Two questions...
1. How do you get a 2 year old to look at the camera? Courtney this one if for you, Korley always takes great pictures.
2. What do you do with a strong willed 2 year old? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
So we had a very busy weekend and this week looks even wilder. We started off Thursday night by going to kindergarten orientation. No, I did not cry, but was trying really hard. Luke saw so many friends and was running circles. He bought spirit wear and has been very proud to wear his Eagle shirts. Friday, Scott's parents came to town, so we went to dinner with them. Saturday we went to Rainforest Cafe for Adi's birthday. Sunday we went to church with the G's because Adi was baptized. Talk about amazing, her dad was able to baptize her. It was the sweetest thing ever. We went to lunch and swimming, to follow up the night with an outing to the Roughriders game. Scott and I had just been saying we had not gone and some friends of ours invited us to go. I had plans for the night, but went to the game and girls picked me up at the game. Luke was asked to go on the field to play a game. He had to race to get his shoes, put them on, tie them, and run back. To bad we are horrible parents and have not taught him to tie his shoes. They were actually supposed to be 6, but they let Luke play since he is almost 6. Well when I left our strong will Jake wanted to drink Dr. Pepper. Scott tried to grab the cup and there went the DP, all over Scott. We had fun though. We are going to have fun all week with my last week of 2 kids at home. If you hear someone crying next Monday, it will probably be me.

um, whatever! for every one picture i have of korley looking at the camera, i have 10 where she is not!
i can't believe luke is about to start kindergarten! our babies are growing up too fast!
miss you guys!
I am right there with you. Gwyneth starts Kinder too and I AM A MESS.
Let me know what works with your two year old. I have a strong willed three year old. :)
a strong willed 2 year old quickly turns into a strong willed 4 year old. i know b/c i have one. :) i try to give 2-3 options on things rather than open ended questions or requests... so she feels like she's in control & i get her to do what i need her to do. :) it gets better!
as for the birthday cakes... yes, I made them. one of my creative outlets. thanks for noticing! maybe someday we'll move back to texas & y'all can come to a bday party at our house. how cool would that be, to be so close???? :)
have a great day!
Jaime
ps- when does school start for y'all?
