Pudding Pops, ABC's, and Tailgating...what more could you ask for?

I remember pudding pops from when I was a kid...so when I saw them in the store I had to get them. Now...for some reason to me they aren't quite as outstanding as I remember...but it must be a kid thing because Natalie and Justin inhaled them! Now...I didn't think Justin was quite ready for a popsicle type item...but during a trip to Grandma and Grandpa Curtis's house he was offered a Dora popsicle and he quite enjoyed it so I figured...put a bib on him...put him outside...let him go to town...and the result...a choco-fied toddler:

As for Natalie...her pudding pop made her a bit goofy but she stayed much cleaner then her brother:

Natalie is also really into performing for the camera...so when you have a minute you'll have to view her ABC's song and dance because I'm sure you'll see it again in about 20 years when she's super famous and her biography can say that she began her singing career when she was just 3 years old!

And finally....ISU tailgating has officially started. We had really nice weather and the kids ran wild. Here are a few pictures from that day:

End of Summer...Beginning of School

So...it's that time of year now...summer has come to an end and Natalie has started preschool again. We ended the summer with a few little adventures which included a night at the ISU Fan Fair, a road trip to the Lincoln Balloon Festival, a trip to the zoo with cousin Sydney, a day at Make-A-Mess, and an adventure to the Fondulac Farm Park. So summer went out with a bang! Here's a few pictures of these little adventures.

Today Natalie headed off to her new classroom for 3 year olds. She did awesome and I had to chase her down to give her a kiss good-bye. This year she'll be going three mornings a week and from the way things went today I think she's going to really enjoy her time there. I'm looking forward to having a little one-on-one time with Justin while she's in school...of course today he spent the entire time taking a nap...but don't worry we had plenty of bonding time last night around 2 am! Here's some school pics:

Let's just hope she stays out of the "Try Again" chair while at school!!!
