Lily's First Day of 1st Grade!

Little Bit is in first grade! She isn't looking so little anymore!! Lily has Ms. Lowe this year. She is a great teacher and Lily is very lucky to be in her class. Lily's 2 BFFs are also in her class, Julia and Elizabeth. She is really excited to have them in her class. Her favorite part of the day was recess. Today she came home and did her homework by herself. It was a writing assignment so we were very impressed. She did a great job! Lily has changed her mind from Kindergarten and now wants to be an artist when she grows up!

Zack's First Day of 4th Grade!

Zack is a 4th grader!! I can't believe it!! He had a great first day. He has two teachers, Ms. Wiggins and Mrs. Merrall. Both are fantastic and he is lucky to be in their class. He is really excited because he has lots of friends in his class including his best friend Mason. He said his favorite part of the day was seeing all of his friends. He also really enjoyed getting to change classes. He hasn't changed what he wants to be when he grows up. He still wants to be an athlete!

Beach for the Day

This post is a little late but we went to Surf City for the day a couple of weeks ago. The kids had so much fun! They loved playing in the waves. They also enjoyed building a sand castle.

OAP is 8 months old!

Olivia is 8 months old! I can't believe she is growing so fast. She is cruising around everywhere now. As long as she can hold on to something she will walk. She has the strength to stand by herself but she doesn't have the balance and is too scared to try. When we try to get her to stand she will crouch down. She still only has 2 teeth and has started eating more solid food. Her latest thing that she loves is chicken and vegetables. She still doesn't like sweet potatoes. She is very independent and strong willed! This week she has started clapping and is getting better at waving. We can't decide what her first word is because she has now babbled hey, da-da, and ma-ma. She has said these 3 words for a while now but she has just started using them in the right context. So we aren't sure what to count as her first word.
