Animals make me laugh

We put up the Halloween decorations and I thought it was cute that Shadow the 'black cat' liked the spider hanging above our table so much!

Gotta love the spunk of a kitten! Scaring a 75 pound Boxer away from his own food bowl!
And climbing right in...

I love Jake's look here: "A little help please!"

The boys LOVE Shadow!

Balloon Fest Plano 2010

Tom was out of town but I braved waking the boys up early and taking them down the Balloon Festival because they LOVE hot air balloons!

We watched the balloon glow first.

This was what Mommy would have liked to have been doing!

I sware they both make the goofiest faces whenever I ask them to pose for pics!

They both really liked the lady bug balloon

Big day

Zac lost his first tooth tonight! Funny story: He was eating an ice cream bar and didn't want any more cuz it was hurting his loose tooth. I told him to give it Daddy and checked out his tooth. He didn't want to try and pull it. He wanted to wait and just let it fall out while he slept! Ha ha ha! I suggested that he take another bite of the ice cream so he went over and asked Daddy for one more bite. He came back over to me chatting away and I heard Tom groan. He had taken another bite of the ice cream bar after Zac and bit down on his lost tooth which had come out in the ice cream! Zac didn't even know he had lost it!

He's pretty excited!
And we got a new addition to the family. We adopted a three month old kitten from Petsmart! Zac named him Shadow and I think the boys actually tired the kitten out playing!

Tyler's first day of Preschool

Tyler has been anxiously awaiting this day for two weeks now since he watched Zac go to school. Finally it was HIS first day of school!

For a comparison, here was Zac on his first day of preschool in 2007!

Both of my boys going to school!

Standing beside his cubby in the Minnows class!

Holding the fish with his picture on it!

Visit to Fire Safety Town

Zac had school so Grandma, Grandpa and I took Tyler to a nearby Fire Safety town. He LOVES fire trucks and ambulences.

He got to sit inside a truck

He saw a stuffed dalmation while we were walking around the little safety town
Then he got to meet the real Sparky!
