Morning Fun

Saturdays are a great for family fun! Today we started off the day with a bike ride and visit to the park. It is fantastic that the twins are old enough to enjoy the playscape now.

Here is Zander mid-story-
And our sweetie-pie/linebacker
Zoe with her girlfriends- Emery and Charli!

Double the fun-

First Day of School

Today was Zander's first day of Kindergarten. He loved it!!! He especially liked Music class, thought Recess was short, and hopes to eat Cafeteria food soon.
Here he is "feinting" from being so excited about school-

Just arrived to Ms. Jeffrey's class-
Joining his table friends Cadence and Ella-
The bus welcoming committee-
Our big guy had a fun ride home-
And he was super excited to come home for a snack of "Monster" cookies!

15 months!

How time flies! Today is our first day to drop the morning nap, so we celebrated with a trip to Maudie's and to the park!


A swinging good time-



King of the mountain!

The Traveler

Zander had the time of his life flying solo to visit his Grandparents in El Paso. Thank you Nona and Papa Joe for your wonderful care! (Zander came home just in time to celebrate his Daddy's birthday-yay! :)
With Nona at the Dinosaur exhibit-one of the favorite times of his trip!
With Opa and "Gummy" Oma-

Here's Zander showing his Papa Joe how to "relax"-

Slip 'n Slide Bash

Fun times at the Ruiz back yard while we celebrated our friend Kristy's 40th!
Zander LOVED the water slide-

Even the babies got in on the action-


The play house was a huge hit with the little ones...
Maybe worth the investment to keep them in one spot for 5 minutes? Gotta love Costco!

Naughty Step

Twin entertainment for Zander during his discipline...not very effective :)
Little charmer-
Uh-oh...Zoe is trying to adopt Zander's buddy, "Jaguar". Time for a visit to the Zoo to find Jaguar's little sister.
Sweet and sassy- (note that she is practicing for her time on the "naughty" step)
