Two on Two and Two in School

Earlier this summer Cole learned how to ride a two wheeler. We had no plans to teach Henry, but he started having some interest while biking in the Heerey's driveway and would borrow Janie's Strider bike. Those seem to work awesome by the way. Anyway, we took Hen out to Tonawanda and he got it down in no time. Soon we'll get Kristin up on two wheels and go for some family bike rides. 

Cole and Henry both started school on Thursday. I wonder what the grandmas will do with all their free time. Our budget also improves as Haley, our Friday nanny, had her last day. The biggest negative is the increase in emails I get. I've probably gotten about 50 school related emails already. With two in school, I can't imagine the number of notices and reminders, etc. that I will be receiving. I don't think it's worth being a well informed, involved parent. I may have to leave that to Kristin.

Cole, I love you buddy, but you are destroying pictures. He is actually getting worse at taking pictures, which I'm not sure how that's possible. He was bad to begin with and we take thousands of them. His eyes are always going all over the place (never straight ahead), which looks goofy and his missing front teeth don't do him any favors. He makes my parents look photogenic (love ya 'rents).

We celebrated a successful first day of school at Jackson's Blue Ribbon Pub. And got a monster pretzel. Super delicious (props to the Milwaukee Pretzel Company). 

We also recently had the final day of Ninja class, which ended in an obstacle race. Sadly, the boys did not place. Cole claims he finished in fourth place, but provided no evidence to back that up. The boys are now signed up for more karate classes or whatever this dojo teaches.   

Looks like Hen tuckered himself out pretty good after running the race.

Random pics...boys like to get at my hair gel every once in awhile now.
