Time flies! August was a busy month for us. We celebrated Ben's birthday and our 8th anniversary. Both were fun celebrations, with family and friends. In mid-August, Nettie started the official kindergarten class at her day care. They have an accredited private kindergarten so we will have a choice next year whether she repeats kindergarten or goes into first grade. So far she is enjoying class, and loves her teacher Ms. Bekah. John is talking up a storm. He repeats everything and is now learning how to ask for things nicely. It is funny how Mommie and Daddy don't hear when you don't say please! We are starting to work with him on using the potty, hoping that by the time he is 3 he will be potty trained. He isn't a fan of it yet, but he will get there. We also got to go to the farmer's market at Belmar where the kids got to ride in the train, that is something that we will definitely do more of next summer.
We are looking forward to celebrating Nettie's birthday next month, Cousin Lily turing 1 and cousin Luke turning 4.
