Could I have picked a better time?
So, it was 5:30, dinner was in the oven, Chloe missed her late afternoon nap, Logan was wired and I decided since Seth just walked in the door I'd take pictures of the kids. Yeah right. Chloe cried, Logan kept running away and welp, we got a few good shots but not what I wanted. We still don't have a cute one of them together. A work in progress I guess. My favorite one is of Logan with his back to me and his shirt up. I was sitting on the grass frustrated because Chloe was crying and Logan just ran away again. I heard him say, "Mom, picture of me" and I turned and that is what I got. What a character that boy is. He brought us all laughs (except Chloe of course, who was still crying) and made me realize that the pictures that tell a story are the best ones to have, even if it is his backside!

Joy School Daddy Night!
So for Joy School we had a Daddy Night so the dads could see just how smart their kids really are! We cooked out and then did a SHORT program with the kids. They all said the pledge, did their name song and each group did a small song. I was so proud of Logan! Generally, he is terrified of audiences and I was expecting a meltdown. However, he got up, sang the song, did all the actions and clapped for himself at the end! He even did the Hokey Pokey with the older group! He may not have his colors down but this kid is coming out of his stage fright! Woohoo!

Seth's New Ride
So, Seth is trying out a scooter he got from his cousin. He filled it up for $2.50 and will get 100 miles to the gallon. Worth it? Yeah baby! Anyway, he's had it parked in the garage since August and has been saying all week he was going to ride it to school. Welp, today was the day. I go walking in the morning with some girls and as they were approaching with their strollers, he was trying to leave. His comment, "Shoot, I gotta go before they see me!" Too bad honey, they saw you and one even asked who the stud on the bike was! ;) He obviously won't ride in the winter so we'll see how long it lasts! This is probably as close to a Harley as he'll ever get!

Livin' the Dream
So, lately I've heard Seth tell friend on the phone when asked how things are say, "Oh, you know, just livin' the dream." Now, I'm sure it is meant sarcastically but after giving it some thought (I know, I'm way too analytical) I decided that we are livin' our dream. Sure, life is crazy busy and even hard some times but where else would we rather be? Thanks honey for the insight!
Okay, so we've been trying to cram some time at the park in because I know that any day it is going to be cold and windy and here comes fall and winter! We keep having really nice days which are great to be outside! Woohoo! The kids are doing so good. Logan is talking up a storm and his new thing is to ask why! We have some really LONG days but he is so much fun! Chloe is getting braver and braver and is now walking behind her little walker cart thing. She goes pretty fast too. It won't be long!
Seth's days stay pretty packed. Between patients, research, classes and setting up externships he stays pretty busy. Not too busy however to take an all guys backpacking/camping trip this weekend though! Stinker! He deserves the break. He works so hard for us and I know that he'd take us all if he could (or at least I hope he would)!
I keep taking on more projects as usual and am staying way super busy. I love doing all the things I do and keep finding ways to do more things! I love learning new stuff and its been great! I'm trying to get back on an exercise routine thanks to some motivating friends! We'll see how long it lasts!
Overall, we are doing great. We are happy, healthy, in school, have two way super cool great adorable kids, and are seriously, just livin' the dream!
