August!

Where in the world does the time go? I really cannot believe that summer is over and school begins next week. We have had a fun, action-packed summer and now it is time to get back on a schedule and the boys are ready to begin the new school year. Charlie and Tommy are especially excited to ride the bus together and spend the day with friends! This month I took the kids to Iowa to visit my family. My brother and his family from Denver were also there, along with my sister and her family from Omaha! It was a blast getting all twelve cousins together, going to the Iowa State Fair together, enjoying time at parks, in the backyard, riding on the plethera of bikes, trikes and other toys available at Grandma and Grandpa's, making smores, playing ball, washing cars, and playing games!

It has been fun seeing our extended Auge family this month, too! A family party and dinner with cousins has been the perfect way to wrap up our summer. We have continued to fill our days with park visits, zoo excursions and fun-filled evenings at Valleyfair! We have also encountered a challenge the Auge household this month. All three littles have started climbing out of their cribs during the night and during naps. I guess our babies have moved onto the next phase...Andy, Luke and Ellie are now active, healthy, independent, TODDLERS and doing just what toddlers are suppose to do. Our sports change with the seasons and we welcome soccer and football (a.k.a. - Fall)!!!
