Hopeful!

Nate was back at children's today for another food challenge. He ate a total of 8 whole wheat crackers (triscuits)! So far so good, he had no reaction. He will eat 6.5 (yes, really) for the next 3 days and then he is cleared! What will remain is barley and eggs.

Jack wants to put his lemonade stand on the web (his words, not mine). So here we are:

JACK'S LEMONADE STAND

location: our house

hours:  sunny days from 3:30-5

what: Country Time Lemonade with ice

Price: 50 Cents a cup

Nate can't stop kicking!

After his first day of real soccer! He is on the maroon team in the U5 (under 5 years old) local league.

Dancing!

My cousin (the bride) dancing with my 92 year old grandma. (They managed to get her stable and off her the walker for a few).

New playground at their school opened today!

Lemonade!

Jack has been having a lemonade stand almost everyday. He made a sign and a flag (and probably $12)

Soccer!

Jack is back with most the same teammates and the same coaches. Go navy (blue!)

First Day of 1st Grade and PreK!

Nate and Jack are finally at the same school! Both boys had a fine day. Nate was right at home in his new school having been there at least 1x a day for the last 2 years picking up (and sometimes dropping off) Jack.

Day 2 at children's (good stuff) (knock on wood)

Jack's cast came off yesterday and he is fine to play, etc. he can start soccer with his team and everything!

Nate had a "food challenge" for milk today. He drank 1 teaspoon, then 2, the 5oz of whole milk! Despite my paranoia he "passed." He will be cleared if he can drink 6 oz for 3 more days!

Dancing Nate

We happened upon a concert in our town..

Mini golfing in TC!

Air hockey!

At the great wolf lodge in traverse city! It is complete with enormous water park, bowling and mini golf! They are going to be (even more) spoiled after this. Hoping the waterproof covers work on jacks cast,

Jack lost his first tooth!

Lego

He is still managed (with some help holding things steady) to finish the free special build at the local lego store yesterday.

Yes again! Jack is here- looking happy 2days after surgery for another supracondylar fracture of his left humerus.

Nate's Birthday Party

Nate only wanted 2 kids at his party, but due to scheduling and having 2 friends who also have stay-at-home parents, we had their siblings too!

We also let him open his presents since Jack go to do so this year on his birthday party day (since we were away for Jack's actual birthday). I didn't want a week of whining and forgot to "warn" Nate about the normal tradition of opening on the birthday. Since we also had visits from 2 grandparents this weekend, it has been a LOT of presents in the last few days.
