August Layouts

I love making baby boy layouts, and this line is just the cutest.  My first layout is for CSI's August Cold Case.  I used leftover numbers for part of the tile and cut apart cards for a number of the elements on this page.

I had to scrap this darling picture of Nathan at the salon for the first time.  I added a little tree element to this page for Lasting Memories' challenge 457.

Finally, I was inspired by More Than Words' layout sketch.  Just looking at my little boy makes me happy!

First Day of Pre-Kindergarten!

Nathan started pre-k this week!    

He is now in Ms. Lauren's pre-kindergarten class at La Luz Early Childhood, and he loves that the classroom is space themed!

His school had two in service days before the start of the school year, so Jesse took one of those days off with Nathan and they went to the Natural History Museum where they saw a new exhibit -- a moving growling T-Rex replica!

On my day with Nathan, we went to the zoo, where we saw the new penguin exhibit in addition to exploring virtually the entire zoo!  Nathan is growing up fast and sure is a bundle of energy!

Friends

We have had a lot of fun hanging out with friends lately -- look at us being social!  We are lucky to have great old and new friends in our lives.

Summer Fun

It has been a hot summer so we bought a huge shade umbrella for soccer games, and Nathan wanted to take it to the park. I had to take a picture because it is so much bigger than he is!

We have tried a few new things around town.  Nathan's friend had a birthday party at a trampoline park, and he had the best time jumping around for hours!

He is always on the move, zooming around with his toys at home too.

Now that soccer season is over, we spent Saturday morning at Explora and enjoyed a lot of their new hands on exhibits.
