Ben the Climber

While at my parents' house, Ben decided to climb on the chairs around the table. So I kept telling yelling at everyone to keep the chairs pushed in. Then he decided to pull the chairs out and climb from the chair to the table.

I don't know how I forget how much 15mo like to climb and how they want to be held and then they don't want to be held- especially at church. But I love the toddler stage. They learn and grow so much, it is fun to be a part of it. I'm even enjoying Ben's "tantrums." I end up laughing so he ends up laughing.

First Day of School August 22, 2011

I have a lot more to post about but today was the first day of school so I figured instead of trying to catch up, I'll just post about this and maybe get to the past stuff later.
We missed Meet the Teacher night. I'm sad about that because I met Adam's teacher today after school as we were crossing the crosswalk, she was on yard duty. She seems nice but I'd like a little more than "hi, I'm Adam's mom" and her telling me how sweet Adam is before we lose Isaac because he walks runs faster to the car.
I'm hopeful about a great school year even with the goofy photos the boys let me take.
