The Week Before Kindergarten!

The week before school started was fun and busy!  Carl was in Florida for work so Mom came to stay with us a couple of nights!  We had Meet The Teacher/Popsicles on the Playground on Tuesday night.  Lucy's teacher is Mrs. Moss.  It was such a fun surprise to find out that there are 3 little girls  and 2 little boys in her class that she already knew!
On our way!!!  
Go Stallions!
 Class list posted outside!
 Lucy and Ms. Moss
Posing with Charlotte...so fun that they are going to be in the same class!
On Wednesday we went to my friend Carrie's house so she could take pics of our kiddos in the new school spirit shirts to advertise for the school's Spirit Store !  The girls had so much fun modeling :)
I snapped this with my phone during the shoot!
Lucy, Gracen and Lily
On Friday we had back to school pics with my friend/photographer Betsy!
Here are the proofs!
On Sunday we went to church...
then Lucy and I spent lots of time snuggling the rest of the day :)
That night we all curled up to read "The Night Before Kindergarten"!

The Last Weeks of Summer

The past couple of weeks we have been so busy squeezing in as many fun things and play dates as we can.  And, of course we enjoyed spending quality time at home too!  School starts Monday for Lucy and I cannot believe Summer is almost over.
Lily is officially potty trained!  We did this last month, but I forgot to post!
This was the first time she got the toilet paper herself :)  She said "Is this enough, Mommy?"!
Lucy is always so sweet to share with Lily :)
I caught Lucy reading...love her little legs crossed!
 Sweet girls!
Lily LOVES to help Mommy and Daddy do "jobs"!  They were shredding papers.
Our painting day!
Their first day to BOTH go to gymnastics!
Lily's first day of gymnastics!
 Selfie with my sweet girls!
 The girls got to bring goldfish home from VBS!!!
 We went to the creek to let them go so that they could go live with their friends :)
We went to the Heights Aquatic Center in Richardson with Amy, Etta, Jill and Piper!
We have a new gymnastics mat at our house and the girls LOVE it!!!
 Getting our nails done!
 This little monkey loves to be held and would not let me put her down this morning!
Lucy has learned to take pics with my phone and captured this :)
 Pia took them shopping at the dance/gymnastics store to get new leotards and they just had to wear them that day!
 The girls went to "Camp Pia" the second week of August and had the best time!
