Happy 100th Day of School!

The perfect addition to morning face/hair?  A grape juice mustache and cereal in the teeth.

Oh my goodness!!
  Please ignore my new mom loveliness, and get a good look at that tiny little baby Shelbi.  I remember thinking how crazy it was that this baby was MINE.

  Whenever I open my photo files to put a picture on this blog, these are the pictures that oddly load first.  These are from a random day when we were messing around with Photo Booth on my computer.

  I had really good intentions to take pictures of Jeff helping the boys learn to ride their bikes today.  But that didn't happen (the picture-taking, not the riding lesson). The day was so nice we spent a little extra time at the school, getting basketball shooting tips and mastering the hopscotch.

The Cha Cha turns three!



Three things I don't want to forget about Bailey at this age:
1. If you call her anything besides her name ("Cha Cha," a "good girl," "Goofball") she'll say, "I not ____, I just Bailey!"
2. She can't say her Rs.  If the R is at the beginning of the word, it sounds like a Y (Yian for Ryan); if the R is in the middle of the word, she skips the R sound altogether (imagine how uncomfortable it gets when she talks about her shirt in public).
3. She has made up a game with me where she'll sing a question in an imaginary microphone, then hand me the microphone and expect me to sing the answer back.
  Despite being utterly spoiled and adored by all in this family, she is very sweet and good-natured.
