Dover #2

Nick went to his second Dover race this weekend, so many of these pictures will look familiar since he was just there in May. Seriously, what kid goes to a Nascar race on Saturday and a pro football game on Sunday? ONLY NICHOLAS FINE :)

Nicholas's First Giants Game

Nicholas went to a preseason game last year with Matt and Papa at Giants Stadium. Yesterday, he went to his first regular game with Mommy, Aunt Cathy and Uncle Mark. It was our first game in the new stadium, still called Giants Stadium to us! Here we are. Although they lost, we had a great time cheering on Big Blue!

And the verdict is....

... a star. A green star. Nick got a green star on his first homework. He is very proud indeed!



On Sunday, we walked out the door to church and I realized that all the boys were wearing light blue and khakis. They looked very handsome.

The two little guys.

The Finest boys indeed.

First Day of.... Homework!

Today was Nick's first day of homework. He was so excited to do it. I hated to break it to him that this was his future for the next 13 years at least. For those of you interested, he had to write a capital "A" five times, a lowercase "a" five times, and the number "0" five times.... here's to the next 13 years!

September is for Sports!

Go Giants! Go Seahawks! You guys know what we are doing on Sundays. But, there are a lot of sports we are interested in here at the Fine Household. Check out a few.

Thanks to Auntie Crista, the boys are bouncing around the house on their new hop balls!
Thanks Auntie Crista! We love you.
(Disclaimer-- I don't let my child out without shorts on in public, but when we are home,
diaper changes are a big fight and I lose after a clean diaper goes on!)

Auntie Crista spoiled Nick too and got him one as well. He loves it!

Right through the house, there they go!

Nick started soccer through our township.

He has grown a lot since he played last-- he was only 3!!

He has made 6 goals in 2 games. He is quite the competitor!!

Golf. It is an obsession since Ocean City's adventures with Golfin' Gaga.
It has transferred into our house and to Nate.
Watch out. The Fine boys are going to be famous somewhere!!

On that note, which Manning brother are you cheering for tonight? I keep dreaming of Nick and Nate playing each other in the NFL 20 years from now. That would be total awesomeness!! :)

Nick's First Day of Kindergarten!

Here are the pictures from Nick's first day of Kindergarten. We are very proud of him!!

The Farm with Friends

Nick has been in Oregon for the past week with his daddy visiting Papa and Gaga and the whole family. They are having a great time.

Nate and I have been having fun here at home just the two of us. We have our new train table to keep us busy, but we miss Daddy and Nick and are ready for them to come home.

We went to the farm last Friday to enjoy the beautiful weather and picked apples, corn, and peaches. We had a great time with our friends. Enjoy the cute pictures.

On the hayride ready to pick.
Emma is looking at Nate like he is crazy!

Picking our first apples of the season. Gala!

Nate and his apple.

Nate carried the whole bag "all by meself Mommy."

Happy with their bag of apples, now on to corn!

It is not as easy as it looks people!

Dragging the bag of corn back to the ride.

Best buds (does Nate not look like a true little boy here with Joe??!!)

Picking a peach (that he won't eat!)

6 lbs of peaches carried by this little man.
WE ARE READY FOR FALL!
