Beau & Bennett: Summer Wrap Up

We've had a busy summer with several exciting events! Beau started a new school mid-June. It was a tough transition. After 6 weeks of crying everyday, he finally decided it was a pretty cool place. Now he loves it and looks forward to going, especially playing outside on the playground.

He went to the dentist for the 1st time and was a good little patient. He went to the eye dr. and wasn't such a great patient, but what 2 year old wants his eyes dilated?! We found out that Beau is far-sighted and needs glasses. It was a challenge finding glasses that fit such a little fellow. He's had them for 3 weeks now and I am SO proud of how well he is doing with them. He wears them all the time and they haven't slowed him down one bit!

The big news for our family was finding out that Beau is having a little SISTER! Bennett is expected to arrive Jan. 3. Beau is excited. When we first told him it was a girl, he cried and said he didn't want anything. But now he kisses my tummy and tells Bennett that he loves her. Makes my heart melt! He went with me to a dr. visit and "assisted" the dr. in listening to her heartbeat. He got to see the hospital helicopter take off while we were waiting. Of course, the helicopter made a much greater impression on him than hearing Bennett's heartbeat! ha!

Here a few pictures to wrap up the summer.
