So we sent the girls off to school yesterday morning. I had a little song in my head:"Ding dong, school is in, school is in. Ding, dong school is finally in!" Yes, I did do a little happy dance. I love my kids, but you know.
Syd is in 3rd grade and at a new school this year. It was really fun to go walk through Summit with her the other night. It is where I went to elementary and was a great blast from the past. Although I remember the bleachers in the gym being lots, lots taller than there are. Hmmmm. Syd's teacher seem fantastic and I'm sure Syd is in for a great year.
Brynn is in 1st grade and is now gone all day. I asked her what I was going to do without her home in the mornings and she said "I think you will cry lots, and then you can watch Super Why and Word World. It will be okay mom." This was all said while she was patting me on the back. Brynn's teacher seems very nice. We get to go over to the school today and help out, which will be fun. I'm glad I have the chance to get to know their teachers. It makes it easier to gang up on them!
I know this picture is a little blurry but I just thought it was so cute. Off to school they go! Both girls had a great first day of school and couldn't wait to hop out of bed this morning. We will see how long that lasts. As for me and Claire. . . well Claire misses her sisters. When they got home yesterday Claire started squealing and yelling "Hi, hi, hi!" It was pretty cute. As for me, well I got to take a nap yesterday. Yay for school!
As for other news, I updated my food blog. Can you believe it? I didn't mean to take the whole summer off from that, it just happened. So check it out of you are interested. The Orange Apron

So cute. Kind of makes me want to be back in school again. . .
Nope. Not really.
One more thing... How cold is it there? JACKETS??? Come on. Send that weather over here. Bart is surely sick of hearing me complain about the endless sweating.
I'm just glad it's not me anymore.
How exciting! For the girls, to be back with friends and school supplies (quite honestly, I miss them)... and for you, to be free to nap in the afternoons! I expect a Mindy-Becca-Babies day in the near future! ;)
Cute!! Your girls looked beautiful on the first day of school (as always!). School is so exciting. At back to school night I was the giddy one... i am with becca- the school supplies- the new clothes, new friends and teachers and best of all mommy nap time!!! Yay!
I'll console myself with Sid the Science Kid and Cyberchase. I plan on being just fine. It's cute that she gave you a coping plan.
Hi! Hi! Hi!
They look so cute and excited to be going to school. I am glad to be going back to school too. Next year will be even more fun because Savannah and I will get to bring Gabe with us too!
Your girls look so cute! I'm excited to check out your cooking blog!
