My Kindergartner Rocks!

Aid came running into the house after getting off the bus....

At school Miss Tucker had started a sticker incentive program.  Today was the end of it and Aid was in the top 3 for most check marks for positive behavior!  While everyone in the class got a sticker page, Aid and two of his classmates got 2!!  In classic Aid style, he immediately wondered if he did even better if he could get 3 sticker sheets instead of the 2.  I could do nothing but laugh.  Of course this was his thought. Sometimes I wonder if it will ever be enough.

I am so incredibly proud of him.  Sticker charts and behavioral charts have not really been successful with us.  My consistency with doing them probably doesn't help, but needless to say I am so happy that things are sinking in.  He is such a great kid, with the best heart, and he tries so hard.  It was beautiful to see his efforts pay off.

Way to go Aid!!

Effort for Dad

Ok Ok Dad. I know I haven't been good about this at all. I made a goal to not bring the computer with me upstairs and just read before bed. (I was staying up way too late just dinking around on the computer). And while you could finally join Facebook (I mean Uncle Greg is even on there!) I will make a concerted effort to keep this updated. I know you miss all of us and need to see their faces more. I love you Dad.

RAD Zoo

We don't know what RAD stands for exactly....but we went on a family adventure to a reptile zoo, which is really a huge warehouse full of every kind of reptile imaginable. While I have to admit that it somewhat concerned me that some of the larger animals did not seem to be in large enough cages, the boys loved this.

*gulp*

My favorite of the day. Grant's expression is priceless.

Love my boys

Grant would not touch this little fellow.

Aid said " Best place ever!"

Even little these guys are just bad ass.

Fast Lane!

Our new "fast" bike. Grant asked for a big kid red bike with flames and skulls on it.  We prepped him with "that's a lot to ask for in one bike. Let's go see what they have."  Thank you Toys R Us for making his dream bike complete with skills and flames.
