Busy Month

August was a busy month for us. Will is playing both soccer and baseball. He loves it but it leaves us with only 2 free nights a week and games both days of the weekend. Can I remind you that he is only 4? I am destined to be a "bleacher butt" mom. Max loves sports every bit as much. I can't imagine our schedules when both of them are playing.

Max is quite proud of his new "trick". He has been getting out of his crib. He has done it before, but now he is quite good at it and does it frequently. Time for the big boy bed. And the lock on the door.

Will begins a new year at Sunshine Preschool tomorrow. He is very excited to see all of his friends. Both of the boys will also be moving up a class at my work's child care center, so a lot of changes this week. I have not been too impressed with Max's teacher the last few months so I am hoping for a change in the positive direction.

A few weeks ago we went to Springfield, Ill to visit our friends, Michelle, Lamar, Cora, and George. Oh yes, and Cleo the horse (aka great dane). Max was not a fan of Miss Cleo when we arrived but is still talking about her now. I have no idea where his fear of dogs comes from. We had a great time. We sampled the local delicacies (a world famous horseshoe), saw a great concert (Brooks and Dunn and ZZ-Top-can't say I am a fan of the old men with beards!), went to the Illinois State Fair, and visited the City Museum in St. Louis. We were 10 pounds heavier and exhausted when we got home. We had a blast. Thanks, Villeres!

I'm not touching that

City Museum-St. Louis

I am amazed by their lack of fear-that thing was way up there. I couldn't do it. Poor Brian!
