Andons first day of K4 (8/31/11). As he walked to the bus he was a little nervous. Once he got on the bus he saw a older kid he knew from his previous school. He ran on all excited. At this point I was sooo teary. He drove off and I cried. Then we had to laugh because we realized I was still holding his lunch box. I guess I was a little nervous. Good thing we were meeting him at school to make sure everything went ok. He seemed pretty excited. I hope he's not to embarrassed I made him heart shaped pb and j sandwhiches. He loves the shapes! Today was tacos/burittos and he doesn't do Mexican ;o). We will follow up with how his first day went!!! I can't wait to hear myself!!!

Weston has been saying a few words. He says birdie and baby very clear. He tries to say fishy but it comes out a little different but sooo cute. Today we are going to try to start giving Weston only one nap. He forgot what night time is for the past few months. He's up 4-6 times a night so hopefully this will help it. We go Monday for his ear tubes so Im not looking forward to that but it's non-invasive and it should help him alot. Poor munchkin has had 6 ear infections. Other than that he's been his usual happy self. Making everyone smile from ear to ear. He is such a climber!!!! He goes up the steps on the jungle gym and goes down the smaller slide face first. What a boy! He's into bobbin everyone on the head lately. It's hard not to laugh.
Going to go uniform shopping for Andong this afternoon. I can't believe what a big boy he is. I called the bus schedule today to see when he would be dropped of and picked up. I just want to cry everythimg I think about it. He's growing up so fast! I'm more worried about him....haha. He's so excited! Today he gets to dress up as a knight at school and all the girls are pricesses. They made a huge castle out of cardboard. He was so excited about that. He also thought he was so cool bringing his stuffed angry bird to school to sleep with. All the kids always run to him to see what he brings. K4 doesn't allow that so I hope he adjusts to that.
We can't belive how fast the boys are growing up. Its so fun yet it's so sad. I wish they could stay little forever. Well Wes could get out of diapers and then stop growing ;o)

Andons favorite part of the trip was when Cindy Bear delivered him milk and cookies. He was so excited! My favorite part was taking him to the dance at night. He was dancing to his favorite song Thriller and Yogi Bear showed up to dance with the kids. Andon did the Charlie Brown and I couldn't believe he knew it! He then went on to do the Cupid Shuffle and that was quite hilarious. He was the opposite as everyone else. As we were on our way to tuck Yogi in bear and read him a book he said....mama, you know how I knew all those dance moves? I watched everyones feet. We had a fun time! We can't wait to go back during Halloween time!! I wonder what the boys will want to be for Halloween. I'm sure Andon will help pick out a costume for his brother.

Weston update
Weston is turning into a toddler way to fast. He learned how to climb last week. I was doing the dishes and I turned around and he was on the kitchen table within seconds. We can't take our eyes off him for a second. He's always trying to climb up by his brother and do whatver he's doing. It's too cute. They are really starting to play with eachother more now that Weston is so mobile. He's our little monkey. He loves to climb allover the jungle gym we just built. He even goes down the slide head first. Everynight we play outside he needs a bath because he's covered in dirt head to toe. ;o)
We are going to paint a sports theme in his room soon (either baseball of football or something). He's getting a big boys room now. All the animals prints are gone. He's still in a crib yet and luckily he hasn't figured out how to crawl out of that. Andon wants bunk beds soooo bad so we might get them one once Weston can go in a big boy bed.
Weston has been learning where all his body parts are. He lifts up his shirt and says beelllbeee. He points to his ear, eye and nose. Sometimes his nose is his ear though ;o) He's trying so hard to talk. At times he sounds like he can say birdie and book. Two of his favorites!!! When he goes to grandmas they watch the bird feeder out the window and he points and says birdie. He loves to go downstairs and feed the fish with grandpa (both him and his brother love doing that). He's been making this growling sound like a bear and it's super cute. Weston is such a cheerful boy!! He lights up the room and can make you smile at any point. We have two amazing boys that make our families so happy.
Weston will be getting ear tubes in a few weeks. We decided it's time since he's had 6 ear infections so far. The poor munchkin is so miserable when he has them. He has the whole house up all night for days. We hope the tubes will resolve the problem for him. It's hard seeing them sick.
We are going camping at yogi bear park and it will be Westons first time. We are so exicted to go! It's funny because our neice, nephew and Andon named all the kids a few years ago. AJ is Yogi Bear, Alexa is Cindy Bear, Andon is Boo Boo bear. Then weston came along and they were out of bears so he's Ranger Smith. They all have stuffed animals of each.
Weston absolutely loves vegetables (green beans are his favorite). We have a hard time getting him to eat meat. His brother is the opposite and loves the meat and doesn't care for vegetables. Usually when Andon is done eating then Weston crawls up on his chair and finishes Andons plate. We tease him that his little brother is going to be his big brother soon. Weston is starting to lose the baby fat look and really thin out. He still has his thighs ;o). He is extrememly muscular though. He's a little brickhouse!!

Andon update
Andon is one smart little guy. The other morning he came up to me and said, Mama, remember that mummy exhibit at the museum they showed on TV. Can we go? He was sad they closed. He then went on to say...Do you know how mummys are made? Scientists wrap skeletons in toliet paper. He is such a comedian.
He usually crawls out of bed 5-6 times a night and runs in the livingroom. When he sees were about to tell him to get back to bed he says he's just out to give hugs and kisses. Well how can we refuse those. Last night he came out and said......Mama, when dogs bark during storms that means they are trying to communicate right? He has such a vocabulary!!! He is super excited about kindergarten. I'm pretty nervous about him taking the bus but he is so excited. They will drop him off and pick him up at our driveway. His first day we are going to let him ride the bus and meet him at school so he gets the swing of it (and I think to make sure I'm ok with it...hahaha).
The other day I was going to get a spray tan after work. Andon came downstairs when I was working and asked if he could go along. Before I could answer he says......if the guy asks how old I am just tell him I'm 18. Of course I let him go with me after that. How could I say no. He's such a boy yet he has a soft side to him. One day he was hanging out at his grandmas with his cousins. We had somewhere to go so we dropped Weston off on our way. When I walked in Andon just starred at me and was smiling. I walked over by him and he hugged me and touched my shirt saying...I really like your shirt and I love your lipstick. All these little things make it so hard to see him grow up. He's an amazing little boy.
We went to the mall the other day and Andon wanted to adopt a butterfly so bad. So we did, we check on them everyday. I think one caterpillar is dead but Andon keeps saying he's sleeping. I sure hope he is. He named them after his cousins Alexa and Big AJ ;o) We will have to bring these little suckers camping at Yogi Bear this weekend because they will be ready to go in their cage now and turn in to a cacoon. At least this is alot easier than adopting a cat like he originally wanted ;o)
