My Little Easton is THREE!!!

Easton has been wanting a batman cake because Tristan is into batman. Well, a couple days ago he changed his cake request to ninja turtles. Lovely! They have been watching the original TMNT movie over and over. Now, Easton loves ninja turtles lol! My friend Lynn was able to make his wish come true hehe. As for gifts, all he's mentioned is a big 4-wheeler. We went to Toys R Us a few weeks ago and he rode this Honda pedal 4-wheeler around the store and loved it. Uncle Ryan & Aunt Amanda, Mom, Gramps and I all went in together and got it for him. It's better to get one nice present instead of lots of little ones sometimes. It was a hit. We were just going to come home and have dinner after church, but decided to go to Outback with Austin & Crystal. Then, they came over and celebrated with us while we did cake and presents.
Happy 3rd Birthday my little Easton Todd-Michael. I love you so much and am so happy that you are FINALLY potty-trained! I love your kisses, cuddle-time, your voice, the way you run, your sensitivity, your independence issues, the way you NEVER stay in bed and your mischevious ways. :) Your Grandpa Drake would be so proud to know that you carry his name.

And Gramps is HERE

My grandpa has moved in with us temporarily until Ryan closes on his house. We've moved Brinley into my room and he is in hers. My kids love their grandpa and we are all happy to have him here with us.

Tristan's First Day of UPK











I love how every mom says how hard it is to let their child go to school....how they cry and have anxiety. I'm sooo not like that! Tristan was born ready to go to school LOL. I guess since I'm a teacher I know that he's fine. It's going to be really different next year when he goes to full-day kindergarten...but if I'm still teaching at Lanigan then I will put Tristan there with me.

Here are some pictures of him...and of course Easton had to get a picture too. He's sad he can't go to school yet....actually if he was fully potty trained then he could go to nursery school...but that's just not happening anytime soon haha!

I love my kids...they have grown so fast. Next year Tristan will be in Kindergarten and Easton in UPK...then the following year Tristan first, Easton Kindergarten, Brinley UPK...whew..that's hard to think about! That just means there may be room for baby #4 to be at home with me ;)
