Reagan is loving preschool. She had her first field trip last week to the Alachua Pumpkin Patch. They also had some firefighters come visit their school and even had a visit from Albert & Alberta for Gator Day. She is making some new friends, although she hasn't told me the names of any of them.
Tristan is growing like a weed. He is one wild little boy. In the last 2 weeks, he has busted his lip open twice, scored multiple random bruises, and today walked in front of the swing and got whacked in the head. I guess boys will be boys...but man am I having a time keeping up with him. Overnight, his language has developed. He can sign for a few things and can say: chicken, hot dog, PawPaw, Dada, Momma, don't touch, sister, hot, dog, cat, fish, please, no, Nana, Opa, Oliver to name a few. I love that he is FINALLY starting to talk. I think it's cute that he's also learned how to "pound it" and give hi-5s.
It's amazing to me how different my children are...even though I know that it's normal. When Reagan was this age, she would sit for hours playing by herself, reading books, doing puzzles, whatever....and she could have a conversation with you. She could even tell you, "I'm 18 months!" Craziness!
My kids are awesome! I just love them....especially when they dance and sing (with their microphones) in the living room. I'm just so thankful that God has blessed me and Kris with such beautiful babies.
We took Tristan to Sea World a couple weeks ago for the first time. He absolutely loved it. I am waiting to post pictures though until I get the ones my friend, Shannon took....her's were better than mine I'm sure. My grandmother got us season passes for Christmas and we got to use them early so that we could enjoy the fall festivities.
Kris is halfway through the fall semester. So far, he is doing really well. He still has a few pre-reqs for engineering to take before he transfers to a university, so hopefully he'll be ready to apply for next fall. He would love to go to UF, but will apply to USF and UCF too.
This past weekend was very relaxing. We actually got to spend some quality time together as a family. We went to 2 pumpkin patches and took pictures of the kids in their Gator gear and costumes. Nana made Tristan a T-Rex costume and bought Reagan a butterfly costume that she wanted. Of course, they were both too excited about the pumpkins to stand still for pictures. Tristan even started saying, "pumpkin!" We're going to visit another pumpkin patch on Saturday with my dad and Suzanne, so maybe we'll get some good pictures then.
Well, I enjoyed updating my post. I hope you enjoyed it too. :o)
I enjoyed the update! I can't wait to hear Tristan talking! :)
