Well, another year is almost gone! Things are great at the ToddPod Pad. Our "IN-SCHOOL" routine is running smoothly, holidays are on the way, the boys are growing like mad, and we are all well and healthy. Adam is spending some time at the hunting camp making a deer utopia so he can come later and shoot one. He is staying in touch with his inner hunter while I maintain my role as gatherer.
Steve is still with us. We have tried to release him several times but he just runs up Sam's leg into his hands no matter how far away he goes. I am hoping he'll get twitterpated and wander off into the sunset with a foxy lady squirrel and live happily ever after.
Samuel got chosen for Jazz band and will play in both the 7th grade band and jazz band at the winter concert this year. I'll try to post a video of him playing soon. He whistles tunes constantly. It is cute. He is 12 now and quite a handsome young man if you ask me :) He has chosen to do his science fair project on energy production using salt water. Last year he won first prize in the botany division for his experiment with crude oil and it's impact on the growth rate of collard greens. He placed 4th in the county and had his project displayed at the University of South Alabama as well. We are proud of him.
Gabriel Thomas made it into the gifted program and attends P.A.C.E. courses weekly to supplement his lessons. We are going on a trip to the Mobile Museum of Art with his gifted class in October and he is very excited. He also learned to tie his shoes this weekend and if you are on our FB friends list you had the opportunity to see his prize: a 3 layer chocolate cake! He is growing like mad and is our sweet huggable Gabe as always.
Other than being fat and happy we have no great changes to report and that is just fine with us! The weather is fine and we are enjoying playing outside whenever we can.
