I'm coming to getcha!

Maddy has finally started crawling and got her first tooth all in the same week. I was sitting on the floor, trying to get a picture of her crawling. Everytime I would sit down on the floor with her, she would crawl over, bite me and laugh. I was finally able to get a picture of her crawling...unfortunately, it was of her crawling at me and I was nervous.

Back into the swing...

Hunter is great with Maddy...it's obvious he loves her (he always wants to give her a bath) and as you can see in her smile....she LOVES him too!

We're trying to get back into the swing of:
7:45 Maddy Bath
8:00 Maddy Bottle
8:15 Maddy Bed
8:15 Hunter Shower
8:30 Hunter Bed

So far, so good...but that's one night. We'll see how tomorrow night goes with football practice ending at 8:00, grabbing Subway for dinner on the way home, bypassing the bath for Maddy because it's just too late and arguing with Hunter that a shower after football practice is necessary.

First Day of School Dinner...

Yes, we're suckers for our kids and we admit it. Hunter suckered us into dinner at "Cheeseburger in Paradise" which totally goes against the "healthy eating" that Charlie & I are desperately trying to adopt. The adoption process is not going well.

First Day of School for Hunter

Well...today was Hunter's first day of the 4th grade! He didn't know who his teacher would be until school started this morning. All I heard for the last week was, "I hope I don't get Mrs. Smith. She is SO mean."

I waited outside of the school until they posted the class lists for the parents. Low and behold...out of 4 teachers and 60 kids, Hunter was paired up with Mrs. Smith! As he arrived home on the bus today, I was greeted with a HUGE smile and I was told, "Mrs. Smith isn't that bad. She told me I did a great job today. I think I kinda like her."

What a relief. Of course, we'll see what he says when he gets homework on the weekend.

He already started on his homework? OMG!!! Please tell me this teacher is a miracle worker!
