First day of school...

i had to put the rest of my hilton head posts on the backburner for now since i am having computer issues

 

so i have decided to move on to the first day of school. 

 

3 of my babies were off to school this year!

 

i still can't believe it!

the big girls started 2nd grade and my little abbie started pre-k...
and the best part is she is attending pre-k in momma's school!  yay!!!

and here is our to do list on "the first day of school eve" :)

 

paint 30 toes and fingers

 



 

 

 

 write lunch box notes.
 

make sure lunches are ready
 

make sure socks and shoes are ready
 

and here are my girlies on their first day of school! :)
 

 

 

 

after dropping the big girls off mommy and abbie headed for our school. :)

we got to spend about 20 minutes up in mommys office before heading down to pre-k
 

signing in. :)

 

table top toys. :)



and here is she waiting for daddy to pick her up...
i bet you tell by the smile on her face that she had a great day!
 

this momma is so excited to have one of her littles with her at school this year!

more HHI... :)

hilton head part 3...
sophie and i attempted one more time to catch a beautiful sunrise.

and were finally successful! :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 and just for the sake of breaking up the 3452 beach pictures i will be posting
i thought i would throw in some pics of what the littles were doing when they weren't outside

ella and levi played a lot on our bed...usually with trucks and princesses. :)

  the little salso played a lot of memory! 
no lie that they played memory probably 2-3 times a day all summer. 
by the end of the summer sophie didn't want ella to play with her anymore
why you ask?
ella is freakishly good at this game.
adults can't even beat her! :)
 

we also did a lot of this over vacation.
we switched off between krispy kremes and dunkin donuts! :)

this year was really good for catching waves.
we had so much fun with our boogie boards!

 

 

sophie and ella trying to catch the fish in the tide pools (or tag pools as sophie would call them) :)

 

 

 

 

 

 check out the "E" :)

 

ok do you notice anything with this pic?
check out how creepy levi's shadow is!!!
it looks like a little troll with four fingers and a shovel!
 

 

 

 sophie found lots of little hermit crabs hiding in these tiny shells.
she tried to keep them as pets
tried being the key word.
:)

 

 

 

 

 

 

this started to become a ritual.
i didn't mind.
at all! :)

sophie and her daddy.

abbie doing her "mars needs mom" walk
you have had to see the movie to appreciate this! :)
 

 

and here is where i spent a lot of time over vacation.
sitting on the shore with my babies
this picture makes me happy. :)
