I Turn Around For ONE SECOND.....

and this is what I find...ALL THE TIME! My little man is a mess, A MESS, I tell ya! But, he is the sweetest mess! He loves to climb on things he shouldn't, crawl in places he shouldn't and try to squeeze himself into things that he KNOWS he cannot fit in....and he loves it! He sure does keep us on our toes these days and since the girls are back in school now, he has half the day to make a mess all by himself. He is the funniest, sweetest and most adorable little boy in the world! I LOVE YOU ETHAN!

The First Day of School! (a month late)

So here is the first day of 3rd grade for Kyleigh and 1st grade for Marleigh! They were really excited about starting school, so they got up really early that morning. They had already picked out their "first day outfits" and they were ready in a flash. So we headed off to school to find their classrooms, but we stopped on the way to get a biscuit for breakfast...yummy! When we got to school, it was like a mad house. People were everywhere. There was a big "mob" of people trying to get in. It took us a while to get in, but when we did, we decided to take Marleigh to her class first. On the way, we had to stop and see her teacher from last year, Mrs. Glenn. She ran up and hugged Marleigh and told her how cute she was and then made Marleigh promise that she would come see her everyday on her way to her new class, since it is right on the way. Marleigh agreed, and then we were off to 1st grade. Her new teacher is Mrs. Byars and she seems really nice. At Meet the Teacher, which was a few days before, all the 1st grade teachers were fighting over getting Marleigh in their class. She wasn't already assigned to a class, so then all the teachers were saying, "I'll take her" and "No, I want her in my class!" It was kinda funny, but Mrs. Byars got her. Then one of the other teachers (Mrs. Garrett) came up to Mrs. Byars and said, "Hey, I wanted Marleigh in my class!" Mrs. Byars just said, "Sorry, but she's mine!" It was funny! Marleigh is such a sweetie that everyone wants her in their class. Anyway, so we found her new class, said good morning to Mrs. Byars, gave each other big hugs and we were off to 3rd grade. Kyleigh also wanted to see her teacher from last year, so we swung by to see Ms. Kickery for a second and then we had to go to her new class. Her 3rd grade teacher is Miss Jax. She seems really nice too. Two weeks after school started, she got married, so now she is Mrs. Drier. Kyleigh sometimes calls her Mrs. Washer and Dryer. It's funny! She got nervous when we got to her classroom and didn't want me to leave. It took me a minute to talk her (ahmm...bribe her) into staying. So we hugged and I promised that I would be back soon to pick her up. Then I went home where I found Jacob and Ethan still sleeping. Silly Boys! So, here are a few pics of the first day. They are showing off their new outfits and "Supergirl" bookbags and just modeling and showing off for the camera. These girls are soooo silly! They LOVE posing for the camera...can you tell? They could have posed all day, but I had to break up the photo shoot, so that they wouldn't be late for school. Kyleigh is pointing to a balloon that has her name on it inside her classroom. They both had fun on the first day and they both like their teachers, so everything is looking good for 1st and 3rd grade so far.
