Saturday

Kenzie stayed with Jacob and Adam this afternoon while Jared and I (and Eli) met the realtor to look at 5 different home. We liked 3 of the 5 homes we look at. The boys had a fun time with Kenzie. They sure painted a lot of pictures. When we got home they were outside playing in the fort.

Friday

Eli now likes to stick out his tongue and blow out his mouth to make sounds.

Thursday

We found a praying mantis.

This evening we went to Jacob's school for a picnic and to meet his teacher. Jacob was excited to see some of his friends from preschool were there. He talked with his teacher and then looked around his classroom. I can't believe he starts kindergarten in a week.

8-30-10 (7 year anniversary)

Eli woke up early this morning. He fell asleep next to me in our bed and slept there until Jacob and Adam climbed in bed. Jared took today off of work for our anniversary. We went to Tim Horton’s and Dunken donuts for drinks and donuts (pumpkin muffin for me). Then we drove around looking at houses that are for sale. We got home around noon and just spent a few hours relaxing. The boys played with their tools. They also pretended to be camping in Adam's bottom bunk. Eli took a long nap and woke up around 3pm. Jared rode to to meijer on the scooter for a few groceries. Mom came to our house around 4:30 and brought a pizza for their dinner tonight. She stayed with the boys while Jared went out for our anniversary. First we went to Blockbuster to pick out a movie. Then we went out for dinner at Pi’s. After dinner we drove around town looking for a couple other houses were interested in. I got a cappuccino from Tim Horton’s and then we went to the mall to walk around. We stopped at meijer to pick out some cards to give each other and had a lot of fun doing that. It was around 9pm when we got home. The boys had a fun time with Nana. They watched Homeward Bound and had popcorn and ice cream. Eli was asleep and Adam was in bed when we got home. We bought a bright blinking LED light to go on the back of Jared's scooter and went outside to put it on. Tonight Jared and I watched a movie called Date Night, which was funny. We were going to make popcorn but were still too full from dinner. After the movie we watched an episode of I Love Lucy.
