks for posting about your kids...it is always fun to read about them since we don't get to see them much. We love the office and it consumes our time as well as we have been re-watching the past seasons to gear up for September 25th...trust me we are counting down. :) We love it and I never thought I could get hooked to something so dumb (or else I thought it was dumb), but I did! :) We hope all is well and thanks for updating us on your cute kids.

I loved the update! Yay for a new school year! Such cute pics of the kids, too.

I won't be wishing you luck in winning the Biggest Loser Pot...because it will be me who wins! I will wish you luck on eating my dust though. :0)

The kids are getting so big. I love the makenzie stories. Told Scott about her waking up to get dressed really fast. True makenzie. Colton is a cutie and what can you say about Tait except that you don't want to rest your arm on his car seat.
