First Day of School

Jaden's first day of school was today and Jake's last day of school was today. Our boy has entered into the first grade, and Jake has entered into his Internship.

Jaden is in a first and second grade combo class, and he has Mrs. Garza as his teacher. By word of mouth, he got the best first grade teacher. Jaden woke us up and 6:00 am telling us that it's time to get ready for school. Well the bell rings at 8:30 so we had plenty of time to get ready. Someone was just a little anxious for school to start. I wonder how many more years until he doesn't want it to start. Jaden bought lunch and it was $2.25, and we gave him a $2.30. I asked him what he had for lunch, his relpy "A bean and cheese burrito, and they even give us money for it." He handed me a nickel which was the difference in the amount he gave them but Jaden's thinking that he pays and they give money back every time. I love this age. Recently he asked, "Mom do you and dad pick my girlfriends?"

He came home exhausted and took a nap on the couch.

CELEBRATE!!!!!! Good times come on!!!!

Okay, Jaden at 6 1/2 years old has tried roller skating for the first time at Roller City in Rancho Cucamonga. The first hour Jaden was falling alot and was getting really upset and was insisting that mommy puts on roller skates (I declined because I did not plan on roller skating and did not bring any socks), however, after the first hour he was getting the hang of it and was able to let go of the wall. He was even grooving to the music. As I was watching him it really took me back to my day when roller skating was IT and I would roller skate at SKATE JUNCTION. Oh ya, and during my day we skated to "Celebration", by Kool and the Gang.


















































Thank you Miles for inviting Jaden to your birthday party. Jaden had a really good time learning to roller skate and he can't wait to do it again.

Shoes and Vacuums

Currently Owen is into putting on everyone's shoes, and I got a great shot of him in his daddy's shoes. I'm sure one day he'll fit in them but as for now, it was great seeing him try to walk in a size 12 adult shoe when he is only in a size 8 toddler shoe. Also, Owen loves vacuums. And he can't just have one vacuum out, he has to have ALL three to play with at the same time. We hope this phase ends soon. There's nothing worse than having all 3 vacuums out with all the cords strung on the floor.

Upadate

I finally got the boys pictures professionally taken. We had a lot of good ones to choose from this time. Owen didn't want to hold still, but the photographer just snapped away.

Jaden shaving

Jaden was getting ready for church and we found him shaving with his plastic razor in the bathroom. He even filled up the sink with water and rinsed off his razor after each shaving cream stroke.
