Owen turns 1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It took him awhile to figure things out as you can see from a couple pics, but once he did, I think he thought it was quite great!  I love crying pictures so I had to include that one, and the messy cake pictures are always a must.  This kid is sure getting a personality, and I love him!

Soccer Fall 2012

Alex's first year playing, he did a lot of running up and down the field just watching the other kids, but he had a blast.  His favorite part of course was getting the snack at the end of the games and the trophy at the end of the season. :)
 

 
Awesome spectators!

 

 

It was a lot of fun watching Nathan play this year.  His age group really is getting the game.  It was fun to watch him steal the ball.
 

It made for some tired and sweaty boys! 

Matching Jammies

 

These kids LOVE to wear matching pajamas.  They think it is the coolest thing ever, and I'll take it while I can.  Owen wasn't quite walking yet, so they are helping him stand.

 

Silly boys!

 

Nathan's first day of Kindergarten

 

 

Nathan is LOVING Kindergarten.  It is all day which I LOVE as well. ;)  He goes 4 days a week and always has Monday off which has become our stay at home day (mostly).  John will occassionally have Monday off as well and then we can have a fun family outing. We love the schedule!  Alex has had a bit of a hard time with Nathan being gone so long, but he and Owen get along great and play well together.  He always wants to stay with Nathan at school.  We do go volunteer in class once a week so he gets to hang out with Nathan then!

Brudders and Family

These boys sure love each other!

Nathan-5

Nathan is such a good big brother. He is very helpful and mature for his age. He is reading really well and loves to read. It makes me excited that he is reading simple chapter books already. He will start Kindergarten in a couple weeks. I am happy that he will be challenged and learn more, but I will be sad that I'll lose my good helper during the day! Luckily he has set a good example and Alex does a lot of the things that Nathan does. It sure pays to discipline and train your kids!

Nathan loves to paint, draw and color. He is pretty creative and imaginative too.

Riding his scooter at the skate park. He is quite good on a skateboard too!

He was so excited to go fishing with Papa (Gpa Jemmett) this summer.

He was so excited to play Tball this year. He caught on really fast considering he didn't play last year. He will definitely play again next year! Next is soccer. :)
