Like Son, Like Daughter

It's a rare occasion  that Jason and I get to go out and have a night alone without twiddle dee and twiddle dum (a.k.a Grayson and Colbie) so when Aunt Deb gave us the opportunity to have a night out on the town we jumped.  For starter we went to dinner at Lognhorns, yummo, then topped that off with a movie.  We saw The Blind Side, A-MAZ-ING!  Loved that movie, and love Sandra Bullock which made it even better.  

While we were out we learned that Colbie although small in size thinks she deserves gummy bear just like the rest of the older kids got, and sucked them down like they were...well, candy!  She is a mess.  Grayson takes care of her at all cost when someone else is around, but let her touch something he has or wants and nice big brother goes out the window.

  

Colbie adores her big brother and wants to do everything he does.  Don't get me wrong she's 100% girl but will always add something of Grayson's into the mix...like pushing her stroller and babydoll with a hammer in there too, or wearing a tutu while playing with a monster truck.  What a blessing each of them are to Jason and I.  It's good to have our date nights but oh so sweet to come home.

Back To School...

Grayson started back to school along with most other students this past Tuesday.  However, most other student didn't have a cute adorable kid sister tagging along.  Yes, Colbie Via started a mother's morning out program this week.  She will be going to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 to 1pm.  I must say it was heart breaking to leave her with all the tears and sobbing and one more hug before I leave.  She on the other hand simply looked at me with a precious grin and waved "bye-bye"or in other words ( Colbie's version)....."new toys and no big brother to take them from me C-ya!"


 

They were both so excited about going back to school.  Each got a new bookbag and lunch box and Grayson picked out some super cool spiderman light up shoes!  Big deal at this house!!  And would you believe that after one day of school, yes just one day, we already have a Doctor on our hands.




Who of course in her off time just likes to relax in her "comfy" clothes and hang out.




I mean really, who could resisted this Doctor?

Another big event here was the snow we just got last night.  Grayson was determined to make a snowman no matter how many times I told him there wasn't enough snow.

  

HAPPY SNOW DAY!
