Jackson's Birthday

This one is way overdue but Jackson had his 5th birthday while we were in Utah/Idaho. He wanted a Transformer birthday - we kept it simple with a pinata and cake!

One Year Ago

It has been one year since we lost our little Zachary. Part of me doesn't believe it's been a year and another part feels like it has been the longest year of my life. A day still doesn't go by that I don't replay in my mind being told - "your baby doesn't have a heart beat" and coming home looking at David and saying - "he's gone." I cherish those moments from his delivery and the hour we spent holding him - but I can't help but think what our baby - who would be 8 months now - would have been like - his little personality, who he would have looked like etc. But I am grateful to know that one day we will hold him and be with him again.

First Day of School!

Long overdue but I haven't really been on top of things!

Miles started 2nd grade and is doing really well! He loves going to school and has an awesome teacher Mrs. Hall.

Jackson is an old pro at pre-school as this is his 3rd year. We held him back as he just wasn't quite ready for the big Kindergarten - some days I do question this decision but know it was the right one for him!

Addison wasn't too sure about starting school. She calls it "princess school". She quickly decided it was fun since she gets to paint, play with playdough and lots of other messy activities that Mom doesn't let her do at home!!
