Max and Kira

Back to school!

Kira had her first day back to school at Max's school. She only cried twice- at drop off and during a fire drill when she saw Max (but was at away from him). She did not eat much, but she did nap loved all the new toys. She also came home and pooped in the potty! Potty training, we are not, but she does have the habit of announcing, "I poop!", and when given the option today, she ran to the potty. Big day for the little one!

"I'm so happy Kira is at my school," Max said before bed tonight. He was especially sweet to his little sister today.

Kira was so excited to wear her back pack, packed with "baby" (Hello Kitty).

Sensory play at school

She was happy when mom and dad (and Max!) picked her up, but she still wanted to play

Party bus

Just as the wagon was going to take a trip to Goodwill...

...it took a trip to the fire truck playground

Slide hair, don't care. It is so fun being Kira's play date!

From baby...

...to big girl!

Max has been having the best time at camp!

How is "camp" going to turn back into "school" in two weeks? Step 1: Remove water slide.

Max (completely submerged) and his three amigos did a team slide that Max relived all night long

"bacon bacon TURKEY BACON!!"

Bedtime

Put these two to bed by 6:40pm and they fell right to sleep. Catch up on sleep you two!

It's 3am he must be lonely

Max's room was covered in clothes when he went to bed last night. He was told that he had to stay in his room in the morning until his clock turns green AND until his clothes are put away. At exactly 3:09am this morning Max appeared in his parents room and exclaimed, "Mommy come look I cleaned my room!" He was wide awake and dressed for camp.

Clean as a whistle and proud as can be

Other memorable quotes from Max, the insomniac, today:

"Can you hear things when you're dead?"

"I want to be a police officer so I can drive a car with lights on top. But I won't put you in jail because you're really, really good."

Meanwhile this girl has the cutest nap head ever

Walk in the woods

"COME! COME!" Kira waves mommy (or whomever her lucky escort is) to follow her around and participate in all playground activities. She even made mommy sit in the swing next to her, not minding that no one was pushing her.

Max was exhausted when he was picked up from school but of course he got a second wind as soon as he got home. He set up his "office" and would not let anyone touch a thing. He also went on an overnight work trip to Richmond.

Ears!

Runaway bride

These are Max's "wedding clothes"

He begged mommy to put on her wedding clothes, but she kept her pajamas on and Kira became the runaway bride.

The happy couple off to the playground

Kira kept her hands in these pockets all day!

What goes around comes around

Can't keep his eyes off his new "rubber shoes". He even noticed that the sole on these shoes is different than his friends. How does he know what the bottom of his friend's shoes look like? Cross cross applesauce.
