Build-A-Bear

My Mom has been wanting to take the boys to build a bear in Mackinaw City for awhile.  We had the chance while visiting this past summer and CJ thought it was great!   Brady on the other hand was not so sure about the experience but loves his new stuffed animal!

Butternut Squash

Tyler was so excited for the first squash from our garden.  CJ has fun when we get to pick anything from the garden so he was also excited.  Here we have silly CJ showing off the 1st squash!

First Day of School .... Together

The boys started going to a Mom's Day Out program this month.  We call it 'school.'  It is run like a pre-school.  Here the boys are on the first day together!

Best Seat In The House

Thanks to Sue & Andy S. for this fun to addition to our house!  The boys have been loving this blow up chair and think it is great.  Here Brady is enjoying it just in time for football season!

Pre-School

Today was CJ's first day of pre-school for the year - exciting day!!!  Hard to believe that next year he will be in kindergarten - wow how the time flies!  Here he is all ready for the big day!!

Drinking Foutain

Who knew so much fun could be had with a drinking fountain?  The boys had a great time playing with this and figuring out how it all worked.  CJ was explaining to Brady how the water came out and how it worked. 

 Brady was trying so hard to get a drink and all that happened was his hat got wet!

 Thanks Dad for the lift up - finally a drink!

Gum Ball

CJ was able to have his first gum ball ever – thank you Aunt Terri!  Now did he like it – not so much but I am sure he will try again!

Play Time

The boys have been having lets of fun with ths visit.  Here Nana and CJ play in one part of the toy room and Terri and Brady play in another.  One-on-one attention =  heaven for the boys and me!

River Front

We are enjoying a long weekend visit with my Mom and Aunt Terri!!!  We went down to the river front this morning and enjoyed a farmer's market and the river.  So happy to have them here!
