Ethan's First Day of Preschool

On Tuesday, Sept. 11th, Ethan started preschool. I was totally fine with him going, I didn't think it would bother me at all, even while we were there I was totally fine, then the teachers said "Ok moms, give kisses and hugs and say goodbye." And I just lost it, I was so surprised that I did. I think it is not so much that I was leaving him, it was the fact that he is growing up so fast and is starting school. I am really having a hard time with this. Anyway, here are the pictures of this wonderful day, I apologize in advance, some of the pictures are blurry because I was holding Hannah while I was taking the pictures and she was trying to grab the camera the whole time. Oh and Ethan just loved preschool. He asked if he could go back again tomorrow, and I had to explain that he goes every other day. So I am so glad that he really enjoyed it.

Our Trip to Salt Lake City

We went to Salt Lake City for Labor Day, and had so much fun! Dave had to fly home on Monday to be back to school, and the kids and I stayed another week. We did tons of shopping, of course, and went to the Dinosaur Musuem at Thanksgiving Point, and spent lots of fun time with our families, even though we all missed dad.

BOWLING!

We went to one of Dave's classmates little boys birthday party. It was at the Red Rock Hotel's Bowling Alley. It was Ethan's first time bowling. We had such a good time.

Dave is explaining how to do it, and Ethan already tossed the ball down the lane.

More Pictures of Hannah!

Here is Hannah in the bathtub. She can now sit up in the tub and she splashes like crazy. She loves bathtime. She looks pretty serious here though. Maybe because her brother is in the tub with her, but he refused to get in the picture.

Hannah thinks it is so fun to sit in this little chair, she looks like she is reading, but she really just likes to chew on them.

Like I have said before, she absolutely loves to chew on her feet, here she is trying to get the whole foot in her mouth, we thought this was pretty funny.

We think Hannah is going to have naturally curly hair, everytime we get her hair wet it goes curly. So I try to do it curly because it looks so cute, but by the time she rolls around on the floor and takes a nap, or gets in her car seat, the curl is rubbed straight.

Ethan usually has a fit if Hannah touches his toys, but he was out of the room, so she decided to go for it while he wasn't looking.
