First Soccer Practice!

Today was Will's first soccer practice. Saturday is his first game. It was really cute, and the kids actually did some fun drills. Will's team is the Tigers and he is #9...just like his daddy! I'll add lots of pictures on Saturday from the game. Here is a photo of Will before we went to practice - I think he was most excited about his new cleats!

Some of the cute kids on the team...
Water break!
Doing a dribbling drill called "The Snake!"

Will's favorite part of practice was a running race! He was really quick and was running so hard!

First Day of School!

It's time to begin another school year! Both Will and Sam will be going this year. Will will go three mornings a week, and Sam will go one morning a week. Will was very excited to go this morning and of course Sam starting crying as soon as I handed him over to his teacher.

It was next to impossible trying to get photos this morning... : )

Sam and his lunchbag! Does anyone remember this photo of Will two years ago where his bag just looked so huge sitting next to him? There was no way he was going to carry it. Well, this is the same size lunch bag and Sam just had to carry it.

Ok, I had to find it...here is Will on his first day of school 2 years ago.
Here is my little Will this year...
The boys wanted to pick at the tree all morning instead of getting their picture taken.

We'll keep you posted on how the first day went after I pick them up today.

Labor Day!

We had a fun Labor Day Weekend at SSI!

Sam so happy in the fort...

Here are a few of Will just wanting to play games...

Sunflowers!!

Here are the sunflowers that Will planted earlier this summer...

Science in Maine

While we were at Nana's, Dr. JoJo and Dr. Tussy (Chris) conducted quite a few science experiments for Will and Sam. Will even got a lab coat with his name and they both got some cool lab goggles! It was so wonderful, and Will is still talking about it. They loved it! Here are some cute photos of the SCIENCE FUN! : )

Can you beleive all this stuff was set up for us?

Will loved the "poke (smoke)!"

Mr. Science Sam!
Will is just mesmorized...
Is this the correct result?
This is cool stuff!

Fun in Maine at Nanas!

The boys (and mom and dad) had so much fun in Maine visiting Nana! The beach was great, it was so fun being with Nana, Auntie JoJo and Uncle Chris, and Will loved the train the ride with Nana! Here are a few photos of the fun...

Here are the boys at the airport!

Back Together...

The boys had fun today being back together after they were apart for a full 53 hours... : )

Sam is King of the Castle...for a weekend!

Uma and Pops took Will to the beach for the weekend so Sam got to see what it was like to be the king of the castle for a weekend. He enjoyed his trips to Home Depot with Daddy and other fun stuff, but I know he missed his brother (at least a little bit). :) Here are a few photos of Sam from the weekend.

Baseball isn't as much fun without my brother!

Just chillin out! So happy to play!
