Forgot to post this series from a weekend visit post-labor day! Sweet times!

Just a few new advancements, mom.

No biggie.

Plus we had a Naomi sighting today. Going inside from recess behind a classmate with even longer hair! 

Friday shenanigans

Rain, rain. And all the splashing they could take.

Felt like an Olympic shot.  Bolt....and one of the other guys .

Standing at the window,

Readying for her own jaunts outside, splashing in puddles.

While big sis is away

What is this secret portal so often closed to me?

Busted!

Time for a walk, complete with refreshments. 

Feeling energetic enough to scooter. For part of a street anyway. 

Apple? Yes, please. 

Post-pick up errand with all 3. Lots of personality going on here. 

Leif calls me to his room for the "booful light!"

 And he was right. 

Back to walking day - checking out the ducks.

And straight up chilling, enjoying the view. 

Basically, we amuse ourselves until we collect numero uno.

First pajama day

Daddy does not approve, but since she's 5 it slipped through: pajama day!  And with that the first full work week wraps up.

Her mood improved throughout the morning.

I expect full giggles by pickup. 

First day of Kindergarten!

Prize day

The first prize after day one of no finger sucking, the hardest,  came from the UD bookstore. The next prize threshold was today and came out of my closer stache.

Even Penelope is very interested! 

Penelope chowing down on plum slices while Leif spells his name out loud. 

We have talked about many things in the past few days, related to N starting school. Most recently, "But what if my teacher thinks I'm boring?" Between guffaws, I have assured her that Mrs. Neimeyer will not find her dull.
