An Eventful Weekend!

We were quite busy this weekend! Friday, Wesley went to school and swimming lessons. Saturday we drove down to San Jose where we attended my Aunt Jill's surprise 60th birthday party. Sunday we went to the air show at Travis where we met up with my cousin Kim and husband Herb and their son, and, Wesley's little buddy Jagger. After the air show we feasted at the Olive Garden for dinner. (yum) And today, Monday, we drove down to Benicia to Lake Herman. Wesley and Jimmie rode the lake trail on bikes and Bryan and I walked it. They ended up doing the full ride, 5 miles and Bryan and I walked about 3.5 of the 5. It was just too hot for us! =)

Back To School!

Well summer is over, at least, according to the Travis Unified School district! Wesley started his pre-kindergarten year this past Monday. He has adjusted fine this year since he is going to the same preschool and he already knew his teachers from their occasional subbing last year. He will now be sharing his classroom with 19 other children instead of 9. He is happy to be back and excited to see all of his friends he met last year!

Teether

Bryan is rapidly getting all of his teeth. In the past month he has been cutting 4 teeth at one time, including two lower molars and two upper canines.

They are all on their way out right now. I was trying to get a good shot of him yesterday in the yard for his ZED cards and got this funny shot of him in the middle of a shreak. You can really see his lower molars coming in!

LEAP FROG!!!

We're so excited right now! Wesley did a box cover for Leap Frog Toys last year, I think it was in October. We've been searching for the toys and haven't been able to find it for months. I was strolling through Target this evening and there it was right on the shelf! Three sides of the box he is on...I brought it home and he said "OH MY GOD!" He was very happy to see it and ran to our neighbors house to show himself off. LOL He is also on the Leap Frog site because his face is inside the phone:

FASHION SHOW PHOTOS

We were sent some photos of Wesley at the fashion show he just did in Southern California...wanted to put them up!

Hooray for Hollywood!

Our hotel

We took a road trip. A very quick one indeed. My little man did his first runway fashion show in Hollywood. We left on Friday to drive down and came back up on Saturday afternoon when the show was over. Our proud grandma came along with us for our mini-trip.
Wesley took the stage 3 times and sported outfits from 3 different designers. I was very proud of him that he came out of his shell and held it together for the show. It was a lot of driving and I was happy that both boys did so well in the car as well!

Look mom...no training wheels!

Wesley has been asking us for about 3 weeks now to remove his training wheels. Jimmie has been too nervous to remove them. Tonight I asked Wesley if he was ready and I went ahead and padded him up and took the training wheels off. He took off up the block and never turned back. LOL He rode his bike without the trainers on for about an hour tonight and did surprisingly very well. He was so cute with a little smirk on his face the entire time. It was a proud mommy moment!
