off to kindergarten

Presley started Kindergarten on Monday. I wasn't too stressed about it since she had attended all-day Pre-K last year. She is now at Roberts Elementary and LOVES it! It's a HUGE school with 8 kindergarten classes. Her teacher, Mrs. Glover, is great and we are looking forward to a wonderful year.

* She's already taken her first trip to the school nurse after being stung by something on the playground. Last year, we made several trips to the nurse so it looks like this year will be the same.

Her best friend from Fair Park, Julianne.

Not the same teacher but they get to play at recess together.

We weren't up for a big family vacation this year and instead opted for a trip to St. Louis. The kids loved staying in a hotel and there was lots of fun stuff for us to do.

Still making time for afternoon naps.

In case you didn't get enough pictures in that last post, here are a ton more from our annual photo shoot with Mimi.

 

NOTE: The title of the post comes from the saying that the photographer used over and over to get the kids to smile.

 

bring on the crazy

I remember the year between 3 and 4 with Presley being the craziest...This is proving to be the case for our second born as well. Boy, he's lucky he's so stinkin' cute!
