Tyler

Tyler came up to my room early this morning. I was brushing my teeth and the first thing he said was- Mom did you know that today is the first day of September! So how many more days until my birthday? 26 I said. Then he proceeded to count to 26. Commenting that he can count higher than that and pushed on to 115 instead.

He also starts school in 7 days. He commented several times how he wishes school could start tomorrow and not on the 8th.

Then we went to the store to buy a backpack. There was a nice cars one with Lightening McQueen and even a nice old plain black one. Then we turn the corner and boom! A "delightful" Thomas the Train back pack- Lucky us, you can wear it on your back or roll it around on it's wheels. I did try to talk him out of it, It is a bit over the top when it comes to cheezy- but no, Thomas was coming home with us.

Ella loves to wear it too. It almost touches the ground when she wears it.

pictures to come..

that is amazing. on chloe's report cards last year she was considered 'above average' because she could count to 100.

Is he starting kindergarten? If so, I didn't realize he and Alyssa are so close in age. We really need to get all these cousins together!

counting to 115! That's impressive. :) I bet he (and Ella) are so cute wearing the Thomas backpack.

Oh my, Nolan! Just so you know, he left that comment about Tyler being a nerd. Sheesh. :) I can just picture Tyler being so excited about his backpack. He's such a cute kid!
