Our Girl Lucy!!

I caught Nathan feeding our dog Lucy (Lucy thinks she is the size of a chihuahua) one piece of dog food after another. I was able to watch them for quite a while without them noticing. It was so funny! He said that Lucy liked her food softened before she ate it, so he would dip it in the water and then set it on the floor or her paw for her to eat. She sat there and let him do that for a while. Of course a dog that big needs soft food, I should have known that!!

Soccer Mom, I am not!!

On September 6th, Nathan started his first season of soccer (flower picking and jungle gyming). For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to help coach. I definitely was wrong about it being a good idea. Not only do I have to try and teach the other kids how to play soccer, and be good sports, I have to try to collect my son from the toys that he would rather play on than learn soccer. It is quite a challenge I am sure I won't take on again!

However, it is fun to watch the kids run all over the place with the ball! I really wanted Nathan to love soccer (as opposed to football, which is what his dad hopes for), but it looks like this year he is all about the jungle gym!! Oh well, maybe soccer is just not his thing.

Back to School!!

I know I am a month behind on posting, but I still thought these pictures were so cute that I couldn't go without posting them. Nathan went back to pre-school on September 3rd. He is doing well and making friends. I have lately had those moments were all of the sudden I realize my baby is growing up. He says smart, funny things, his clothes aren't fitting, and he can do so much! I am proud of Nathan and hope he has a great year at school!





A little sleepy, we get Nathan ready for his first day!!
