Gavin's First Day of School 7/25/2007

It was Gavin's first day of school. This is a picture of him in his mom and dad's bed. He was so excited he got up early so I told him to sleep a little longer in my bed. He woke up excited and stayed that way all day.


I took pictures of him getting ready. We did our act of kindness and this is Gavin and Autumn fixing their hair (back pack is on!!).

My three little sweet hearts so cute!!

His favorite part of the day: the Bus Ride!! It was hard for me to let Gavin go on this bus with a bunch of stangers. He was confident and ready to got but I didn't want to let him go, I held back the tears.

After Gavin got on the bus we met him at his school for a Boo Hoo Breakfast for all the moms. This is Gavin standing outside his classroom # 6!! Gavin got right in his classroom and found his chair sat down and started coloring. The little girl next to him was crying this didn't seem to bother Gavin.
What a fun day!!

Pretty normal morning so far, Autumn is into throwing her food when she's finished eating. This morning it was her oatmeal bowl and her english muffin with strawberry jam. Oh well the floor needed a good cleaning.

Roaring Springs Water Park

Today we went to the water park as a family. We used the rest rooms and Dave, Gavin and Noah were waiting for me. I came out and said, "Let's go." Dave, Gavin and I started walking and I had to turn back around to encourage Noah to come along. He was swinging himself around in circles just as an older gentleman walk by. Just then Noah swung around one more time and as the man walked past him, Noah swung his hand up and slapped the old man right in the butt!!! The smacking noise was so loud because of wet swim trunks.
Then man jumped around and looked at Noah and then at me, and I just said, "Uuuummm, aaahh.......this one is in his own little world." Luckily the man just chuckled and walked away. I caught up with Dave and Gavin and started to laugh. Only Noah. We had a great time, Autumn came for a few hours and then I took her home and a baby sitter stayed with her. I was really nervous about leaving her because she usually cries for strangers but she did great and the baby sitter said she didn't cry at all, that's my girl. We finished the night by going over to our friends' house the Paynes to celebrate their daughter, Bailey's Birthday. We ate cake and ice cream (which was our dinner for the night). Gavin came in crying because a nighbor kid, Connor hit and soaked him with a water balloon. I told him to "get him back!" He started to smile and went running out the door.

Craziness is just my normal day.

I got up to the sound of Autumn's little bear that went off in her crib. I squeezed my eyes tight in hopes that she might not wake up-she did. Kids up and moving with Children's Miracle Music. Made home made mac-n-cheese with whole wheat noodle-didn't go over to well they did eat some of it though.
After I got the crew lunch and cleaned up I laid on the couch for a second and could here mischief happening but I ignored it. Gavin and Noah dumped clothes, blankets, pillows, diapers, cushions and anything else they could find into the stair well and started jumping. I told them that's probably not such a good idea right now because were not insured, so I let them jump a few more time and then I told them to put it away.
I came into the kitchen to find Noah Peeing in my glass bottle, my, he is my special boy.
Tonight it was nice because there was cloud cover not so hot, only about 90. Autumn hurt her fingers by trying to sit on the neighbor's electric scooter and it smashed them pretty good. I was giving her meds and running her fingers under cold water and Noah came in and told me that Ally(neighbor girl across street) dropped a glass bottle and it broke. It sounded suspicious and so I pressured him for more info. He said, "Uh I guess I broke it so I went out and discovered that Noah, surprise surprise, had opened the back door to van and took out a glass bottle(for DI) and threw it and it smashed and broke in the driveway.
Cleaned glass up, went in gave the kids a bath had them finish cleaning up the blankets etc. which had been dumped upstairs in a big heap, and went to bed
