Fall!

Well I know it has been two months since a post and I apologize.  A lot has happen so I hope you are ready for this!

Braxton:
  • Had to get three stitches by his left eye because he fell off our bed and hit the side table. 
  • Got in trouble at school for the first time because his speech therapist asked him to be quiet and after her didn't she told him that if he didn't stop talking he wouldn't be able to go out and play.  Braxton told her "who cares" and continued to be loud.  He had to sit out for five minutes before playing.
  • Loves to be outside and play and be loud.
  • One activity he loves to do now is sing.  SING is more like it.  It is so cute.  He sings so many songs now.

Payton:
  • Loves school and did get in trouble once for playing with his friend Aidan in the bathroom instead of doing their business and getting out.
  • Played fall soccer and loved it.  He was a great goalie and scored a goal at his last game.
  • Is writing his name and all of his letters. 
  • His favorite thing is singing his RED song.  They are learning to spell colors and he loves to sing R-E-D RED song.
  • He is still shy when we see his classmates at the store and will not say hi.

 Our beloved poodle Lily passed away on Monday and it was a tough night for the boys.  We explained to them that Lily had passed away and that she went to heaven.  Braxton was ok with it but made sure to tell us that he was very sad that Lily was gone.  Payton took it harder but I believe it was because he understood it more.  He cried and asked when Lily was coming back when we told him never he got more upset until he asked if Lily was with Great Grandpa.  The only other person that has passed in his life that he can remember is Great Grandpa VL.  Once we told him that yest Great Grandpa and Lily were together and playing ball then we was better.  They are still sad but it is getting better.

Both of the boys are growing up and Jeff and I love to see them learn new things.  I will post recent pictures this weekend. 

Thank you for stopping by.
