Vivian Speaks

It's official Vivian has three words: bye, mama and dada! Now if she would only sleep.........

Pumpkin Carving, Parades, Potlucks....Halloween... Oh My!

Lots of fall fun around these parts. Today Max and I walked in the Mapleleaf Halloween parade and then went to a potluck at his friend Roman's house. We had Pumpkin carving Friday night and tomorrow we head out with friends Spike and Harrison to trick or treat. Vivian has mostly been a ballerina but we might break out the ladybug costume tomorrow. Happy Halloween!

More Birthday fun at Kelsey Creek Farm

Max's 5th Birthday Party at Kelsey Creek Farm

More pictures to follow....

While I'm waiting

Two huge events at the Beene household. Max turns 5 and one week later at 10.5 months Vivian takes 7 steps in a row! I'm waiting for my friend Kathrine (who took tons of pictures) to finish editing and send them to me so I can post pictures from Max's party. In the meantime this little firecracker has decided to start walking! Hopefully, it won't be another empty promise to the blog and I'll post video.

Max's first day of Preschool

It's the last year before kindergarten starts for Max! Looking forward to a good year with Teacher Suzie. Max has changed so much since last year. Lots of exciting changes for the PM class. Beginning reading, numbers, lining up, and cleaning up after themselves. Such a big boy now. Sigh.......

Max starts school soon

It's Labor Day weekend and I've been at Victory Heights cleaning up and getting ready for the new year! I'm excited to meet the new kids and see what this year brings! I'll have 3 afternoons a week with just Viv so maybe I'll be able to get a few things done if...........ha ha ha she takes a nap at the right time. Looks like a nice weekend ahead. No big plans.
