First Day of School: 2016-2017

First Day of School 2016-2017
The first official day of school is here!  Everyone is transitioning to new classrooms at school and they are excited.  The boys are most excited about their backpacks! And of course, I could not let them have the purple dog collars...they needed to be personalized. 
Here are some photos of the first day of school and Harper's first week in her uniform.

Bye Bye Pacifier

Yesterday, I was late to work b/c of the boys pacifier addiction.  I had been thinking for a while now (like a year and a half) that it was time to give them up.  B/c I ended up being late to a meeting, I decided it was time.  Josh was traveling - which was a good thing.  I know he would have given in if they weren't sleeping well.  So I pumped myself up all day.

I cut the pacifiers and then placed them back in their cribs.  I knew I had to cut them or I would be digging them out of the trash.  
It was time for bed (I was nervous and ready).  I put the boys in their cribs and immediately they put them in their mouths to find they weren't working.  UH OH!

I told them they were broken and we had to throw them away.  Gatlin marched right to the trash.  Houston on the other hand was a little reluctant. He had to suck every last pacifier he had before saying "bye bye paci".  After that, we went back to bed and Gatlin laid right back down and went to sleep.  Houston cried for about 4 minutes and that was it.  ALL DONE!  that easy.  They mentioned them the next night once.  I reminded them where they were and then they went to sleep.  THANK GOODNESS for easy boys!  YAY.  BYE BYE PACI!

Ears pierced

Harperr got her ears pierced! She had been asking for a while.  I always said that once she asked, I would be fine to take her.  The boys were with Nana & the Gov, so Josh and I figured that was the perfect time.  She was so excited and a little nervous.  She was so still and did great!  She said it hurt "just a little".  Here is our 4 year old looking like a big girl.  Fun fact, mom got hers pierced at 4 too!

Harper Says

The other night Harper and I were fine dining at Wendy's and she noticed the olympic rings on her milk (they are under the American Flag).

H: Mom, Look at my milk!  (and takes a big sip)
It tastes like the Olympics. like gymnastics.
