First REAL Day of Preschool

SO, boys were off to a great start! here they all are walkin in....

And then they just get busy with new fun toys and friends!! they look like they're in the zone already. =)

Sydney had a hard time leaving them....she's pointing back to the room saying "G??" (which is what she calls both of them) and "Nooooo..." really sad-like cause she didn't get that they were staying and we were leaving. Poor lil pinky wanted to stay and play too!

Say BYE Sydney!!

SO we went off with our 2.5 hours of free time. Took our time getting groceries with one kid (amazing) and headed home for a bit. We had just enough time to tackle a minor project- our center cabinet in the island was a DISASTER, stuff was piled waaaay up and was totally unorganized- been drivin me crazy for a long time....so I was waiting for the right day to do THIS:

WOO! Built a shelf out of some scraps that were used on the fort downstairs! I love scraps. =) Anyhoo, looks SOOO much better and it was fun! Sydney was awesome without the boys...no one to bother (usually she's the one that starts the arguments) no one to take her toys, she doesn't care that the tv was off, she just played so well and came to check on me every once in a while. SO fun to just have me and her time. Then it was time to go pick the boys up....They are hilarious.


Check out how they're holding their bags. HAHAHA. WOW. anyhoo, I was asking them questions about their morning and I was getting opposite answers with little information. But they said it was fun! so whatever!! HA. On the way up I told the boys Sydney and I were going to get some groceries at the Martins, Garrett says 'that's REALLY far away! You could just stay and talk to the other mommies!" bahahaaa. YES, I could- (except for they all leave too) So then I start talking about how I can make friends with all the other mommies and Ethan says 'that's a lot of mommies!" started laughing again. OOOOH man they are hilarious. All in all it was a great day...Can't wait to see what else is in store for us Tuesdays and Thursdays!!

Labor Day Fun

So here's what I've been doing this long weekend......a little fun in Sydney's room!

so fun! I saw this online and thought it was super cute, but i had to reverse the image for the space and I added waaaay more flowers to make it more colorful! woop!! Thanks to mom for encouraging me to do it...I wasn't sure if it would be too much, but now it's on the wall so OH WELL! haha. Pretty soon we'll be changing her to her big girl bed cause I DESPISE the crib...just gotta paint it white and get some other cute stuff goin and she'll have a transformed room! If only I had ideas for the boys....they need some help in there. (I'm open to suggestions- hint hint)

UGH! I have mom's visit, preschool coming, Ethan's circumcision, steph and brad will be here in 2 days- soo many things to blog about- I'm gettin backed up. BUT! Emily gave us our CD of family pictures and I'm putting an album up on FB of them- so check there!! OK gotta go make supper!
