Evening at the Park

These are photos of the kids at their favorite park in Odessa. It has equipment for little ones and older ones plus a basketball court, walking path, and picnic tables. We had been working most of the day on the house (trying to get it ready to put up for sale) and decided we needed to take the kids out and have some fun. We picked up some awesome subs from the new Capsula's, which is just a walk from our house, and had a picnic dinner at the park. Zachary thought this was really cool :o). We spent quite a bit of time there playing and having fun. One of the best parts (for mommy and daddy anyway) was that all the fresh air made for tired children who slept all night!

By the way, Nolan is officially a walker. He doesn't even like to hold anyones' hands when he is toddling around! The only time he really crawls now is when he wants to tear around the house like a speed demon :o). He is really proud of himself and Mommy, Daddy, and Zachary are also very proud of him. He is really getting quite a personality.

Zachary is now getting to be so independent! He wants to do everything for himself. One morning he even got up and made himself waffles for breakfast before Mommy even got out of bed. Still not sure how I feel about that but he knows how to be safe and when to ask for help which is always a good thing.

Until next time! :o)

Zachary's 4th Birthday

Zachary's 4th Birthday

Click on Zachary's picture to view pictures from Zachary's 4th birthday. Yes, I know this was more than 6 months ago but 6 months ago I didn't have this website running :o).

Zachary had a great 4th birthday. One of his favorite gifts was the pair roller blades that Brian and I got him (and all the appropriate safety gear). Check out the photos of him posing in his blades and pads, very cool.

He loved all of his gifts! We thank everyone who came out to help celebrate this occasion. I can't believe that in 3 months he will be turning 5. He won't be starting Kindergarten this year (the cut off is August 30th) but he will be going to preschool/daycare full time starting in August.

They grow up so fast!

Check back here for more postings of photos from the past year. Hopefully I will be caught up by the end of the month :o).
