It's Game Day

It is officially my favorite time of the year!! It's time for college football!! I am watching ESPN's Game Day as I type this!! The only sad thing about today is that the Razorback game is not televised!! I am eager for this season!! It is a season where you have no clue what to expect!! I am very excited about Coach Petrino. Although I am not expecting the season to beat all season, I am excited to see how the game is changed up!! Will we throw the ball this year instead of running the ball? I have to admit that I am already having McFadden and Jones withdraws!! There is only one more thing to say, WOOOOOOO PIG SOOOOOOOIE!! GO HOGS!!!!

Landon is 19 months old!!

Our little man is 19 months old today!! Here are a few pictures of his milestones for your entertainment!

Yes, he is starting to stand on his own now!!

He loves to knock on the door!!



He loves giving Landon kisses!!

(Landon Kisses = Landon leaning his forehead to your forehead and saying aaawww!!!)


He is starting to become a daddy's boy!!


And Yes, he is starting to walk!! ALLELUIA!! ALLELUIA!!

What a roller coaster ride these last 7 months have been!! But we are beyond excited that he is starting to walk. He isn't all the way there yet but we are at least mobile on two legs now!! And yes, we are TRYING to take the bink away!! I know we are bad parents for letting him have it this long but we have had lots of bigger battles to tackle so the bink is minor to us right now. And he also chipped a top front tooth. If he had that bink in his mouth he may still have a normal tooth. It is actually really cute when he smiles!! It makes him look ALL BOY!! No need to worry, we called the dentist and they said as long as it doesn't turn colors then it isn't a big deal!! I think the chipped tooth just fits his personality!!!

Where did the summer go?

Wow, it has been a crazy, busy summer!! I cannot believe that it is basically over with!! Tyler started school last Thursday. She loves her teacher and I cannot believe she is in kindergarten!! Here are some pictures from her Open House and the 1st Day of School.

Landon will be 19 months old next week!! No, he STILL is not walking but he is getting there!! He is starting Physical Therapy at Children's Mercy next week. His pediatrician is really worried about his legs turning out too far. His personality has really been coming out this past week!! Man, does he ever know what he wants. Last night he was holding my hand while walking and decided that he wanted to go to the park across the street from our house. We went to the park and then he went straight to the swings. He is getting really good at walking for longer distances while holding our hands. I have been trying to snap a picture of him trying to walk but he sits down every time he sees the camera!! (Ok, not the best of pics of Landon, but he will not look at the camera for me these days!!)

Last Wednesday, Tyler's last day of summer, we took Tyler to the state fair. It was a hot day and we knew that Landon would be miserable so he went to the CDC. Tyler really enjoyed spending the time with just mommy and daddy!! David and I had never been to a state fair before, just the county fairs!! We had a great time but could not believe how much everything costs. Seriously, $5 for a lemonade. After we made the rounds at the fair, we went to Sonic and took advantage of Happy Hour!!



Tyler loved the horses!!!!!!!!

David and I are just counting down the days to the start of college football!! Although we are not ready for the cold temperatures that follow!! David has moved to a new area in his squadron and works really weird shifts these days. He works every other weekend but the weekends he has off, he has a 3 day weekend. I am not too sure if I like it or not. David seems to like the new schedule except for the 12 hour shifts!! I start back to school on Tuesday!! I am not sure if I am ready to go back or not!! I guess it is time to get back on a schedule!!

We hope everyone has a great school year!!!
