Brynn's Grandparent's Day Celebration

Rich, Kate and I went to Brynn's grandparents Day celebration at school today. Her class sang songs and did little motions and it was just adorable. Here is our star, who by the way had this outfit picked out for weeks. She did great!  Not one tear and she stayed on the riser!  Our girl :)

21 Months old!

This guy is 21 months old today. 21 months!!!  I told him this morning, you only have 3 more months of these pictures every month. But he loves the bear and the camera so I don't think he minds too much. He's talking up a storm and trying to do things to make people laugh now. I wrote this last month but he really does have the greatest personality. He's still not eating a ton but he's so active he really doesn't want to sit to eat. I have to keep reminding myself how old he is and that this is normal. He absolutely loves to color. Loves. Colue!!  That's how he says it. And now when anyone sneezes he yells "bless you!"  Such a sweetheart. He's now telling us who does what to hi at school too. I can't believe that in 3 short months he will be 2. Ahhhhhh

American education visitation week

This week at Kate's school is American Education Visitation week. We had 45 minutes to go to her school and listen to a poetry reading by all of the children. Kate did an awesome job!!!

Hanging around

We have been pretty low key for the past few weekends. Kate is done school now until Dec 2!  Brynn and Chase have 2 1/2 days next week. I can't believe it is Thanksgiving next week!  Unreal. Here are some recent pictures of everyone. 

Full heart

Kate wrote this letter to Brynn (and Chase too) tonight. This makes my heart feel so full and so happy.  They really do love each other so much. 

Brynn's family project

Brynn presented her family project poster today. We took the pictures and put them on the board. She even cut some of them herself and she also put all of the stickers on. She picked out her own outfit and was so excited this morning. The note when I picked her up was hysterical. I'll post a picture of that tomorrow. So proud of this little love.

Straight hair

Kate has been asking to have her hair pulled straight.  She was off today & I took the day off & we did it!  She looks so old!!

Bee of the Week- week of October 28th

Kate's classroom theme is bees.  So, each student gets a turn to be bee of the week. On Monday, she brought in a poster that we decorated that was all about her. It included family pictures, vacations & all of her activities.  And, her friend Madison.  On Tuesday, she brought in her favorite book to read and chose a Halloween one.  On Wednesday, we wrote a letter for the teacher to read to the class.  The letter was all about how Kate was so special to us.  On Thursday, she to to pick the game for the class to play and on Friday, everyone wrote a friendship book about her.  So sweet and she loved being bee of the week!
