Football Frenzy!!

We all went to the Rams game on Sunday, October 17th with my parents! We tailgated before the game! My dad grilled hot dogs and mom made goodies. The boys played a football toss game! We then went inside the Dome and watched the Rams beat the Chargers! Go RAMS!

Colin and Papa

Starting School!

The bell sounded...it was time for school!

Brendan started pre-school last Thursday

and Colin started August 19th!

The year is off to a great start!!

Two Room Renovation

We renovated both of the boys' rooms this summer!

They actually swapped rooms so Colin could have

a long wall to put his 'fathead' on!

Of course, Brendan had to go with a Buzz Lightyear/Toy Story theme!

I can't believe we have two big boy rooms in our house! Colin's room

Brendan's room

Proud Moment!

Brendan is officially potty-trained! This was my main goal for this summer and it was completed!! He had to be potty-trained to go to school and since he is three and a half!!!
He has the toys (not Toy Story surprisingly...we are into Batman now too!) that he was rewarded with after his accomplishment! Knock on wood, but we have not had any accidents and we even gave all the pull-ups away to Brendan's cousins!
Yippee!!!

Lake Weekend!!!

We went to the lake this weekend with the Broyles! It was a great time...good weather, good food and good times!

Who doesn't fall asleep
on a boat!?!

More Pool Fun!

We just can't get enough of the pool this summer!
We have been the last 4 days! It is cloudy today so I think we will take a break!


Brendan is becoming a little more
comfortable with getting his eyes wet!
I love him, but what a nut...where did he
get that issue?!















Brendan and Colin
playing!









This was on the lazy river at
Ballwin's pool...we met some
friends from work there!
Cool pool! Brendan wanted to
keep going on the 'wazy iver'!

Brendan's Tumbling Class

Brendan's tumbling class finished on Thursday night!
Not sure how much he learned, but he had a great time!
As can be seen from the action shots!




Look at me...I'm upside down!











I can balance on the beam!

Jumping on trampoline!

Somersault time!

Fun with hula-hoops!
