I went to take some photos of a friend recently, and when I was clearing off my SD card I noticed I hadn’t even gone through the first day of school photos I took of the kids… “/ So, it’s time for a catch up!

It’s just super dark when it’s time to leave for school for our elementary, so the pics are all in the house. I decided to take before and after pics of them from when they woke up compared to when they were ready to walk out the door.

They were sleepy, but excited! Meredith is never this excited to wake up these days. She’s a bear in the mornings just like Josh.

Meredith is never this excited to wake up these days. She’s a bear in the mornings just like Josh. I pretty much just creep into her room and quietly give her her breakfast, and then try to slip off to work silently for Josh to handle her when she’s ready to get rolling. She loves kinder, but misses being able to sleep in.

Anna finally lost this one particular tooth that had been hanging on for dear life. I literally yanked on it with all my might and couldn’t get it one night, and it was super loose.

I literally yanked on it with all my might and couldn’t get it one night, and it was super loose. She finally managed to pluck it out one evening while she was watching the Simpsons. And Wallace looked so dapper in his collared shirt and glasses. :) I will have 2 magical years with all three of them in the same school…and then it will be a crazy rat race after that.

We had another fun season of soccer. lol

On this particular day she was annoyed because her legs were itchy under her socks…

On the whole though, Meredith did much better this season. She still likes to unexpectedly run off the field when she decides she’s done though. :)

Wallace had a pretty darn good season too! He didn’t insist on playing goalie the whole entire time, so it was nice getting to see him actually take part in the game more.

And Anna’s games were just about all at noon on the hottest days, but she hung in there and did great.

Then it was Halloween! We did the inflatable thing this year, and the kids had so much fun with it!

The girls were so cute. They did this little pose all on their own. lol

Fall was pretty nice around here. Hot, but nice. And busy. So glad it’s finally cooled off!
