THIRD ONE'S A CHARM

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! Yea!!! they are all 3 in. Sophie started kindergarten this year and Spence is in 2nd and Maddie in 3rd. They are all loving it! And Mom.....she loves it most! You'll notice that we don't have a picture of Maddie in her desk. She has officially moved into the "stay away parents" stage. Every day she gets dropped off at her side of the school, Sophie tells her "bye Maddie. I love you!" and we are lucky if we get a goodbye....when I asked her about it she said very bluntly " uhhh, it's embarassing...I am in front" Oh how the times change.

YIKES-the dad is the MONSTER

In Dan's desire to change his eating and drinking habits he began a growing love for the low carb monster. Though he has dropped over 60 pounds, which is great-- at times I think he may have a sickness....and now he has involved the children. He has saved nearly every empty can over the last 6 months and now is in the process of building a grandfather clock out the empties with the kids.
