He had his own gift unwrapper (his sister). So all he had to do is play. He never got overwhelmed or crabby.

He really enjoyed the cake and knew exactly what to do with it.

Zach's 1st Birthday

I can't believe that our little baby is a year old. Gosh this year has really flown by. Our pool party turned out to be a bust. Next time we'll have to remember to have it earlier in the day so the Monsoon rains don't ruin it.

Victoria's First Day of Fifth Grade

Victoria started fifth grade. She was so excited to start school, so she didn't have to take care of Zach anymore. Poor Zach:( Interestingly enough she could wait to see him after she got home. Everyone liked her hair. She has a new teacher this year and, "She is soooo nice!" After one day I don't think they would be mean.
Brent had another episode with his hernia. He was sick for 3 1/2 days this time. I guess they are giving him some medicine to try for a couple of weeks. If it doesn't work he will have to go to a specialist.
Zach is sick with a cold. Hopefully he will be better for his birthday.
As far as I go I'm just trying to remember how to get back into the groove of the school/homework/cheer schedule.

It's hard to believe that in a little over a week Victoria will be starting back to school. Zach is going to be sooo upset. He just loves his sister. Victoria was also placed on two cheer teams. She is an alternate on the Junior level 5 team and will possibly be put permanently on it soon. She is also on a Senior level 4 team which she gets to fly on so she is in heaven. We will see how it works out.
Zach finally got another tooth in so he's up to three, but that's not stopping him from eating everything(and I do mean everything). He is off the bottle and is drinking milk. He really doesn't care for the milk though. The kids are in the pool everyday. I don't know what we did with out one. If Zach sees that someone went outside without him he gets so upset. He automatically thinks that someone is swimming without him.
