First day of "school"

Today was the first day of "school" for the boys. It is a Mother's Day Out(MDO) program at a church in our neighborhood and they go Tuesday and Thursday from 9:30-2. Christopher went this summer for the 6 weeks and enjoyed it, but cried just about everyday when I dropped him off. Cole is in the baby room and Christopher is in the oldest room since he missed the cut off for 3 yr old preschool. He was very excited this morning and said he wasn't going to cry because he didn't want to sit in the "sad" chair. Christopher went with me to bring Cole to his room and he started getting a little sad, but we then brought him to his room and he went right in and started playing with some trucks. I told him bye and he didn't even look up at me, so I think he will be just fine. I had all intentions of taking pictures of Cole at school, but left my camera at home. I will try and get some pics when I pick him up. As for me I am going to an adult only lunch today, I don't think I will know what to do with myself.

He didn't want his picture taken.. shocking!

He finally caved in and let me take one

Yesterday Cole was 7 months old, only 5 more months until my baby turns 1. These were pictures taken last night during bath time. We don't go back to the Dr until 9 months, but we did go last week because Cole hasn't been feeling well. He still weighs 17 lb 14 oz so it seems that he will be the total opposite of big brother...tall and skinny.

Gameday

GO GATORS !!!

Last night we were able to watch the Gators on TV! I got the boys dressed in Gator gear and got Christopher all pumped up for the game. When the team was running out on the field Christopher was doing the Gator Chomp, it was toooo cute. I didn't have my camera next to me at the time so I couldn't capture the moment, but I will not let that happen again!! At half time I was looking online for some new Gator gear for the boys and Christopher was in my lap. Of course Christopher wanted everything he saw, but he saw a Gator "Mack" die cast truck and wants one for his birthday. In fact the first thing he said when he woke up this morning was, "Mama will you go buy me a Gator Mack today?" To explain "Mack"... Christopher's favorite movie right now is Cars and there is an 18 wheeler named "Mack" that hauls Lightning McQueen. Here are pictures of my precious Gators

A Day on the Lake

Last weekend even though Gustav was in the Gulf we headed down south for a weekend with Caroline. The weather was absolutely gorgeous that Saturday and we spent the afternoon on the lake. It was the kids first time on a boat and Christopher surprised me and loved it! Below are some of the pics from the day and as you can see me child who spent the majority of the summer afraid of the pool got in the lake.
