First Day of School & Misc September Fun

The girls first day was August 18th. They were a little nervous, but mostly excited for school to start. Hans had given them each a Father's blessing the night before, and that seemed to calm their nerves.

Mitchell started school a few weeks later. He goes to Mrs. T's pre-school, and no, she doesn't have a mohawk, & wear lots of gold chains! Her real last name is Polynesian and difficult to pronounce, so she has the kids call her "Mrs. T". :) Mitch really enjoys school & I enjoy the break it gives me, to get stuff done, or just spend some alone time with Claire.

Speaking of Claire she is growing up so fast. Here are some more recent shots of her. She is now 3 months old! It's crazy how fast time is flying by. I cried when she went up a diaper size.

This was so funny! It was labor day and it was raining off and on all day. We decided to stay indoors and make cinnamon rolls and watch movies. It ended up being a really great day. While making the rolls I noticed Mitchell had suddenly disappeared. I could hear him whimpering, but couldn't find him. Finally, I opened the door to our kitchen pantry, and this is what I saw.

Mitchell is deathly afraid of flies. Yes, you heard me right, the average everyday housefly terrifies him to no end. He frantically yells "Shoo fly shoo!" as he jumps up and down nervously. Well, this time he decided to hide from the fly in the pantry. Too funny!
