Up, Up & Away

















Well it's been awhile again- sorry.
A few things that have happened since my last post:


Katie made Homecoming court!!! Congrats Kate! It is her senior year so there is the opportunity to be Queen- but she doesn't much care about that- she's just having fun with all the other excitement that goes with Homecoming- the float- the car...

Which is the other thing we have ALL been working on; dads '64 Corvette- it has been a lot of work- but A LOT of fun too! It has given us an excuse to spend time together. Mom's been making dinner and we eat right out by the car that way the guys don't have to completely stop working if they don't want to.

We have been bear hunting again- kill season is in full swing! We had some really good chase and even a missed shot but it was a fun trip! Gunner and I went up on Sunday and come home Thursday (I had to work Friday). It's a long drive when Gunner is in the back saying "mommy make it your song" which is Kid Rock's 'All Summer Long', and he would say this over and over again- and to keep him happy- I played it over and over again!

Our latest hurrah was flying in Grandpa Yeager's airplane. Gunner, Bob, and I went up- oh yeah and Grandpa- thought it would be a good idea to take him along :) Marcy went too but as you can see she didn't go up, she just directed air traffic- thanks Marcy! Gunner seem to like it, Bob said he was scared, but I think Bob was the one that was a little on edge. Gunner fell asleep as you can see! At first he said he did not want to go up again- but now his tune has changed a little, he thinks he would like to go up "next time".

Oh yes and let's not forget- Gunner is sleeping in HIS bed all night again. Yeah we battled with that for a little while but he's back into the grove again. Now potty training- I need to get some Cheerios. He doesn't really think he wants to use the big potty (or any potty for that matter), he tells me "maybe tomorrow, not today" it is pretty cute. I don't want this to be too much of a fight if he's not really ready then I will be the "trained" one not him- and I have enough to do- I don't need to chase a kid around and make him pee every 5 minutes!!!

Well that's about it I guess- enjoy the airplane pics!

Those pictures are so cute :) I can't believe you took him up in the plane! I would be way too scared! He is getting so big I can't believe it. In my mind I can hear him saying "not today maybe tomorrow" and it's too cute. Smile.
