First day of Jr. K!


Yep, here is my little man on his first day of Jr. K. Big man on campus I'm telling you. He walked right into his new school and into his new classroom with so much enthusiasm. He is Mr. Independent and so outgoing. I love it! Daddy took the last day of his trip off so he could be here for his first day. What a lucky boy.









Hmmm... wonder what he is thinking here? LOL


This is definitely my photo of the day. I love love love it!






Putting his backpack up. He thinks his backpack is so cool!

Him and Miss Marilyn (his main teacher).



Jr. K Teacher gifts



Andrew starts Jr. Kindergarten today!! He is so excited to start a new school and to say he's going to Jr. Kindergarten. Plus he gets to wear a back pack and take his lunch sometimes. I made these little goodies for his new teachers. They are sort of a mix of two other projects I've done before. The teacher gifts I made last year used the nugget candies and then the containers were ones I used for the Blizzard Bites I made last year.

Pics from the big day will be posted soon!

"I'm just pretending to be a princess."

We had such a great time at my friend Jen's house yesterday. The kids played all day while the moms talked and watched a movie. It was the perfect Sunday afternoon. Thank you Jen for inviting us over. Andrew has a blast playing with Rhegan and Lily. When I asked him if he wanted to go to Rhegans to play with her and Lily he said, "Oh yes Mommy!! I do, I do! I just love those girls." Awwww... he is such a sweetheart.

So, we were watching a movie in the basement and the kids were playing upstairs when Andrew comes running downstairs for something and all I see is this green tutu flying. I giggled and asked him what he was doing and with the most serious look on his face he says, "Mommy, I'm just pretending to be a princess." LOL!! I took a short break from the movie to get some shots of the kiddos playing in the backyard. They are so darn cute and such great kids.






We told the kids the icecream man was outside to get them to look at the camera. Rhegan's look of determination is the best.
Rhegan and Andrew trying to location the icecream man. Hmmm...





Roly poly!! The kids mission in life after finding this roly poly was to find as many roly polys as possible.

It's just around the corner...

Fall this is. Here are just some pics I took the other night of us in the backyard. Lazy summer nights that I just realized will start fading away now that the cooler weather is on its way. This week is supposed to be gorgeous in the high 70's. But, I know all too well that cooler weather is just around the corner and soon we'll be putting away the shorts and flip flops and pulling out the jeans and uggs.

Andrew can hardly wait for the snow. He keeps asking each night if he'll wake up to snow. Just a little while longer I keep telling him. :-)

Have a SUPER Friday

Corny title? Yes. Sincere title? Of course! I don't have time for a full post today and since I haven't posted in awhile I thought I'd pop in and say hi. Since a post without pictures in no fun I had to include another one of the photos from Andrew's superhero photo shoot. I just love the sun flare on this one. Have a great weekend!
