first grade. first day.
our summer came to a screeching halt this past sunday night and on monday morning, we were thrown back into the world of packing lunches, rushing to get ready in the morning, checking homework folders, car pick up lines and stop light behavior management plans (“were you on green today??”)… isaac requested that he wear […]
our boring summer…
not much exciting happening over here. we’ve had the girls a lot, which limits our ability to get out and about. and drains us for our days off, so that we wind up just lounging around a lot. needless to say, our to do list hasn’t even been dented. here’s some noteworthy (sort of) pictures […]

(shorts and sneakers are too small. sigh.) and we snapped some cute pictures before i sent him off. cute picture one. cute picture two. with curious onlooker. […]
