big boy update!

preston had his one year check up...he is 31 1/2 inches tall (90th percentile) and 23lbs 6oz (60th percentile). he got two shots which he took very well. he goes back in in three months for another well child check up, but we will all be going in sometime next month for the flu shot :(

pop's party!

yey for cake!

today we finally had cake and opened gifts. uncle darin came over to join us. that was great! preston liked uncle darin's gift the best! an elmo book that plays music. two of preston's favorite things...elmo and music. :)

to pooped to celebrate...

preston had a very big day today. to celebrate his turning one grandpa, preston, eagan and i went to burger king for breakfast. then the boys and i went about our normal daily stuff waiting for ryan to get home from school. once he did we went out for pizza and then to the water park. we all had a blast! (i forgot my camera...go figure!) then on the way home preston fell asleep. sooooo....tomorrow when ryan gets home from school we will start part two of preston's birthday celebrations. the best part in my opinion, gifts and cake. :) so i'll try to post some cake pictures tomorrow night.

stuff 'n stuff.

there has been alot going on, i just haven't had the time to write. saturday night eagan spent the night at nana's. he had a blast! i slept with the phone...just in case. :) it was his first time away over night. i'm glad he had such a good time. i took the boys to the mall to look for some boots. (for me) i didn't have any luck but the boys had a great time driving the trucks. i did find some super cute boots at kohls! we went pumpkin hunting and found a few that we liked at menards. the boys each have their pumpkins. preston's has a few bite marks in it. lol! we have been taking a walk almost every night for the longest time and i swear that every night it gets more and more beautiful with the changing colors. the red tree is my favorite. i walk extra far just to see it. something about it makes it totally worth the few extra steps. well have a good night...i'm up waiting for ryan to get home. hopefully it wont be much longer...i'm getting sleepy! oh yeah and one last thing...preston has been sleeping in his crib for almost a week now! he is doing great with it. only three more days till he's one. i just can't believe it.

a few random photos.

just a few random pictures from the past two days. :)

preston's a pro at using a spoon!

so i guess all i had to do to fix the computer was to restart it. :) yey! yesterday preston had his first experience with using a spoon. he started it out great and then...well you can see the end result! just another day of learning. :) we made a fort and spent alot of time playing in there. eagan liked to read books and preston found great humor in sticking his hand under the blanket and waving. he's so funny. anyway, i have to clean the house today. i'll post more soon! :)
