Leo got in trouble by the life guard one day and had to sit out for 5 minutes. This is how he chose to spend that time waiting.
Harrison and Leo both lost a tooth in July.
Say "cheeeeese".
Now scream.
The recent picture is Grace trying to get me to hold her hands so she can jump off the stairs instead of taking a picture. The one on the right was Grace's first Easter where she was very unhappy that I wouldn't let her eat a flower. I wonder how many more of this expression we'll see over the years!
This is the reason I desperately want the boys to go back to school....amazing teachers. Leo's first grade teacher emailed me one day saying that she had something for Leo and could we meet her at the school. Leo likes to use Oreos as his subject for a lot of his school work. She remembered that and thought of him when she was grocery shopping.
The boys had workbooks this summer to stay sharp on their grade level skills. They each got to pick a reward for when they completed it. Harrison finished his and has been enjoying his new Legos. Leo is very close to being done with his.
I tried to re-introduce the bar stools again. One second later Grace was sitting on the counter like she was posing for a picture.
My sister moved from Arizona to North Carolina (almost six hours away from us). We went down for a weekend to help her move in. The boys (especially Harrison) were such good helpers! Even Grace did what she could.
Lastly, Grace kept pointing to this mannequin and insisting it was me. This is humorous on so many levels!
Goodbye July!
