Happy Birthday Scotty!

Happy 7th Birthday to Scotty!!  Scotty has had a wonderful year and he is excited for his birthday.  He finished Kindergarten and then started 1st grade.  He is doing really well at school and loves 1st grade.  He is an excellent reader and is way above grade level in math.  He loves science and history the most. Scotty had some vision therapy and his eyesight improved greatly.  He still loves Star Wars and to play Lego Star Wars on the Wii.  He started soccer and is having a lot of fun playing.  He has been rock climbing and skiing with his Dad and loves to snowmobile and sled at Grandpa Scott's cabin.  Scotty is an awesome kid.  He loves to invent things and is always surprising us with the things he makes.  He has a great imagination and uses things around the house to make whatever he is dreaming of.  He is a good friend and the Moms of his friends all say how well he plays with their sons.  He is kind and helpful with his brothers and they look up to him so much.  He lost his first tooth and was very happy to have finally lost one!  We love having Scotty in our family.  He makes us laugh and is quick to give a hug to help cheer you up.  We're very proud to be his parents.  We love you Scotty!!

Here are some pics of him from this past year.

Muffin Tin Monday

Muffin Tin Monday at Muffintinmom.com

We did a muffin tin dinner and a movie. The boys were so excited!!

They had bananas, grapes (some grapes and ham were snatched while I was getting ready to take the picture!), cheese cubes and rolled up ham. I gave them little picks to eat with and they loved it.

They DEVOURED the first tray, so I had to do another one.

In the 2nd one I put apples, grapes, ham, cheese and some requested tortillas. They ate every single scrap of this one too. Hungry boys!

Stop by Muffin Tin Mom to see more fun MTMs.

Happy Birthday Collin!

It's Collin's 3rd birthday today!! It's very hard to believe that our youngest is 3. Collin is excited for his birthday and told me tonight "I'm going to wake up and come out and get a bulldozer and say Wow!" He makes me laugh all the time. He makes everyone laugh. He is full of energy and curiosity and lives life to the fullest. He loves books and I'm fortunate to be able to spend lots of time with him on my lap reading stories together. He loves trains, trucks, bulldozers, diggers, garbage trucks, his blankies, Cars 2, and has just discovered Toy Story and says that Buzz Lightyear is his favorite toy! He is adventurous and keeps up with his big brothers- and many times will do thing they won't! He definitely has brought a lot of happiness, excitement, craziness and laughter to our family. We love you Collin!!! To the moon and back!

Here are some pictures of him from the past year.
