First Day of School



So the first day of school was 2 weeks ago. I know, a little late, but better late than never. All 3 girls have new schools this year & so far, they all are enjoying them. I was so concerned if they would like it, if they would make friends, would they find the lunchroom, bathroom, and would they fall into a routine quickly and seamlessly. Well, momma needs to learn a lesson from my beauties, because they have transitioned so well. Not one complaint or whine about school yet. Addison loves her preschool, and in fact, she cries on the days that she does not have preschool. Is it too early for all day every day preschool??? Yes! Maybe not for Addison, but definitely for mom. The apron strings are still tied tight on the Redhead! Good luck girls for a fabulous year & I pray that you hang on to this wonderful resilience.

Great Minnesota Get Together






Our summer ends each year with a trip to the Minnesota State Fair. It is the best fair ever! We eat lots of deep fried goodies & we see things that we don't normally see every day. Francesca's favorite thing to see is the Butterfly House, and Georgia typically shys away from the butterflies. This year Georgia was really into catching them & seeing how many she could get onto her shirt. Hmm...I think it's weird, but the girls love it, so I keep my opinions to myself! Addison got to go on rides this year & the big highlight for me was that she is out of diapers & she stayed dry the entire day. Big milestone! We love the fair & we always leave wanting to go back. So until next year, we'll dream of corn dogs, cotton candy, and all kinds of fun.
