Summer has been a whirlwind and it's almost Jake's Birthday! Yeah!

Hey there everyone;

It's been a crazy busy summer with everything happening all at once! I've really got my eyes set on the countdown to back to school now though!!! I'm nervously looking forward to the new adventure our family will be going on this year with the boys in their new school. I'm really hoping that it'll be a great change for us and the boys will really enjoy it! Of course, I have my Mommy worries like any other Mommy about them meeting new friends and such...I am a little nervous about them not being in a Christian school anymore, but Cathe reassures me that this school is great too, so I'm counting on that recommendation! The boys are so excited, because we went back to school shopping and I let them pick all brand new everythings...pencils and markers and erasers and sharpeners and backpacks and and and and.....can you say guilt shopping? LOL

Jacob is doing his countdown to his birthday party right now! He has one celebration this weekend with Todd's family, and then his real birthday on the 29th with my family (and celebrating Dad's b'day too!) and then his friend's party on the 30th. He gives me the cutest little countdown every single morning when he wakes up! He's totally excited! He also lost another tooth the other day too...he's growing up faster than I can handle...he didn't stay little like Joshua did...Josh was still little at 5, not Jake man...he's more like he's 10 already! He is so funny....he really thinks he's much older than he really is!

We are also taking the boys on a real vacation this weekend too....our vacation plans kept getting screwed up this year for one reason or another, so we decided to pack them up and take them to Toronto to celebrate going back to school/end of summer. We're really excited about it, I think the boys will have a blast....we're even going to take them on the subway...I know, sounds lame to you and I, but I bet the boys go nuts over it! LOL

Luke is doing well...he's got a terrible summer cold right now, but on the bright side, he's walking a little bit more each day....still not walking solid...he looks more like a drunken sailor, but it sure is cute!

Hope everyone enjoys the remainder of their summer and I'll post some new pics of the boys soon!
