Second grade :(

So here are pictures from yesterday----when I took Carter to his first day of second grade. His teacher is Mrs. Rugg & came highly recommended from his teacher last year (who we just LOVED) Mason has an assesment next week and starts his KINDERGARTEN on Sept. 2nd ---YIKES!!! He is way excited and can't wait until he can go to school just like Carter

On a fantastic toddler note (which rarely happens!!!) Jack has been TOTALLY potty trained for a week now. I told him that he was going to a preschool when Daddy went to school next week and that they wouldn't let him have diapers there. So he immediately puts on a pair of underwear we'd bought him months ago and has not had any problems w/ going to the bathroom (both reasons) ever since---- its a total miracle. I've gone through potty training three boys now and there is something of a HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF the moment the decide to do it and you don't have to beg or bribe or coerce or anything---its almost MAGICAL! I am SOOOO glad to only have one baby in diapers now! HAHA!

Here are some pics of Carters big day & regular life for the rest of us.
