Day One at Laurel Hills

Kindergarten hasn’t started just yet, but today was the first day of Brian’s after school program at Laurel Hills!  We thought it’d be good for him to get used to it, so we picked him up from Goddard School early today and brought him over.  I hope he will have a good time there!  When we got him at Goddard, they were having a bit of a goodbye party for Tyler B.  It seems all the kids are bringing in a treat for their last day in class, I guess we will do the same!  We went...

Pool Party, Kite Flying, and Bollywood!

Must be a summer Saturday at our house. 😉  Whew, it was another packed day full of fun.  First off, Brian went to Lowe’s Build and Grow and made a cool El Macho plane, from the upcoming movie Planes.  You can see he went in his swim gear, because right after that, it was off to Tyler B’s birthday party.  It was a superhero theme this time, and Brian got to make a cool mask, and got a Batman towel/cape to keep!  I stayed home with Kendall, and we had a nice time relaxing and...

Brian’s Pear!

Brian loves to get the big bags of green pears from Trader Joe’s.  Today’s pear was special–it still had the stem and leaves!  He asked me to take this picture of it, and said it was delicious....
