June is Already Over!

Lots happening in the Tormoehlen house!

June was a blur.  We celebrated Colin and Dylan's birthdays, I went on a vacation with college girlfriends, we took the boys to their first Rockies games, and we spent the past weekend in Greeley for Grandma and Grandpa Rady's 70th Anniversary!  Phew!

In-between all of this, we took a quick hour to snap some updated family photos.  I'm so thankful for them, as it's obvious how much the boys have been growing.

Here's an update on everyone:

Kyle:  Kyle has started his own business, Healthcare Transaction Advisers.  He's now has flexible hours and can do the things he wanted.  Hopefully it will take off and he will be very successful.  I'm sure it will!

Zachary:  He's now moved up to the preschool room.  There are many kids in the room, ranging in age from 3-6 years old, so it's been a big transition.  He's enjoying the summer program, bringing his bike to school, splash days, and walking to the park. He also finished another soccer season with Kyle as the coach.

Zachary's Favorite Things:
- The shows, "Paw Patrol", "Little Einsteins" and "How to Train Your Dragon" movie
- Pete the Cat and Curious George books
- Eating Dark Chocolate
- Riding bikes and swimming

Zachary Silly Things:
- Zachary talks about his butt all of the time.  He'll insert it into songs, giggle about his butt or other's butt and even ended up in the Principal's office for saying it too much at school.
- He loves wearing snow boots, even in June.
- He loves getting naked
- He has a spot on the couch.  Don't ever sit there.  Even the dog gets in trouble
- He's 3, so has to do everything himself.  He has to put his syrup on his pancakes.  He has to start his own movies.  Bossy, bossy.
- He likes catching miller moths with Max

Max Favorite Things:
- Watching movies with his brother
- Signing songs.  Now it's "If You're Happy and You Know It"
- Reading books in his room before bed
- HOT WHEELS.  He'll take inventory every morning and likes to line them up on the tile
- Eating everything in the fridge
- Dogs.  Looking at dogs, hugging dogs, everything dogs
- Looking for trucks on the road
Also, his vocabulary is HUGE!  He says many words like, "Please, Octopus, Lawn mower, Thank- You, Brother, Shark, Giraffe, Mouse, Bug, Night-night, Bed, Book, Diaper"....on and on.  He's quite the talker and it's over the top cute


Max Silly Things:
- He hates his diaper changed because it forces him to take a break from playing
- He demands eating fruit snacks before the bath and drinking ice cold water before bed
- He likes to wear his swimsuit but doesn't like to get in the water
- He LOVES wearing his flip flops
- He likes to wear hats.  Any hat will do.
- He likes to eat Oreo's.  He'll twist them to separate

This weekend is the 4th of July.  We'll be showing Zachary the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating competition, which has been a tradition with Kyle and I since we were dating.  Hope he thinks it's as silly as we do!

We're busy, but we're blessed.  Our boys are the best and it's great to be their mom!
