Moving Over

My first blog was this blog, The Mitchell Family, about a year later I began blogging at Adoptive Momma of Two.  Since then I have kept up with two blogs often having posts overlap.  A month or so ago I purchased the domain www.adoptivemomma.com  since then I had contemplated merging my two blogs into one. 

Surprisingly, it was much easier than I expected to merge and I am now from this point forward only posting at Adoptive Momma of Two.  If you follow this blog and want to keep up with the Mitchells you should move over and follow Adoptive Momma of Two.  I will post about my family and provide info regarding adoption in this one location.  My life just became a little bit easier and more organized!



Hope you decide to continue to follow us!

Today

Today was nothing special.  We didn't do anything noteworthy.  We did however do this...

I take as many pictures as I can, even when we are not doing anything special.  These days are short lived and I don't ever want to forget.

Preschooler

We just picked up Brice from his first day of PreK.  It was a success.  He said he had so much fun he got to take a nap!  I actually woke him up when I got there to bring him home.  Considering it is raining outside and the kids did not get a recess today, he really must have had fun to be that tired.  Brice said he is excited to go back tomorrow.  Rogan on the other hand was not as happy about school starting.  On the way home this morning after dropping Brice off, Rogan sat in the back seat saying, "Bubba, Bubba?"  He missed his brother.  I missed him today too.

Happy Birthday Brice!

Brice woke up to a house decorated in balloons and presents.  After opening his presents in his pajamas, he headed out with his dad to the donut shop to pick out his birthday breakfast.  He will get to go to Toys R Us today and pick out a special toy and we'll eat lunch wherever he choses.  Today is Brice's special day, he's FIVE!

Wilderness Safari

Tomorrow Brice turns 5 years old.  Today, we took the boys over to Gentry, AR to the Wilderness Safari.  The boys had a great time and so did we, watching them get excited about the animals as we drove through the safari park.  We saw all kinds of animals and Brice got to ride a camel.
Here are the pictures from our big day!

So excited to head out for the day...

Rogan loves donut holes!

Helping their daddy drive through the animal park.

The boys loved feeding the animals.

Getting to ride a camel for your 5th birthday, pretty cool!

Children's Museum

Brice begins school next week so we decided to take a little road trip today to Seminole, OK to visit the children's museum.  We have a children's museum here in Tulsa, but it is lacking.  Brice had been to the museum in Seminole when he was about Rogan's age and I decided it would be nice to go again when he could do more and Rogan would be big enough now to enjoy most of the activities and displays.

The weather was rainy today so it was a perfect day for the road trip.  The boys had a great time.  They flew airplanes...

Demanded "order in the court!"  Notice Rogan the lil' bailiff in the background..

Played with trucks...

Worked on a race car (definitely their favorite)...

Drove a fire truck...

And dug for dinosaurs...

An excellent day.
