GREAT-grandparents

Gigi and Papa Sammie came to visit us the other day.

Regan and Grant were pleased.

How to have a happy heart.

Look at this picture 17 times a day.

Things I love about this picture:

• Grant's little rolls on his legs
• The way Regan's feet are curled up
• That Grant is trying to escape the cuddle
• Grant's hand on Regan's knee
• Regan's head on Grant's shoulder
• Regan's crazy hair
• Grant's double chin

Reading Rainbow

Did y'all watch that growing up? We did. Sometimes I turn it on just long enough to hear the theme song. (sigh)

Last week I took the kids to the library at the perfect time. We were honestly the only people in the kid section. It was great. It was also when most moms have their kids at home eating a healthy, home cooked lunch, but we had already eaten lunch with Daddy. And it was Fazoli's. Yum.

Anyway, here's Eric reading a nighttime story to the kiddos.

Grant was very interested.
How stinking cute are they????

Meet Regan.

She likes to wear heels.

She also likes her brother. His name is Grant. Regan likes her brother Grant to wear heels too.
Grant is happy to oblige.... for now.
Thanks for that, Regan.

FIrst Day of School

The kids started Mother's Day Out 2 weeks ago. Regan really likes her teachers and is enjoying being with her friends, especially Emma. Grant..... well, he didn't cry as loud when I dropped him off today, so maybe we're making progress??

Here they are on their first day with their new nap mats and school bags. Aren't they so stinking cute in their sunglasses and hat!?

One of the nice things about this school year is that I will have every other Tuesday off from cleaning houses. I'm looking forward to actually having some time to myself, especially during the fall when Eric works long hours and I don't get a break all that often.
