Table Manners - Lesson #2

The other night we had our second table manner lesson with Quinn. She is taking to proper manners like a duck to water. See for yourself!

Bending it like a Barton!

Well, week 2 of soccer went much better than week 1. It didn't take much since he refused to step foot on the field week 1. I'll admit, it was pretty terrifying - hundreds of 4-5 year old boys EVERYWHERE!
This week he enjoyed his time on the field and on Sunday asked, "Do I have soccer today?"

I'm sorry...I can't quite hear you.

Oh, you're saying you don't want you picture taken. Well, I'm sorry sweetie.

People are always saying, "Life is short". Yeah, well sometimes, some days life is r-e-a-l-l-y looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong.

So excited he almost peed

While we were back on my parents farm my dad had a new combine delivered. Connor has always been way into trucks, trains, tractors, semis - basically if it has wheels it is cool. So, for him to get to see this huge piece of equipment come in on a semi-flatbed, well it was just about the coolest thing that has ever happened to him "for real life". So much so in fact that we kept asking him if he had to go potty. To this he replied, "NO, I'm just really excited. (duh mom, oh and please stop asking)."

Some things change...

while others remain exactly the same.

We're back!

So many pictures to download and so little time. Thank you to our families for hosting us, entertaining our children and feeding us such delicious meals. We enjoy every minute, every sip and every bite!
Pictures from the trip to come soon. Stay tuned...
