Boots and Backpacks

Apparently, if your a kid there's nothing quite as exciting as a "cool" backpack and rubber rain boots! After we bought Tatum her new school backpack we could hardly get her to take it off...she would have slept with it on her back had we not coaxed her to hang it on her bedpost. She had to take that thing with her everywhere we went. It came with us to the grocery store, church, Grandma's...absolutely everywhere! Owen had to get in on the backpack frenzy too. Of course Owen likes and tries to do everything his sis does.


The boots were a gift from Grandma Vicki...Thank you! As you can see, those are a big hit too. My kids are puddle magnets, so they're a great and fun option for the weather around here. When I first puts the boots on Owen he instinctively started stomping his feet up and down. I have a feeling that it will take a little more than just the boots to keep him dry when he goes puddle stomping!

Your kids are the cutest! Ryan and Caitlin feel the same way about boots and backpacks! I need to get Caitlin one of her own - she always wears Ryan's Thomas the Tank Engine backpack and that causes BIG problems!

Hi Christina!
It's funny - Janet just bought Cole a pair of fireman rubber boots too!
Thank you for the nice message you left before we went to the hospital.
I finally posted a new blog with pictures of Tate!
Take care,
Lindsey
