Happy Halloween

Note the Wow Wow Pumpkin that was a MUST have for Chloe..... The both looked too cute in their costumes. Chloe wore the headband all night and Andrew would not wear the mask that he just HAD to have with his costume. All was good though and they got a ton of candy that will be gone in appx. 5 days the way Andrew is eating it :)

Cowgirl Ironman :)

Andrew

Andrew riding a horse for the first time at our Fall Festival in our neighborhood this weekend. Apparently he thought it was fun.

Ok- and then there is this really bad picture but when the H*ll did he get so big :) He is getting taller and skinnier now :)

Andrew swimming again

He almost passed the level 2 class. The only thing that he could not do was swim all the way across the pool on his back. Maybe after one more class. He has learned so much in 3 classes.

Chilling watching TV

They are so cute and usually get along so well....

Chloe in her new shoes.

Andrew Swimming

He has gotten so much better in just the last 6 weeks since this one. I will have to try again this week to get him swimming across the whole pool now.

Matthews Alive

AKA Stumptown :) We went to a fall festival in Matthews today. The kids had a great time. It was the first time we have been to something like that. They had food, rides, games and all Andrew wanted was a balloon. We found him one. It was outrageously expensive. We were with some neighbors so it was 16 bucks for the Dad's to go down the slide with the boys. Ridiculous but they had fun.

Andrew starts Kindergarten

From August 2010

Andrew started Kindergarten. He seems to love it and likes his teacher. It is insanely (is that a word?) early in the morning. I drop him off about 7:05 or so. There are 2 kids in his class so hopefully they will be arranging soon. He has been doing good though. He gets right out of the car in car line and walks himself in. He looks so big doing that but he can find his way now all by himself....

Beach

We went to Ocean Isle on vacation this year. The weather was very nice. Not too hot most days. Andrew had a great time and learned to use the boogie board until he went under one time. Chloe hated it and would not stay on the beach for more than about 5 minutes. She "no like it" She"hot and no like sand"... ugghhh. But it was fun. The house we had was so much nicer this year than last year.

Chloe's First Day of Preschool :(

Chloe before school:

She did really good. They said she didn't really cry. She wanted to carry her bag but it was too heavy for her :) She is only going (2) mornings a week so I hope that she likes it. Hopefully she will find some friends. And then...... Chloe after school. She was soooo tired......

Random Pictures

I have been so slack about taking pictures lately.... Kids being silly as usual. Both are getting so big. 2 weeks from today Andrew Starts Kindergarten and Chloe starts Preschool next week. Time flies. Andrew is so NOT exicted about Kinder. Not sure what to do about that..... At least we get to go on vacation before I have to deal with that :)

Crazy kids

Don't pay attention to the muscic choice :)
