Emie is going to "Potty Preschool"

When I told Emerson I wanted to take her picture, she ran to the same wall where I took the girls first day of school pictures. She cracks me up!

I have decided that she needs to get the potty training pep talk. She is just barely turned two, but she has been telling me to change her. I know she understands a lot and may actually train before the other two girls did.

She loves making monster fingers.

Raaaaaarrrhhhh!!!

We will be heading out of town for a funeral. I hope everyone has a great rest of the week and weekend!

Micah's first day at Pre-K

Micah is attending a pre-k class this year. She goes every morning just like the Kindergartners do. She has been so excited to go. Today was her first day with Miss Tiffany. She loved it. Her teacher has some encouragement tools that I think will be helpful even at home.

I dropped her off bright and early. She found her backpack hook and desk all by herself. If there is one word she can read, it is her name. I helped her get situated and asked her if she wanted me to stay for a bit or go. She said, "Please Go Now!" Wow, at least Emie still needs me.

My last thought is...I thought I would be so excited to have both girls in preschool. I guess I forgot I would have to be the one up bright and early getting them ready and taking them there. What was I thinking!?!

Sloane's First Day of PreSchool

Today was Sloanie's first day at preschool. She kept acting nonchalant and uninterested in going. I even had to turn off her morning show three times before she finally would get up and let me take her picture.

By the end of our "photo shoot" she was smiling and ready to go.

When we got there she just sat down and got ready to play. There was no goodbye wave or one last glance for reassurance (from her). I was a little sad she was so independent, but I knew she would be fine.

When I picked her up, she had the biggest smile. All she did on the way home was tell me how much she LOVED it! One girl down and one more to go.

Another big accomplishment for Sloane was putting together a 70 piece puzzle all by herself. She has always loved puzzles. In the picture you can tell she is proud of herself, and we are so proud of her.

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like ....

Fall!

Melissa at the The Inspired Room is hosting Welcome To Fall Nesting Week.

Fall is my favorite time of year. I have started putting out a few things and I thought I would share them.

I bought a few of these tiny Halloween pumpkins last year. I love them because when October is over, I just turn them around and use them for November.


I have three little ones, so a lot of my decor is kid friendly. They have to be able to touch something.



This is my favorite display. I bought it a few years at ago 90% off. I am glad it was on sale when I saw it because I probably would have paid full price for it. Seriously, my unskilled photography does not do it justice.



My little secret...the pumpkin picture at the top of my post is really a fabric place mat. I saw it at Big Lots for $3.oo. I looked for more but they only had one. I loved it so I bought it and thought I could probably frame it. It is an odd shape and did not fit any of the frames I had. I came up with my own solution. Tack it to the frame, so here is the back of my "picture."
