Ten Months, Tumbling, Trucks, and ... School.

Okay this post is becoming two posts in one because I just now had the time to sit down and churn it out. Since pictures are worth a thousand words, I think this month captions will be most efficient.


 

Duncan turned 10 months old this month. He's crawling around, standing himself up, and exploring everything. He also got his first hair cut so he looks a lot more like the rest of them now. 

 

Jack and Logan enjoyed PE Plus camp this summer. The first day was tumbling and concluded with a human pyramid. It was hilarious.  The boys are on the upper left.




As a last fun activity Grandma, Grandpa and I took the kids to Highlands Ranch Touch a Truck. There was so much more than we had time to see, but the kids loved the armored Sheriff's rescue van, the Sheriff's motorcycles, and (not pictured) the U-Haul trucks. Yes, that's right the U-Hauls. So funny!


 

Finally, we started school on the 25th of July. You may think this is early, but it allows us to take more breaks throughout the year.  Every quarter or so I like to take a 1 week break. It really helps us a lot.  And now that they are on the same schedule, we can move towards the goal of  "Year Round School" in that we can end early in the spring and start earlier in the summer. 

Second grade, Kindergarten, and "Pre-Preschool" for our big boys. Spencer was determined to have a photo with the boards. And he has some new watercolors he has been using every day so far. He really wants to learn with this big brothers!

Until next time!

New Ride!

Well, it's no Mustang, but it is black! What we got was a 2009 Pontiac Vibe. At any rate, we both like it. It was a reasonable price for a smaller sized family-with-lots-of-stuff car. It served the purpose of "ease of child seat access" and "can load many groceries plus a dog" into the back.  (You should have seen us try to get the rocking chair into the Mustang.)  It also serves the gas economy purpose (31/28 advertised) and was not a big SUV, or a minivan. I have never been fond of driving huge cars or trucks! It looks like a five door hatchback to us, but I guess it is technically listed as a "wagon." Some things go full circle, eh Mom?  Maybe a bit cooler than the Corona Wagon we drove in Texas, or whatever it was called.  Sorry the photo isn't super great, it's raining and cold so I pretty much didn't want to go out of the garage.  There are some more photos on our Flickr account (see link to right "other photos...")   It act...

4th of July and Other Buzz News

Greetings to all! I have finally had time to upload some more photos for Flickr and the blog and can keep you up to date on the Buzz around our water cooler, so to speak. :-) We've had a busy 2 months! Nonie and Papa Sudar came to visit for a few weeks at the end of June and through the 4th of July. We all had a good time. We spent a few days down in Walsenburg with most of the Tressells which Jack really enjoyed. And we really enjoyed the small break from constantly watching Jack! Thanks everyone!! Catch Papa! Bubbles in Walsenburg Cousins Making Cookies! Since we've been back we have been working on getting all the stuff in our garage either back into the basement, into the trash, or ready for donation. Our goal is simple: both cars inside by winter. Hopefully we can make it happen! So far things are going pretty well with Baby Buzz. We went to the doctor's last week for an ultrasound because I was measuring small (just like last time). This time I guess Buzz is a li...

I'm Gonna Have To Get a Female Cat. . .

Today was our 20 week ultrasound and appointment! Everything is going really well. Baby looks to be about 9 oz in weight and has a good heartbeat of about 132 bpm. But enough stalling! It appears I remain outnumbered in our home now - 3 boys to 1 girl (5:1 if you count our feline friends!). That's right folks, another boy! How many of you were right??? We were able to get a nice "up from the bottom" shot that confirmed the gender. We also took a nice shot of his foot, and his profile. Actually, I think I was in there for 45 minutes and she took about 50 shots of various organs and body parts. We got the two thumb's up from the doctor that he's looking great. I also got some medicine to try if my nausea continues to be a burden. Yes, just today I was feeling sick again. *sigh* Just for comparison I looked up some of the posts from this time with Jack: Nov 2008 Some things are the same: I still can't eat fruit without feeling sick, and I'm dropping thing...
