First Homework

Wow how times have changed, homework in kindergarten. School has definetely changed over the years. I remember kindergarten as letter people, snacks and coloring, I think we started learning to read towards the end of the year. Now kindergarten is reading and writing stations, they even have art, music, gym, and library time. Hunter went to preschool for 2 years, and school was still a huge shock to his system, I think it took almost 2 months for him to adjust (we did have 1 or 2 days in the red, but he is so social that it gets in trouble for talking too much). You get report cards in kindergarten now, we had to go to parent teacher conferences to receive those. He is doing well though and can now read about 30 words.

This was his first homework..........its amazing how much better his drawing and writing has gotten in 2 months.

Introducing Gabby

Back in September, Danny thought that Bo was becoming too laid back, so why not get a puppy to make him more lively. Gabby was born on July 4th and she is a brindle boxer.

When we first got her.

They love each other, when we first got her she would try to nurse on him..........

Getting bigger.

Holiday World 2009

We went to Holiday World back in September with Phillip and Taylor. This was Hunter's second visit this summer, but our first. The kids had a blast, and Brayden did much better then expected. I didn't put him on many rides because I feared that he would get up in the middle of it. Hunter was disappointed that he couldn't ride any roller coasters, but he will definetely be tall enough to go next year. I can't wait then we will have Brayden screaming because he can't go on them yet.

Finally conquered his fear of squirting water

Not really sure why he looks mad.

Posing in the Bunny Bread

I think he rode this about 50 times in a row..............the girl would just let them stay on if no one was in the line.
