First Day Of School And This And That

Well, Hannah is wrapping up her second week of school already and Evan and Nora are finishing up their first week of preschool.  I am currently sitting in a quiet house while everybody is at school and while it is nice, I also miss them.  Evan and Nora are going three days a week this year and that extra day is a big change for them and for me.  I can't believe that this will be Evan's last year of preschool before he starts Kindergarten next year.

Of course we took the obligatory first day of school pictures

Little sister had to get in on the picture.....she is the only child that still likes to take pictures.  

And it gets a lot tougher to get everybody to look when there is three.....

A week later it was Evan and Nora's turn.  They both did great at drop off on the first day.  The second and third day were not as easy.  I know they are both fine and will have a great day at school, but it is never easy leaving them when they are crying.

Nora got really sad this morning, but Evan walked right in (even though he kept telling me all morning that he doesn't want to go to school).

I can't get enough of these cheese faces

And now on to a little bit of this and that.

Hannah wanted to make a dessert all by herself.  We had a box of some peanut butter no bake dessert in the pantry (that was already expired. ha), so I let her make that.  We weren't so sure if it would turn out, but the end result actually tasted good:)

I did not help her at all and she had to follow all the instructions by herself.  She got a little confused on some of the measuring cups and spoons:)

She wasn't so sure herself if this would turn out....

While Hannah was making her dessert Nora and I played with her sunglasses

Evan and I finally finished the Lego Big Ben.  This was really fun.  Evan surprisingly has a lot of patience for putting things together.  

We built a living room fort

And had an afternoon snack in the fort

This hair is just the best and like I have said many times, it fits her personality perfectly.  Just a little wild and crazy!

Evan discovered a folded up tailgate beer pong table in the garage.  He knew right away that it was some sort of game and he wanted to play it.  I told him that it's not a game for him, because he can't drink beer yet :).  Well, his answer was "but you can".  Ok son, I will go ahead and teach you how to play beer pong.

We set up the table on the ground and played with three empty cups.  He loved it and couldn't wait to show Scott how he plays beer pong.  Maybe we should just call it cup pong or so.  My friend Danae pointed out this morning that Evan is probably telling his preschool teachers this morning that he learned how to play beer pong with his mom:)
