| barbies after school with presley. |
 |
| homework with millie during caroline's dance class. |
 |
| our normal is to bring toys to the living room... the girls seem to play better when they can spread it all out in the living room. but that means i get to take it all back upstairs after a day or two of playing. not my favorite. |
 |
| her growth in reading has been crazy since starting first grade! |
 |
| fx family night at church! |
 |
| she woke up excited & ready for school! |
 |
| she did awesome... no tears at dropoff & a smile at pickup! i was shocked! |
 |
| her preschool has a private facebook page to post photos from their time ar school... love it! |
 |
| (millie's first day of preschool.) |
 |
| dressed fancy & ready for brunch out... at cracker barrel. with grams, gramps, & uncle chris. |
 |
| our girls watch too much youtube kids... came home from errands to a blind taste test challenge. |
 |
| millie asks for dognsuds every week after church... it's happened a few times this summer. |
 |
| finally went to wildcat creek park! it's been on our list all summer. |
 |
| should have worn swimsuits... |
 |
| first time climbing! |
 | |
| she was fearless going up the wall the first time... and then realized how high she was & freaked out a bit. she didn't want to trust the rope & come down, so the guy had to go up & help her. in hindsight, we should of had her go up just a small amount and then lean back & repel down. thankfully it didn't stop her from wanting to figure it out & keep climbing! |
 |
| g was so excited and looks forward to more trips to the climbing gym! |
 |
| and she had even more fun, because chloe was there too! |
 |
| it's been like 8years since i last climbed... i was worn out after a few runs up the wall- and millie went up like 30times! |
 |
| bouldering without ropes. |
 |
| g took this photo... love it! caroline was too young to climb, which was a bummer, but we will be taking her when she is 4! |
 |
| and finally a sleepover at chloe's! |
 |
| water fun, trampoline fun, & a cookout with grams, nana, & the metcalf girls! |
 |
| and this... it's preschool time for caroline! |
 |
| fun goodwill finds- justice, purdue, crewcuts, gap, & tea! |
 |
| she picked this leotard for her new tumbling class & it hadn't arrived yet from justice last week for her first class, so she wore one that i found at once upon a child... she was excited to wear it for her second week. |
 |
| fun with neighborhood girls... |
 |
| and then fun with daddy while i cleaned up after dinner! |
 |
| thank goodness they make a smaller jojo bow... she needs to be just like her sister! |
 |
| volunteering in millie's classroom for ipad testing. |
 |
| war in the hallway after they finished their test... |
 |
| she does not like undies... trying our hardest to get her ready for preschool. |
 |
| caroline likes to be more creative with how she follows the rules for our school activities... it drives me crazy. millie is so much like me, doing everything exactly as it needs to be done, and caroline not so much. caroline is definitely going into preschool knowing less... and i think that is ok. her teacher will be able to work with her. and i won't stop trying! |
 |
| homework on the trampoline with daddy. |
 |
| preschool open house! |
 | |
| she wanted to be held the whole time & refused to explore... exactly what i've been fearing. i've been nervous about preschool all summer. she is super attached to me & is a homebody- and hasn't been super excited by the idea of getting to go to school. one great thing... her teacher said that her still wearing pullups isn't a deal breaker for getting to come! |
 |
| justice has the cutest active clothes... and they always have dance along with lots of sports. |
 |
| listening to songs on an ipod while she cleans up isabelle's stuff... loved spying on her- and hearing to her sing along! |
 |
| she was talking so loudly with the headphones on- millie & i were cracking up! and her singing along to 'let it go' was the cutest. |
