Leaps and Bounds

Great picture of all 3 of my babies!


Noah's 1st day of 1st grade outside our house!

Outside his classroom- he looks so grown up!

Ethan learning how to ride his bike with training wheels:)     

The past couple of weeks have been crazy and it has hit me that my babies are growing by leaps and bounds!  Noah started 1st grade last week and just LOVES it! Mrs. Herman is a great teacher and Noah really likes her:) It is quite an adjustment to have him at school everyday so he sleeps very well at night...Noah's favorite part - he gets to play on the big kid playground!
Although Ethan misses his big brother everyday...he is truly enjoying being THE big brother with Olivia and spending some quality time with his grandparents.  Last week we practiced riding his bike with training wheels instead of his trike on our daily walks.  He is getting very good and rode over a mile last week with Mom and I.
Olivia is changing sooo much...in the past month she has become such a smiller...she even giggles now:) She loves laughing at her brothers and when daddy "eats" her neck.  She is grabbing at toys and loves her baby gym and sitting up in her bumbo watching her brothers.  
I went back to work two weeks ago:(  There were tears the first morning, but I am so blessed to have family around to watch them.  It has been busy, but much less stressful then in the past with out Student Council.  I did have lots of unpacking to do, I was thankful to have Carrie come and help me one day! I am soo lucky to have the schedule I have and be able to spend every other day with my babies:)
