Jillian's First Day of Preschool!

Jillian was so excited to start Preschool. She loves doing projects, playing with friends and being independent. I've been dreading her starting because I'd miss her so much, but I also knew she was SO ready. She was so cute in her little apple dress and had so much fun. She didn't cry at all, but was a little nervous being left there. I told her I'd be back soon and she did great. I swear it'll break my heart when Maddie starts. Why does the time have to go so fast?

Madelyn's driving already!

Maddie loves to play outside. Whenever she gets really grumpy and I don't know what's wrong I send her outside. She gets so excited and will stay out there forever. Her favorite thing is to drive her car. She zooms around in it and has the best time.

Jillian's First Haircut!

Jillian got a haircut today and was so good! She held still and was so quiet. She loves it and Mom's still adjusting to her little girl growing up so fast. Isn't she a cutie?

The Oakland Raiders

My little sister Sara's boyfriend plays for the Raiders. We went to the friends and family day to support him. There are some crazy Raider fans and when Jillian saw these two she ran straight to them. She loved the characters at Disneyland so she thought these were just as cool! Caden was a little hesitant, but went along to make sure his sister was ok. I figured since Jillian wanted to pose for a picture that I'd put Maddie in there too. She was fine until she turned around and realized who was holding her. She was so terrified!

Here's Todd holding Cooper after his game last weekend. Isn't Cooper the cutest! I love that little guy. Sara's so good and takes him to all the home games. Cooper loves supporting his daddy and Todd gets so excited to see him after the games.

Caden the First Grader!

Caden started First Grade this month and is loving every minute. He is such a big boy and I'm sad to see him growing up so fast. Last week when I was dropping him off I said, "Caden, I wish you didn't have to go to school so you could stay home with me." He looked at me puzzled and said, "Don't you want me to learn?" I guess I hadn't thought of that!

We finally did it!

It seems like we're the last family on the planet to make a blog. This really surprises me because I'm usually more on top of things. I've been trying to decide if I should make a blog for quite some time now and finally decided to go for it. I love reading up on what friends and family are doing so I thought you might want to do the same. I just can't guarantee that I'll be able to update as often as I'd like. I am a very beginner blogger and have no idea what I'm doing so any advice would be appreciated!
