Family: August went way too fast........We kicked it off right though.....little Saigie poo (Karlee and Tyson's baby) got blessed. Then on the 5th we got to play with more cousins (Kristy and her kids). They came up on a Monday night and we went swimming then the next morning we went to the zoo. Then to celebrate Dylan's upcoming birthday, we went to Chuck-E-Cheese. It was a blast and we are so glad that they came up. We were even lucky enough to have Colby be able to come with us!
During the month of August, Thanksgiving Point did $2 Tuesdays where each attraction was just $2! So we went and walked around the gorgeous gardens, fed the koi fish, saw the amazing waterfalls, then we headed over to the farms to see all of the animals. It was a blast! Definitely a fun family outing.
Colby: He got to actually enjoy a little time off of school! Although he did have to do a little studying, he tried to get some relaxation in and even got to go bow hunting with his brothers and dad. I'm so glad he got to do that and separate himself from school for a bit. He also got to hit up the golf course a few times.
Megan: I spent August having fun with the fam and I also got in several extra shifts at work. The preparation for the big Cedar 1/2 marathon was in full swing and I tried really hard to stay on track with it.
Hayden: We used the whole month of August in preparation for her to start preschool. She is like her father in the fact that she doesn't like surprises. So I knew we would need to talk about it a lot and really prep her for it. She was so excited when the time finally came. I didn't take the time to go school shopping so I ordered online even though we have every thing here less than a 3 mile radius. So when her grandma Nikki asked her where she got her school clothes she said, "From the mail!" Ha ha. When the big day finally came I was so surprised with how well she did. She paused for a minute when we were walking up to the school but this cute little girl from her class named Cassie came up and started talking to her and stood in line with her. It was pretty cute!! She loved school and was super excited to go the next day. She goes Monday through Thursday for 2 1/2 hours in the morning.
Hanna: This little cutie became quite mobile in August! She got pretty proficient at crawling and pulling herself up to things. She was taking 2 longer naps during the day and 1 shorter cat nap in the evening. She was still waking up around 5ish and then she went through a rough patch when we were gone a lot and wasn't sleeping the greatest. One night when she was supposed to be sleeping Colby went in to check on her and found that she had pulled herself up and was dangling over the edge of the crib!! Freaked us out so at 10 o'clock at night with Hayden asleep on her bed in that same room, Colby had to drop her crib mattress all the way down to the bottom. Then just a few days later she started crawling. She loves to giggle and babble. She is eating more and more big people food and she loves it. She also loves being outside and playing on the grass. She doesn't move much but she just likes to sit there.
