First Field Trip!

Tristyn went on his first field trip with his class October 1st. They went to Green Meadows Farm. They rode the pony's , fed the animals and I was told even got to see a chicken have an egg I believe. I was not able to chaperone this time around, but I will be able to go on the next one and I will be volunteering also in the classroom.

Just Hysterical!! Brother and Sister Time!

Its sooo funny! Listen to the WHOLE thing! Make sure your sound is on...

Conners Birthday...

Tristyn's friend from school had a party this weekend for his birthday. His actual birthday was last sunday, but since he is a right when school start boy, they had his party this last weekend. This is a friend that was in his class last year and now this year too.

Italia Festival- The Summer is Ending

Today we went to the Italian Festival. As the summer is winding down there are some festivals and carnivals going on. We had fun. Tristyn got free rides for an hour, we had some pretty good food and enjoyed the last of the warm days before that fall weather comes in.

Beach Time

After we went to the Carnival today we decided to hang out at the Beach. It was very quiet, warm enough to swim for a while and it was much much fun. Rob almost caught a really big blue fish, but both his rods got tangled and he lost it before he got it all the way in. :(

-Tristyn and Missy; Lauren took a nice family picture of us; All 3 kids, Missy, Jessica and Tristyn; Rob reeling in the fish; Maya following the ball into the water after Tristyn, and Jessica in the background.

18 Weeks/4 Month Check up

Went to the doctor today for the 4 month check up. Today she is 18 weeks old. She weighs in at 15 lbs 2 oz and is now reaching to 25.5 in long! She is getting so big. Everything checked out well and she had two shots today. We are now onto cereal with some fruit in it. Very yummy! She is starting to try and hold onto her bottle, little by little. She has rolled over twice from back to front, but can't quite get front to back yet. She can scoot herself all the way around her bed tho if she wants to. She smiles all the time and is really starting to laugh. She is getting to be a lot of fun around here and she fits right in with her loud mouth, she has to try and compete with the child who won't stop talking, she has her work cut out for her!!!

School for EVERYONE!

Well BIG news for everyone here! Not only did Tristyn start kindergarten but I got accepted to online school, SUNY Empire State College. Tristyn has to wear a uniform now, which he doesn't seem to like to much, altho it is cute I think. He is in Mrs. Sillivan's K-2, Kinder class. He is a big boy now! I am sure it will take some getting used to but in time he will have fun. He has a few kids in his class from last year. They all got split up between his class and another kinder class, there are three total. Its going to be an interesting year with him and I both doing school! (My College acceptance letter; Tristyn at the school; Daddy and Baby with T before orientation; Picking him up from Mrs. Sullivan; and his first day of Kinder was today! That is his uniform, it's cute, but the tie is missing!)
