First days and Blake's boots

Sorry it's sideways (I was too lazy to rotate it on my camera.) Now those blue boots are very special around here. Lots of his friends have rubber rain boots (don't ask me why they sell them here). So of course he's always wanted some. Well, I've always wanted to get him some, but they are not cheap. I happened to see some on clearance for $5 at Wal-mart, when Blake was with me. They are a little small, but they'll work for now. HE LOVES THEM! Now he can be a Jedi, or Batman, or whatever he wants, all the time. He used to wear my Ugg (not real Ugg) boots around and now those are ruined. I'm glad he has his own now.
Blake's first day of preschool--second year now. The co-op is in its second year and it's going to be great! He told me he had to wear his hat, because "we wear hats to preschool."Her Kai-lan shirt from Grandma. She loves it! Especially because Rin-too (the tiger) is on it.
Better late than never! Here's Julianna on her first day of 1st Grade! (which ended up being Aug. 31st so we could spend more time at home potty training). It was also picture day, so even more reason to get her dressed up! I volunteered on the first day and got to stand next to the guy taking her picture and approve the smile! It was fun. I like her class and her teacher. I'm hoping it will be a great year. And I'm proud to say that this girl is a BIG GIRL! Only 4 weeks and she is fully potty trained. What a difference it makes around here.

Okay, this one made me cry. A LOT. Maybe that means I have some work to do. If you haven't seen it, watch it! It's a Mormon Message.
