The kiddos start their new school year on Monday. Abs is super excited about her new class and is always asking when her new school starts. I will be doing the next post on their gifts that they will give their new classmates.
Some of the big, BIG news going on is that we are on our last box of diapers! Yep, Brayden is finally potty trained. Well, he still needs a little help, but the past two days he has wore only big-boy panties to school. (When you have a big sister, you wear panties … ) We are all so excited about his new milestone!
A quick update on the Oklahoma fires that came through a couple of weeks ago. We were about 30 miles from one of the fires, so we were not in immediate danger. The craziest thing was that we had ashes falling at our house – YES, the ashes traveled over 30 miles to get here! Our families were at much greater risk, with the fires miles from their homes. Although nobody we know directly loss their homes, Brian’s childhood home did burn to the ground. His mom had moved out over a year ago, but it was very sad to drive by there and only see the front stairs standing. Words cannot express the magnitude of devastation that is in the area. It is something I have never seen before and hope to never experience again.
I will close with a few pictures of the kiddos – it is crazy to see how much they are growing!
