Miscellaneous August

I need to blog Sydney's birthday and her birthday party, but before I do that, here are some random things that happened in August!

➹ Poppy had been promising the girls some fish for quite awhile, so one Friday, he surprised them with them! ➹

➹ We celebrated Reese's second birthday with a fun party at Peter Piper Pizza! ➹

➹ We celebrated Brooklyn's 6th birthday at Skateland!  I was SO proud of both of these girls.  It is not easy learning to skate and these girls were so tough.  At one point, I was helping Zach because he didn't have a little roller to help him, and so Sydney went on by herself. When I asked her if she wanted help, she said, "I'm not a baby, and I'm going to PROVE it!" She didn't take any help the whole time! We celebrated with a trip to Sweetie's! ➹

➹ Liv lost a tooth while eating an ice cream cone at Basha's! It was the EASIEST tooth removal to date!  She has another loose one now and is milking it for all she can! ➹

➹ The girls said goodbye {for now} to one of their favorite dance teacher's.  She had her baby boy on Labor Day! ➹

➹ Dress up is our FAVORITE!➹

➹ PHEW, we made it!  Thanks for sticking with us! ➹

Fun Fridays with Mommy

Now that Sydney goes to school Monday - Thursday, we have Fridays just for us.  Knowing how fast these days and years go, I am trying to take advantage of these days of just the two of us and do something special together.  So far, we have gone to the IDEA Museum, the Lego Discovery Center with Ty, a shopping and pedicure date with Mommy and Daddy, and JumpStreet trampoline park with Ty and Jake.  We've also signed up for a gymnastics class every Friday morning and she absolutely LOVES it!

➹ We picked up Riley after school, swam at our house, and then went to MOD Pizza for dinner! ➹

➹ This little crew is just the BEST! ➹

Thursdays With Poppy

When Olivia was in Pre-K, my dad would pick her up every Thursday and take her out for ice cream. Now that Sydney is in Pre-K, it is her turn for the ice cream dates with Poppy!

Poppy was in Hawaii last week, so I HAPPILY took over this duty! ;) 

LOVE this tradition!

Eight Weeks In

It is SO hard to believe that we are EIGHT weeks into the school year!  It's definitely hard going back to school in July, but I LOVE having 2 1/2 weeks off come October!

Here are a few pictures from the girls' first few weeks of school!

➹ Lunch buddies! ➹

➹ A couple of our bulletin boards we put together! ➹

➹ Red week was a favorite of mine!  #gohoosiers ➹

➹ Love these two sweet friends!!! ➹

And, I just love this picture.... Everyone in Olivia's class has a job, and they all get paid for their jobs.   The classroom has a little store where they can buy candy or little toys.  For the most part, Olivia saves her money, and when she does spend it, she spends it on coupons for things like sitting in the comfy chair or reading to her kindergarten teacher's class.  :) 

More Snapchat Fun

Oh man, we are LOVING the filters on Snapchat these days!!!
