Our Month of September
Labor Day we had a little get together with some friends. Nonni and Papa were gone so we used their backyard!
Wyatt and Jake
The boys had lots of fun swimming
James started 1st grade! It is a huge change from Kindergarten. A very long day with having to leave the house at 7:30 in the morning makes it hard on all of us! It is definitely a group effort trying to get this guy out of the house!
His teacher's name is Mrs. Chadez
Looking so grown up
Jake started his second year of pre-school. He is in school now three days a week. Even having an extra four hours a week to myself I don't seem to have time to get things done!
Jake and his teacher Mrs. Wilson
The boys had their first soccer games. James' team the Minions...
Water break
James isn't too enthusiastic about playing soccer. He has figured out he does not like to play forward. But he is improving little by little each game.
Go Minions!
Jake's team, the Blue Ninjas. I don't know if that was a good choice for a team name because all the boys seem to think they really are ninjas. I even heard Jake making karate chop noises! LOL!
Brianna's cousin Barrett is on Jake's team.
It is getting to the end of our swimming season. Shark boy James.
Third soccer game in and James falls down while running. The ref was in front of him and didn't see him fall down. The ball started coming towards the ref so he starts backing up. James was still on the ground, just starting to list himself off the ground and boom! The 250lb ref trips over James, falls and smashes James' face into the dirt. Poor kid. I thought his nose might be broken! I was so worried he was going to be traumatized and not to want to play anymore. He sat out the rest of the game but next game he was back in with no problem!
I was getting ready to cut Jake's hair and he tells me he wants a mohawk. We were shocked. Where did he even come up with this idea! At first I didn't know how I felt about it. So I cut as little of a mohawk as I could. I didn't want it to be drastic.
We ended up liking it and I cut it again two weeks later a little bit shorter!
It was National Pirate Day so here is Jake in his Pirate gear!
Nonni got a new refrigerator and I have never seen a kid so interested and excited! He was so thrilled she was getting a new one and now wants us to get a new one. James was so into it and listening to the delivery people with all their instructions and asking him questions the delivery man was calling James by first name! That kid is so funny!
We went to the church's Oktoberfest. Yes it is in September!
We met up with some friends, Logan and Kira.
Jake and Wyatt
My friend Maria and I
Every game they have a player of the game and this day it was Jake!
His two coaches
His team
Going after the ball
Teammates
Throw in
Jake is much more of an aggressive player than James. Sometimes too aggressive!
He is so funny, he always stands with his arms like this calling out pass or I am open! So cute!
James being silly!
We have definitely been way busier back in school, soccer practice three nights a week and two soccer games every Saturday but it is so much fun!
