1st Day of Preschool

Thought we would share our pics of Tyler's first day of Preschool. He barely even said goodbye to me! He was so excited. When I picked him up he was actually upset. :( I'm not sure if that is good or bad. Today he learned the letter "A" and that God makes "Animals". So cute!

Is Summer Really Over???!!

I don't know if you all feel this way, but WOW summer flew by! I feel like Ty just started Summer Camp and now is already starting Preschool.

We had a wonderful summer. We spent a great week with my best friends, Carli, Jenni, Shaila, and our 11 kids. Yes, 11!! It was so awesome! We went to Channel Islands for a great beach day and to the indoor playground, Scooter's Jungle, for an exhausting action packed time. Zach, do we need to buy you a new hat???! Thanks for the memories guys.

We then proceeded to go to Hume Lake with the Lucas Clan for another fabulous trip. As soon as you start driving up this hill the Hume, it's like you are in Heaven. You seriously just feel the Lords presence. It's unexplainable. If you've never been, you must. Next year we are going for way longer!

Jason got a last minute opportunity to go to Cozumel with his friend, Peter, this past week. He had a great time. I have to admit I was a little jealous, but he needs some adult time too. :) Fortunately, my sister, Carrie, was able to hang with us and give me two extra hands to handle these munchkins.

So, here we are.......ready to begin our fall happenings. I will, once again, be a MOPS table leader this year. I can't wait to find out who my girls are and begin that fabulous ministry. Tyler begins preschool on Monday, he will be going twice a week. He continues to crack us up with his cute sayings. Shelby has 3 teeth, working on 4 and will probable be crawling by the end of the week.

She's a bundle of feistiness & love.

Love to you all and hope you had a great summer too! Melanie

Bye....Bye Paci

The day finally came to say goodbye to Tyler's beloved Paci. As most of you know his "B" and "Paci" are his two favorite things to cuddle with. I began asking him if he was ready to give it to the trash truck so they can give his paci's to other little boys. Well, on Thursday, he said he was ready. Thank goodness, that was trash day!! Yeah. So we made a great celebration out of it!

Such a Big Boy! Bye! Bye!

Hurray! & Fire Trucks & Trash Trucks, I'm so lucky!

Reality did sit in a little bit last night, but tonight was better. I'm actually torn about giving it up because it is just one more reminder that he is getting bigger. :( But, I'm such a proud Mama!

First Day of Summer Camp & other fun times......

Hi All, Tyler started Summer Camp last week! What a big boy he is becoming. He said, "Mama, I'm not going to cry because I'm a big boy now. I'm growing up." Oh, he knows just what to say to bring me to tears! He had a great time and brings home fun crafts for Mama and Daddy every day!


We also have added a few recent pics of the kiddos. Ty even took some all by himself. :)

Is it really the middle of June??!!!

Wow, I've slacked a little on posting. I guess life happens. :) The Bunn house is a little messy right now. Literally! We've begun the process of putting wood floors in on the whole downstairs. We are doing it all ourselves, so it's tedious! However, we just finished the kitchen & family room, so the end is in sight!

Jason is now healed, for the most part, and back at work. We were able to have some really great family time despite him being injured. We made a little trip to enjoy some fresh air in Fish Camp with my parents in April and visited Grandma Rachel & Jim and went to the air & train show in May. Then at the end of May we went on a little vacation with Grandma & Papa Williamson in Newport Beach. Such a great relaxing time!

The kids are good. Ty starts his first Summer Camp this coming Monday. I think he's excited, but I'm still trying to convince him that it is okay that Mama & Daddy won't be staying. :) We had a picnic at the park he will be at to familiarize him with it. It made him even more excited!

Shelby is changing every day! I can tell she has Ty's feisty attitude. She screams at us in between spoonfuls of food. We can't get it in fast enough. She's not a good sleeper, though! I guess she just has too much to see and do.

We are anxious for a fun summer in the pools and being with friends. Hope you are too! Melanie

Happy May!

Happy May!! Can you all believe summer is here?? It's amazing to me that our little Shelby is now 4 months old. The 3 of us all gathered around her this morning as she took her first bites of cereal. We were way more excited than she was! Really no big deal to her. :)

Jason is finally healing! He will be returning to work on "light duty" starting Monday. I'm going to need some major adjusting now that he won't be home everyday. Wow, that was sure nice. :)

Tyler is as funny as ever. He loves bugs! Any rolly polly or lady bug he finds just brightens his day. His Aunt Jeanette gave him a glass lady bug. We have made him a cute little bed with a blanket and all.

We have a big weekend planned....trip to Grandma Rachel's, an airshow, and a train show. So, check the blog next week to for more updates. :) Melanie
