From our house to yours...

.I.LOVE.THEM.

Trevor {1yr}

Trevor.. well this little guy is 1.. geesh where did the year go.. oh ya.. move.. move again.. man we are never moving again!  Anyway.. off my move rant.. Trevor.. he is a little stink.. falling right into all the awesome chase around age appropriate behaviors.. getting into all the things he shouldn't!!!  He will sit wait.. see if you notice him and when you do.. BOOK IT for whatever he shouldn't be touching!  The boys have a lot of fun playing with him.. Garrett is a great baby chaser.. and Drew is already teaching him all about football.. when Drew isn't home Trevor holds his little football tight and walks {yes walking.. hee hee} all around with it.. he even gives it a throw here and there {well behind his back}.. when Drew is home he tries to chase Drew around while Drew does his little football {constant motion running all over the house.. crazyness} thing that he does!

Trevor is doing a great job eating.. and I have been really trying to get him on table food more than anything.. I am still a bit of a slacker in this area, but we are working on it.. he really loves picking up his food and eating it.. he isn't really interested in being fed anymore.. next stop is bottles.. I have him on a sippy cup for every drink except bedtime.. thats always the hardest for Mom and Dad to give up! We tried to give him regular milk, but his little body can't handle it.. our lives are much better now that we found that Lactaid has a whole milk option.. whew!

Trevor is a joy and he will always be my little baby.. even if he is 1!!!!

Drew {5yrs}

Drew.. wow!!! What a year for Drew!!!  Let me just start off by saying.. HE ROCKED FOOTBALL this year!!!  I knew that Drew would have it in him.. I knew that he loved the game, but never did I think that he could be so focused and so into every practice and game.. its a lot.. football is a lot for a little guy.. and Drew took it.. and still loves it so very much!!!!  Not to mention.. we weren't going to put him in Kinder cause we didn't think he was ready, but since we moved we decided to enroll him.. this kid is doing great.. he is reading his books to me.. and doing his homework.. without too much of a fight.. we still really believe that he needs more work in his fine motor skills, but he is impressing us greatly!  We also found out that Drew needs glasses at his well visit he didn't do so well during the eye exam portion {either did Garrett} so we had a referral for both boys, but Drew needs to wear his handsome glasses all the time.. and might I say he is one handsome little guy in those glasses.. I love them!

**disclaimer.. had a baby.. moved.. moved again.. yadda yadda**

Garrett {7yrs}

Garrett loves to read.. his love for reading has grown so much this year.. its great to see him burry his head in books.. everything from comics to Magic Tree House chapter books.. I am loving every minute of it!!! He also kicked some major buns at football this year.. he was a 2 back {whatever that means.. I don't know anything about football}, but I do know that he ran the ball a lot!!! He has fancy foot work.. read plays like a little player.. got a lot of touchdowns and on the last game stripped the ball and made a touchdown!!! Garrett is having a little bit of an adjustment to the move, but he will get through it.. baseball starts here soon then next year he will make some new friends in football.. he is a great kid.. and an amazing big brother!!! Drew and Trevor light up whenever he is around.. they love him so much!

**I never did birthday pics.. or birthday updates.. we had a baby.. we moved.. moved again.. ya ya ya excuses**
