What do you think?!?!?

Here is a recent comparison of the boys. I think they have grown to look so different. Carson has really become his own little (or big) person!

First day of 3 year old preschool...

My baby is growing up!!!! I am so sad at how much he has grown in just one year. I remember having to tear Nolan off of my hip crying huge crocodile tears on his 1st day of preschool just last year! This year he gave me a big hug turned around waving saying "bye-bye mommy"! This year the huge crocodile tears were mine! I can't imagine Kindergarten! Seems like it is all flying by and I am trying to hold on to every little minute of it! Here is my sweet Nolan bug on his 1st day of school this year...




Start your engines....

The Pinti boys took some time out of their daily lives to enjoy each others company and race real race cars at Lowe's Motor Speedway! Of course we took the kiddos out to watch. It was a great day. The older boys loved it... the smaller ones, they took it all in as well! The guys had a great time.

Ben... 2nd place racer!

And the slowest... Dave (go figure!!!)



The future Pinti-Hardison race team...

Tumble times...

Over the summer the boys enrolled in a gym class for toddlers at Little Gym. They had a great time. They had lots of fun activities for the kids. Nolan's class was geared towards sports...imagine that! Carson's class was a mommy and me tumble bugs class. It was a great way to get rid of some energy and have fun doing it!

Beach week, fun week!!!

The beginning of August we took our 2nd annual Pinti family beach trip. It was a BLAST! We had a few very special visitors this year... Mike's grandparents and Aunt Annette. It was so nice to spend some quality family time without the worries of real life! We had a week filled with great food, great company, and lots of memories! We anxiously look forward to next years trip! Thanks Grandma and papaw for a wonderful time :)

Get ready for picture overload!!!!
The house had a great pool with an attached hottub. The kiddos LOVED it. Nolan did so great swimming this year. He was so independent and more comfortable with the floats this year. Because the kids were not very fond of the sand and ocean we stayed by the pool the majority of our days... POOL FUN!!!!



















We did venture down to the ocean a few times. Carson liked the sand... in fact, he liked it tooo much! He had it on every inch of him and everyone around him. Nolan liked it for a few minutes then soon wanted to head back to the pool! The crew on the beach...












And my favorite picture of the trip...
