He's Growing Up!

This summer's been fun, full of learning and firsts. We visited the farm in South Dakota, he took swim lessons two times and practiced at home and in Jackie & Susie's pool, spent lots of time in Daddy daycare, spent a week with Poppy & Granna, fed horses for the first time, participated in his first VBS, and shot his first gun. He learned how to write some of his letters, and even drew his first family portrait. Overall, it was a great summer!

Look Who's Five!

David recently celebrated his 5th birthday with family and a "How To Train Your Dragon" cake. We ate at Cafe Antigua, bought some soccer shoes for his upcoming season, and napped before the party began. Then it was all fun and lots of cake and ice cream! Happy 5th b-day, kiddo!

Pre-K, Here We Come!

And so it begins...David started his Pre-K program yesterday and had a blast. He and I both were pretty calm and relaxed about it all, probably because Kyle and I took him for a visit last week and have been talking it up until now. When we picked him up, he was nothing but smiles, and his teacher, Ms. Staci, said he did really well and was incredibly polite. The morning teacher, Ms. Diane, said the same thing this morning when I dropped him off. "He has manners!" (That was definitely nice to hear.) His favorite aspect of the day was riding the little red bike; he said he was pretending to be Lightning McQueen off of the CARS movie. Looks like he's off to a great start because he's all smiles when we drop him off and pick him up!
