First Day of Preschool!

September 2011 - watson kids update

Sorry its been over a month since I posted any updates on here, but we have been busy having fun out in the sun.  We had amazing weather these last few weeks of summer and we enjoyed it as mich as possible. Lots of time at the pool and the lake and in the backyard!

First Day of Preshool

 

Connor was all ready to go to!

Lauren loves playing with the big kids and going with them to the bus,

only a few more years and she'll be on the bus too!

She did great at preschool, she said she only cried for a little bit and commented on how the other kids weren't good at sharing even when she said please (she acted shocked).  I guess there was an issue over a glue stick and someone not sharing with her, but Lauren said dont worry mom I'll teach that mean girl how to share and say please and thank you, im interested to see how that goes. Shes going twice a week and she even had homework for her all about me poster.  Hopefully she keeps having fun! 

Connor is still the biggest boy he can be, he loves to get dirty and make boy noises.  He can copy a lot of words and answers questions by noding his head yes or no.  He can also tell you when he has an icky diaper and goes and gets a new one for you, I see potty training coming in a few months! yikes!

Phineas & Ferb

Last week we let the kids stay up and watch the Phineas and Ferb movie on TV. Its Laurens favorite show and she pretty much reminded us everyday that it was on friday at 8, so we let them watch it and then had a campfire after. Lauren had to roast marshmallows and then she decided she doesnt like marshmallows, go figure.... Lauren starts preschool next month and Connor is finally copying words and getting much better at communicating - They are growing up way to fast!

GARAGE SALE AND SWIMMING FUN!

This month has been full of summer fun. Lots of pool/sprinkler time and playing in the sun.

Joe is still recovering so we've stayed pretty close to home but we've caught up on lots of family time and cartoons!

We had a garage sale last saturday and Connor is our best little helper!

He just HAD to help out so I got him his own spray bottle of water and some paper towels.

He went around spraying stuff (kind of) and wiping it off.

Lauren is still pretty reluctant to try anything new but is slowly learning to swim (thanks uncle michael), I think it may be a 2 year learning process.  She hates getting water on her face and is pretty much terrified to let go of her floaties and try it on her own. But shes still our little helper around the house and with Connor and  she starts preschool next month! That'll be interesting!

July 21st 2011

Well not much has been going on this month, mostly just laying low and helping Joe to recover from his surgery.  Connor is getting into everything as usual and being his crazy fun self and Lauren is growing up so fast, she is super excited for preschool and loves to draw, paint and read books.  Hope we get to hang out with everyone a little more before summer ends now that Joe is feeling better!

Here is a picture of Connor at the Chiropractor, he loves it and we think its made a huge difference with him and his sleeping, etc...  then later the same day he got his finger stuck in a cabinet and ripped half the skin off (poor bubba).

On a more positive note Lauren now knows how to ride her bike, except when she gets tired she says we have to stop because shes out of gas. Love them! 

And our 5 year wedding anniversary is on friday, can't believe how much has happened since then. 

   

It's been a while and we've been very busy. Had the last 2 weeks off to take care of Joe after his surgery so the kids and I got to have a few fun trips out and about and got to enjoy the sun before I had to go back to work. Thank you to everyone for all of your help these last few weeks, Joe is finally on the road to recovery and doing much better!!!

When did he get so big?... Going down the slide at the Zoo.
