Pirates and Trains! Oh My!

Dress like a Pirate Day at London's school today... they are the Stevenson Pirates, so why not! It was a lot of fun coming up with an outfit. Ewan wanted to get in on the picture taking :)



Having fun at the picnic... but it was sooooo HOT!
The Sherman Oaks mall has a new train, and of course once Ewan and London spotted it, they HAD to ride it! Even better, the name of this choo choo train was "Ladybug Express". Perfect!



Hope everyone had a nice week! 2nd week of school and counting ;) Looking forward to the weekend. London has her 2nd soccer game and its StarWars Day at the LA Zoo!!! Oh boy!

A week of First...for London :)

Today London had her first soccer game... it ended in a tie, but they don't keep score, so technically I shouldn't be saying that ;) Eric is the coach, and its really a wonderful group of parents and girls, so blessed. She LOVED it!
Corner Kick! She also assisted in a goal!


Team name: Fire Flies!
Picking her up after her first day of kindergarten! She had a great day!!
Waiting in line for her teacher, it was hot, and sunny!!


Here she is our big Kindergartner! We are so very proud of her. She did very well for her first week, came home with stamps, stickers, certificates of good behavior, and a gold coin! (they collect gold coins, once they have 10 they get a prize from the treasure chest) Her school is R.L. Stevenson, they are the PIRATES, arrrr! So cute, it was a very full week for us all! Now mom is joining PTA and FFS! They have great support from parents, its a wonderful program. Feeling very blessed she is where she is.
Cheers to the start of this wonderful journey, its going to go so quickly!

Ewan Turns Two and so much more!

Ewan turned two! yup! I know we can hardly believe it... sooo what's new at two... He's a talker over a 100 words ;), LOVES trains, buses, fire trucks, and his Sissy ;), a momma's boy, loves to sing in fact sang today while daddy tried to give confession time at church, his own little solo he thought would be more effective ;), but really a happy happy boy.



London finished her last week of camp... this is her best bud Niko, she always says, "momma he makes me laugh" She begins Kindergarten TOMORROW!
Kidspace... Bug Fair! We had a fun day with her best bud Gavin!
Here they are eating mill worms, YUP you read that right, Gavin even went as far as to eat a cricket. London said, No thanks!

Dinner Night Outs happened a lot in July with swim class every evening and gymnastics twice a week on top of it, time was rough to make it home to cook.

Dentist time... London's teeth were all good, we saw her 6 year molars coming and her permanent teeth showing so dentist said she will loose baby teeth anytime this next year!
Ewan had a great check up as well. He was great! So happy our kids like the dentist!

Ewan had his second birthday at Travel Town, a train museum here in Los Angeles, he was soooooo happy, and we were happy that it was not a hot day that day :)
setting up the train table.








On Ewan's actual birthday we went to the Americana for a trolley ride, dinner at Cheesecake Factory, cupcakes at Crumbs Bakery, and shopping for Ewan using gift certificates he got...Thank you!








Last hoo raa before School starts on Monday.... so we went to Disneyland for the weekend. Stayed the evening at Uncle Ken and Aunt Helen's, were sad to miss seeing Aunt Helen, but had a nice visit with Uncle Ken and the cousins.... London said, I am sad, I miss Aaron!
PARADE!




She soooo wanted to be picked for Jedi training, but sad to say they only picked four girls that day the rest were boys.... hmmmmmm, she was not happy with that outcome and told us she would only give it one more time and then she was giving up on being a Jedi.
Eric had some father and son time one afternoon while Mommy was at work and London was at camp... they went to the Zoo.



Sorry its been so long since a post, but as you can see life is happening here at the Lindsey household, and we are busy enjoying it :) Love and miss you all bunches!!
Thank you for all the wonderful birthday wishes for Ewan xoxo
