Judson's First Day of Preschool

 This Sweet Boy started Preschool this morning!

 He looked so big going in, but he's in the right room...Little Monkeys:)

He also carried his bag all the way in...

 Sometimes with it over his head:)

 But he found his hook...

 and unloaded it!  SUCH a Big BOY!

He said he'd go back tomorrow, so we're all breathing a sigh of relief!!!

Judson's Meet The Teacher

Judson went to his Meet The Teacher on Thursday!

He's going Monday, Tuesday, Thursday this year:)

He's actually in the same classroom as he was in the Toddler Class 2 years ago...some different toys though!

 And one new teacher...Ms. Lori (on the left), but Ms. Shelly (on the right) was his Toddler teacher 2 years ago, and his first crush!  HE LOVED Ms Shelly!

 The end of school, 2 years ago...look how little!!!

 And this was the first day of school that year...just for kicks...

 Baby, baby!!!

And finally with his new SLC Bag!  He was super excited about having his own bag!!!

Almost time for his first day today!!!!!

Longhorn vs. New Mexico State Aggies Game

 Saturday morning, we headed west to Austin (YAY) for the game that night!

Along the way, we stopped at Buccee's in Bastrop (bottom left picture), Salt Lick (YUM) (top picture), and the Co-Op (bottom right picture).

Salt Lick has done a ton of work since we were there!  They have this new awesome kid area (Kid Ranch) that the boys had a blast running around and playing on.  I did remind them several times that we do have one of these things called Play Sets at our house:)

 After a pit stop at the hotel, we headed to the game!

It felt good to be back at DKR for a fresh, new season!

 The Longhorns started out really slow, but they got their act together at the end of the half, then dominated the second half!  It was pretty AWESOME!!!

Paul David did this a lot...it was so cute!!!  

Judson was a lot of fun, too with his little Horns Up!

Fun Night for us All!!!

Judson's Days

 While Brother's at school, Judson Plays!

Well, the first day, it was hard...the kid wants to EAT ALL DAY LONG!  It's hard!  When he wants a snack (which is every 10 minutes...not kidding), he comes in and says, "Hungry, Hungry Hippo!"  That means he needs food!  HA!

So the second day we spent together, we came home from the Y, and I got down a tray...

I filled it with lots of snacks and a water bottle, set it on the couch, and we were both happy until lunch!  Perfect!!!!

By the end of the week, he'd found my old flip phone and the holder for it!

I showed him where he should wear it...

He called himself a Policeman.  He really is too cute, and if you give him plenty of food, he plays all day:)

Paul David's First Day of First Grade

 Such a Big Boy!!!!

 Busy at his table!!!!

 With Mrs. Keeton!

Mimi asked Paul David about his teacher after he had met Mrs. Keeton.  At Meet the Teacher, she had on a Purple sparkly dress and looked really nice.  So, Paul David said that his teacher was "pretty and shiny!"  So cute!  I think we're going to have an amazing year!  He's just bubbling with excitement everyday when he comes home from school!!!!

Paul David's Meet The Teacher

 On Friday, we went to school to Meet Paul David's Teacher!

He was so excited to find his seat!!!!

 And his name on Mrs. Keeton's Doors (although you can't see it because the boys are written in blue:)

We're all pretty excited for his first day of First Grade!!!!

Skating

 On Wednesday before school started, we went skating!  Paul David did really well...well, for someone with spider legs and hasn't really skated but once this year!  HA!  He could at least make it around, and we didn't end up in the ER!  Success!!!

 Judson had a hard time even with the walker...he ended up having a blast riding his scooter though!

Beach Day with Friends!

 We had been planning a beach day in Galveston with our friends all summer long!  It was hard to get everyone's schedules aligned to go, but we got some friends down there!

Dylan, Judson, Lily, Leo, Mae and Paul David and Jaylen in front!

Jake was not having any pictures made:(

 The weather didn't cooperate with us on this trip either...boo, stinky weather!!!!

So, we made the best of it, and loaded up and headed to the Strand!

 And had a sweet treat!

It ended up being a fun day with our friends, and one last hurrah before school starts again!
