Back to School

Yes it is true, the good ole school schedule is back into action over here. It has been a bit of an adjustment for me, Trevor on the other hand is doing great.

Yesterday Trevor had his 4 year old check up and got 2 shots, or as we called them, "medicine in his arm." He was so brave, he even thanked the nurse and doctor for their services. The Doctor proceeded to tell him and myself the importance of wearing a helmet at all times and shared with me some pretty frightening stories. We are generally fairly good about helmet wearing but you can guess he will be sportin it at all times now! :-) Thanks Doc for the good reminder.

We also had preschool orientation yesterday morning, it is going to be a great year there it feels like. Just that we can pray for each other and openly talk about that is such a comfort to me. I am hoping he can make some new friends here too.

Our little buddy is growing up soooo much, it seems these last 3 months have been huge for us. Some of my favorites that come to my mind our his morning wake ups. He will come into our room, (Daddy is usually already long gone to work) and crawl up onto the bed.....he will gently shake my shoulder and say "wiggle, wiggle, Good morning." He then proceeds to ask for white milk, a show on TV and a blankie on his piggies. Yes in that order every morning. Another favorite is lunch time. We typically have peanut butter and jelly. Each time I ask if he'd like his bread cut into triangles or squares and EVERY STINKIN time the goof ball asks for circles. EVERY TIME he tells me he can do it. At least he is consistent right? He also is very into us watching him do all sorts of things. He waits until we are both looking at the sames times and will continue to ask until he has both of our eyes glued to him. No more keepin an eye on what we were doing, he wants to show us his accomplishments with our 100% attention. Good thing he is getting a brother or sister soon to share the attention with. :-) Speaking of which he is getting asked whether it is a boy or girl. He rather consistently stated he would like a boy. After many a conversation we have convinced this dude that God gets to decide a boy or girl and either one will be good. :-) He is riding his bike all over the place now, we have even gone for bike rides and he really does keep up quite easily. We still do have the occasional request to ride in the bike trailer though too! ;)

All in all it has been a fantastic summer, enjoyed by all of us. Pictures to follow soon.
