School Pictures

School Picture Day - The day that most mom's sit at home and HOPE that their children will smile good and look nice. The anticipation subsides until you get that envelope... You slowly flip the envelope over and *fingers crossed* hope it is good.

SCORE!

Hunter has good pics this year! :) I will have to scan one in to show you...

So Impressed

I can not express in words how impressed I am with how much more academic Hunter has become. We made the decision to place him in Young 5's vs. Kindergarten this year b/c we just 'knew' he wasn't ready for Kindergarten. I know we made the right decision because he loves his teacher, his classmates and since the level of teaching is a little less intense, he has really come to enjoy going to school. He loves to draw and write 'words'. This is what the paper will say:

APTWXOVZ

and he will ask "Mama, what does this say?" :) I alway say some crazy non-word to make him laugh. But this is such an improvement because last year in pre-school he wasn't into it at all.

He is also drawing people with arms/legs/fingers/toes (sometimes big boobs -depends on the person)

He writes his name perfect now - I will have to take a pic and upload it for you all :)

His birthday is in 5 days! 5 days til he is 5!

The Story behind 'HunterPants"

When Hunter was in Daycare at the University of Michigan - Flint they gave him this nickname and it stuck! :)

Hunter Luke

Hunter is my baby. He was my first born and a dream come true. He was born on October 23, 2003 - about 14 months after we were married. He was a FAT FAT FAT baby and has since outgrown his chubby-ness and now is skinny-minny.

We are getting ready to celebrate Hunter's 5th birthday and the thought of it makes me want to cry... I feel like he is growing up way too fast!
