Raylea, FIVE. Jack, TWO.

 
 
 
Raylea has been really enjoying school. This week was letter "F." Hard to believe she's almost done with 6 weeks! It's flown by!
 
 
Monday was her birthday. I can't hardly believe she is 5 years old. That just seems so much older than 2, 3, or 4. It's a milestone!
 
 
Monday, October 10th, 2011.
 
Just a minute after we got in recovery room lots of family and friends rushed in to meet her.
 


 
She has always loved her Daddy special...
 



 

 
 
Her first birthday picture.
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
She for sure enjoyed her day. She woke up and wanted banana bread, so I put a candle on it, like every year I do with breakfast on her birthday... and we sang to her and she blew it out. Then she did school, then we met her Daddy at Chuck E Cheese for lunch with Jack. They had a BLAST. Jack gave her his gift he got her, which was a tea set that sings "I'm a little teapot..."
 

 
 
 
Jack loved Chuck-E... Raylea is still scared of him.
 
 
 
 
This last Saturday they shared a party and it went sooo good. Our friends Dan and Melanie drove about an hour to be able to be there with their three kids. They even had gotten in after midnight from Texas the night before! They love us and our kids so much and they SHOW it! They each had plenty of friends from church and that made it so special. Boston Bruns who is a couple months old came and it was her first ever birthday party to be at! Raylea was so excited to see her family and friends there and Jack just wanted to eat cake and look at his new toys!
 
 





 
 
 
 
 
Jack turns TWO tomorrow! Which is just crazy to me. I'll never forget hearing him cry the first time and holding him close. Him and his sister are the best of friends, although they are sooo different.
 
 
This was last week...
 
 
 
 
Monday, October 13th, 2014.
The first night with Jack Gannon.
The first thing the Dr. said was that he had broad shoulders!
I would say so, being born a month early and being six pounds and 14 ounces!
He will be big and strong like his Daddy.
 
 


 
 
 
 
THANKS to everyone who made this week special for my kids.
 
 
Not only did it make them feel loved, but it made Grant and I as their parents feel so loved.
 
 
AS ALWAYS.. thanks for reading. :)

September FLEW by

 
 
 
Been a couple weeks, I realized!
 
 
 
A couple weeks ago she learned about objects that can float and that depends on how dense the item is... she liked that.
I learned some things myself...
 
 
 
 
For the art project she painted a cat during week "C"... she works pretty intently...

 
The cooking project that week was "corn muffin hot dogs."
She loved using the knife!
 


 
They were pretty delish!
 

 
 
Here's some pictures I took this past month...
