I had to include some of the latest skateboard pics
The ramp he is sitting on and the one in the background on the right he actually goes down. It scared me to death the first time I saw it. Actually it scares me every time he goes down it!! This was taken at the skatepark at our church.
He had to wear his new skateboard helmet into the restaurant. We did get him to take it off while he ate though.
As I am sitting here it is a wonderful 55 degree's outside. Oh how I love the fall. I seriously think there is nothing better than the cool mornings and perfect afternoons. I love to sit outside in the back yard and watch Eli playing in the sandbox. Sitting on the back porch in the afternoons and reading a great book while the kids jump on the trampoline. I know it is not really a true fall like up north or anything but for those of us in the south it is considered fall!! I even broke out a mug of steaming hot chocolate this morning. (partly because I'm trying to fight a cold and the hot liquid feels good on my throat)
The girls are starting girl scouts today. I would be the first to say I never planned on them doing girl scouts. I just don't see myself as a girl scout mom, but they really wanted to do it and I thought why not. I do know for sure that I can't be the cookie mom though. We would go through everyone of those boxes before we knew it!!
The girls are doing great in school, Katy is really doing well with her reading this year. I guess she is just ready now because she picked it right up and I have been so proud of her. Faith really excels at school and loves the challenge of learning. She loves to write stories and read. My favorite thing about the girls being in school is when they come home and Eli runs up to them and hugs them while their walking home. The other day Eli told Katy "I really missed you while you were at school Katy" It was precious. I also really love my time with just him for the day. He cracks me up, the sense of humor that he has as a two year old is amazing!!
My sister and her family will be here next week and we are all so excited to see everyone. I have not met my newest nephew Phillip so we can't wait to see him.
