GO BEARS!

Andrew has really started to like football lately! He's so cute when we're watching the game he'll yell touchdown and put his arms up. Its amazing how much he picks up even just from listening to the tv from the other room.

TOUCH DOWN!

LOST & FOUND

When Andrew was home with Aaron recovering from his surjery (they had to fix some things on his "junk"), he definetely bonded with Aaron. I was starting to get really jealous feeling like I had lost my Momma's boy when all he did was call DaDa. By the end of the week the novelty of all the extra time wore off and he found his way back to being a Momma's boy again :) He had a great time with Aaron while it lasted though! There's also some pics from the Sandwich Fair - we both agreed that it wouldnt have been half as fun of we didnt go with Brooke, Ryan, & Kennedy :)

Andrew had surjery yesterday and is doing great! He had medicine before they took him back to "relax" him and it was hilarious! Aaron got a few pics on his cell phone in his adorable little gown. He's back to himself today - running all over the place!

Andrew would sit on hisback like he was a horse.

Going for a stroll with GG to see the horse, again ....

(I scared Chance with the flash :(
Andrew was in the weirdest mood when we picked him up on Friday,
this was his face in the car on the way to Earlville.
I love his little grasp on the football though
Loves of my Life :)

LOVE this shot!

Since I officially went back to work this week, we took some time out for some fun activities! Tuesday night we went to see the Joliet Jackhammers with our neighbors, Wednesday we played with one of our BFF's Ashley and Grayden :), Friday we went to visit with Aaron's great Uncle and Aunt from CO., and today we went to Phillips Park for a picnic, playtime at the park, and visited the little zoo. It was a nice day, but cut short due to a visit to the minute clinic for pink eye again! They say I may be prone to get it now! Grrreat! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and takes some time to enjoy the beautiful weather!!!

We took Andrew to Blackberry Farms Saturday. He loved being able to roam around, free to go wherever he wanted. They had a low wooden fence that he just loved to lean against when he could get a chance. We want to take him some place fun again this weekend for our last weekend before I go back to work :(

HOLY GUACAMOLE!

Messy Face!

Giddy Up!

Giving his horse Chance a nice kiss :) So Sweet.Andrew has started the "no eating" phase already and it has gotten very difficult to get him to eat the past couple of weeks. This week he all of a sudden started eating and I think he's been trying to catch up for all of the missed meals. Yesterday he CHOWED down guacamole mixed with carrots, and inhaled Tilapia. Poor little guy woke up this morning very uncomfortable and crawled off the chair and threw up all over Aaron and the kitchen floor. I know vomit smells horrible ANYTIME, but imagine the smell of Tilapia vomit! All the more reason for me stay away from fish. Tonight he had some chicken, carrots, and macaroni. We are so happy he is eating more consistently now.

Where has the summer gone?

He LOVES to play (a.k.a. eat) with crayons!

I was looking at the calendar and I have 2 weeks left until I go back to work! If only the school year flew by as fast as the summer! I start setting up my classroom this week, so Andrew will be excited to spend time with his friends again :) He went over to Antoinette's last week for just a couple of minutes and was upset when he had to come home. I will definetely enjoy every bit of these last 2 weeks with him!
