Preppy Boy - Back to Preschool!

After patiently waiting for two weeks while Sissy had all the fun, Preppy Boy started his second year of preschool on Monday! Or, as he likes to call it, "Big-Boy School!" He will go 3 days a week, and is very excited (as you can tell from the picture! haha!) He is clearly not as excited about posing for pictures as his sister, but that's alright - at least I got one good one for the scrapbook! Last year, he went to preschool 2 days a week, and this year he'll go 3 days a week (which is pretty typical). On the way home from his first day, he was telling me all about it, and I told him that he'll get to back two more times this week! He smiled at first, but then his face fell and he said, "That's IT?!!" I explained to him that he can keep going all year - not just this week! haha!! I reminded him to do his best, play nicely with the other children, listen to his teacher, etc....

Let's just hope he doesn't actually do THIS at school!!

Elizabeth's new bob...

Here is a picture of Elizabeth's preppy new bob..we (and by we, I mean me!) are trying to grow her bangs out, and they are just about there! To try and be diplomatic, I asked her if she wanted to grow out her bangs, and she says, "YES!" followed by, "What are bangs?" Oh well, at least she really is happy with it! Less hair means less time washing it, which translates to less time crying about it while in the bathtub...I don't know about you all, but I wish I had someone who would wash my hair (without having to pay for it!) ha-ha!




And of course, you can't take a picture of one around here without taking a picture of the other... monkey see, monkey do, monkey says, "cheese!!"

"Cheese...!"

Oh my goodness...today during lunch, Elizabeth gave me her order for cinnamon toast (the kind with cinnamon & sugar SPRINKLED on it, not cinnamon bread!) and since I would never have made it as a waitress, I gave her the wrong kind! As she politely points out my mistake, I say under my breath, "Mommy's crazy..." and Andrew chimes in with, "Mom-mee kah-zee!" I grab the camera to try and get him saying this on video, because I think it's hilarious, and all he will do is say, "Cheese!" over and over, because that's all he ever does now anytime he sees a camera, or a cell phone for that matter...(because in our house, a cell phone is just another camera!!)

PS - did I mention this was lunchtime? check out the major bed-head...isn't he cute!!
