I have definitely enjoyed having the kids home for the summer. I love, love, love summer because there's no schedule, no making lunches, and not so much running around. I also love, love, love school because a little bit more structure is always good, not having to break up so many fights throughout the day, and every now and then a little time to myself - if I can get Max to nap at the same time.
Cole was so excited the night before school he could hardly stand it. He has loved his teacher so far. In his class they are given a color to monitor their behavior for that day. Yellow= not so good, Green = good, and blue is Great. Last year he would get a blue every now and then so Tyler made a deal with him to give him a dollar for every day that he gets blue. Well, Cole's teacher is either really lenient or else he has just been a really good student. Last week he got blue four out of the five days. Hopefully it's the latter - but now I'm worried I will go broke by the end of the year!
Brady also loves going to school. He is in preK this year. He goes to the same school he went to last year so that has been good for just getting back into the routine and knowing what is expected of him and me. He has a wonderful teacher. It's still amazes me every year when my kids get back in school to see how much they are learning at such younger and younger ages. I'm quite sure by the time they make it to middle school, I will not be able to help them much with their homework.

You're boys are growing up so fast. By the way you look great in all your pictures below. I am very excited for school to start because it is a little overwhelming when I have an average of 8-10 kids at my house constantly. I hope to see you soon. Let me know when you're in town next.
Cute, cute, cute! So are you getting any naps in while they're gone? ;-) Let's plan another get-together soon!
