Vision Testing!

Well, to add to an already long day yesterday, after picking Noah up for school I had to take him to get a vision test. He had failed his vision test at school so I had to follow up with taking him to the eye doctor. Noah did amazingly well for a 5 year old the dr. told me. They had to dialated his eyes, which he didn't like to much after the fact, but we found out that Noah is starting to become farsighted. He has a slight prescription right now, but we decided to wait till next year to see if it gets any worse or better. You just never know with kids. Here is Tristan and Noah strutting the sunglasses he had to wear after getting his eyes dialated.

Isn't this to funny!!

May I help you!?!

My has this obsession with sticking stickers on Tristans forehead! What is up with that??

Happy 100th day party!

Every year Noah's classroom celebrates the 100th day of school with a party to celebrate 100 days of being in school! He had a lot of fune, especially because he didn't have his little sister hanging over his shoulder :) (She was in her own class) We had a lot of fun! Here are some neat pictures. They did some neat project stations. They strung 100 fruit loops on a string, stamp 100 stamps, were able to count out 100 snacks, make a sticker hat with the letter 100 and place 100 stickers around it, and draw a picture of what they would buy with 100 dollars. (Noah said he would buy a boat and a dollar) All these stations were to help them count to 100. 10 stamps in 10 different shapes, counting 10 pieces of each snack with 10 different snacks. Its a great way to help them learn to count. We have decided Noah will attend Athena Montessori one more year, Maya and Noah will share a class together, I am very excited !!!! The kids even counted to 50 in french and then the other 50 in english!!!

Cash 4 gold!

So during the football game we saw multiple ads for Cash 4 gold. You can send in any gold, silver, or platinum. So Robb decided to call in get a package to send in some stuff. We decided to see who would get more money, him or myself. Well, he sent his off and got $14 dollars. I was sure that the stuff i sent in would produce a bigger lump some of money in my pocket. So the wait was on and the day came on saturday. I opened up the envelope with much anticipation of saying haha i got more. NOPE I got a measley $7.75! Dang!

Happy 2 Months!!


Happy 2 months to Tristan! Yup thats right, already 2 months old. Next thing i know he is going to be crawling!!! He has definetly changed in the last 2 months, for sure! We went to the dr. today and he weighs 14lbs 11oz. YuP! and he is already 24 3/4 inches long, in 95% for height and weight! We got him a bumbo yesterday and he can sit in it for about 10 min before his head starts to get heavy, oh ya, his head is in the 95% as well. Haha. He is definetly changing like i said before. He is cooing and try to communicate with us! The dr. said that he might have a lazy eye that he will recheck in 2 months, Ive never noticed that, and also has a bulging head on one side. So our homework is to make him lay on the other side of his head so he doesn't end up having to wear a helmet.
