Time Flying By

It's been a great weekend! The weather has been beautiful and we've been enjoying hanging out together. Wil took Alex to see the Tartan High School football game Friday night. They stayed until about halftime and had a lot of fun. It rained a bit and it was a little cold, so they stayed as long as they could stand.
Fletcher got his 1 year pictures done yesterday and they turned out great! We also took him to get his first haircut at Kids' Hair. He didn't cry at all and got a very nice hair cut. I am sad to see his baby hair gone, but he looks very handsome with his little man cut.
Tomorrow is Alex's first day of school. I decided to take the day off so that we can take him together. I cannot believe how fast things are going. I swear I just brought him home from the hospital yesterday! So many big changes for us these days!

End of summer



Summer is starting to wind down which means a lot of new things in our home! Fletcher had his 1 year checkup the other day. He weighed 28# 9 oz and is 32.25 inches tall! Everything is just fine and he is as healthy as can be. He zooms around the house, adores his big brother, and laughs a lot. He pulls himself up and cruises around, but is waiting to take some steps. He babbles a lot and likes pointing at things. He loves his big brother and they are super silly together!

Alex will be starting kindergarten on 9/13 at L'etoile Du Nord elementary in St. Paul. We went to the open house the other night and met his teacher. She seems very nice and Alex liked her. I am so excited for him to learn new things and make new friends. We have gotten most of his school supplies but need to hunt for a few more things. Apparently waiting until the end of August to shop for these things is a bad idea. Lesson learned for next year!

We have had a great summer and I am looking forward to fall. The cooler weather has been so nice!
