Happy Birthday Boys!

On Friday, August 10, we celebrated the boys' birthdays with family.  Brody and Colby requested a fishing party, so that is what we did!  We all went over to the pond and let the kids fish for over an hour.  I think everyone had a great time, and they actually caught quite a few fish!!  Happy Birthday Brody and Colby!

Colby's First Day of Pre-K

Colby returned to school on Monday, August 6.  He is going to Pre-K 5 days a week this year at HBK, and he is very excited to be a Pre-Kindergartner!!  I am in amazement that he is even old enough to be in Pre-K!  His teacher is Ms. Lee Ann, and he really loves her!  I can't wait to see all that he learns this year! 

Colby turns 4!

Colby turned 4 years old on August 4!!!  4 years...wow!!!  I feel like we just celebrated his 3rd birthday.  These boys are truly growing up way too fast!  Colby has accomplished so many things over the last year...no longer sleeps in a diaper at night, can reach our light switches, climbs the steps without holding on, can write his name, started Pre-K, and so much more!  We cherish each and every accomplishment /milestone, because four years ago, we didn't know how many milestones we would be able to see.  God has blessed us beyond belief with this little guy!  He continues to defy the odds and inspire us daily.  Happy Birthday Colby Chance!!  

First a Duathlon...Now a Triathlon

H.E.A.T (Hendersonville Endurance Athletic Team) and the Sumner County YMCA host a Kids' Triathlon each year in August, and Brody was old enough to participate this year.  So, on Saturday August 4, Brody became the first person in our family to complete a triathlon!!  The 6-10 year olds swam 50 meters, biked 2 miles (with a lot of hills!), and then ran 1 mile.  Brody did really well, finishing in 29:28...8th out of 13 six and seven year old boys.  We are so proud of Brody for getting out there and being active!!  He inspires me so much with his eagerness to try new things!!
