The Last Block



Nathan was finally able to finish the landscaping wall that he started back in May. He didn't want his picture taken, but I thought he needed the memory of placing the last block. Now next summer we can get it filled with dirt and lots of nice plants/flowers. For not really knowing what he was doing it turned out really nice!!!

Kindermusik



We signed Leland up for a Kindermusik class. We have gone twice now, he seemed to enjoy it more the second time, so hopefully he will continue to enjoy it.

1 Week and Counting



Well the light at the end of the tunnel is starting to get really bright!!!!!! Finally!!! Sutton has continued to do well during the day, night time not so well, but hopefully we will get sleep soon. He surprised us last Saturday when he rolled over twice. He no longer stays put. The instant he is put on the floor he is gone. We have a bet going to see how long it takes him to get moving once the cast comes off.

2 Weeks and Counting



It almost seems impossible that we only have 2 weeks left!!!! We are both getting pretty excited and wondering if we will recognize him without the cast. Sutton continues to be a trooper and has done well except for the fever/cold/virus that Leland decided to share with him. Leland came down with the wonderful stuff on Sunday and Sutton came down with it on Monday. Both of the boys are still trying to recover. Hopefully this won't be a long winter, especially considering this is only September!!!!!!

4 Weeks and Counting



Sutton went back for his 2 week check-up for his new cast today. Everything continues to be in the correct position. The best news of the appointment was that the cast will be coming off exactly one week from today and we won't have to go back until then!!! Sutton has figured out that when he is on his stomach on the floor that he can push back with his arms to move around. I think he is also really looking forward to a "real" bath. Everytime I clean him up now he insist on putting his hands in the water!!

Back To The Grind


I officially started work on August 26th and the boys officially started back to day care on September 2nd. The transition hasn't gone too bad, but boy do I miss being at home with them. Sutton has decided to fast while I am at work. Lynne even has a hard time getting him to eat his cereal, hopefully this doesn't last long. Leland is happy to be back. Lynne said he hasn't missed a beat!!

These Boots Are Made For Working


Leland thinks it is great fun to wear our shoes and we get a kick out of watching him try to walk in them. Nate's work boots were especially entertaining!!! Leland got a new pair of shoes awhile back and he has now decided that they are his work boots.

Just Like Daddy


We have a buck that has been coming into the backyard and when he shows up Nate always has to check out his rack witht he binoculars. Well this night Leland thought he needed a better look. Not sure how well the binoculars work from the opposite end, but he was having a good time anyway!!

The 1st tomato


Leland waited very patiently for the first tomato to turn red. He was very excited to get to pick the first red one!!It is a wonder it survived!!! He carried it around with him for awhile. I was finally able to get it from him to put it in the house and he kept asking me what I did with it.
