Jagger's Day (17mos)

So now that the girls are busy - Jagger is getting MUCH more time for boy things such as exploring & getting dirty:) I didn't have to take him in a stroller & we were not looking for Ella the whole time. This trip to the park was all about Jagger!!!


He somehow turned the water on all by himself!
He really loves anything with wheels - he also liked the tractor behind him - sorry I can't get this pic to flip :(

Oh yeah - HAVE to take a drink - right?!?!? He was so wet after this that he had to ride home naked!!! He had a BLAST!

He thought about this one a couple of times before he actually went. He did it on his belly with feet first & loved it :)

I did have a hard time keeping him from throwing rocks ....I'm guessing it might take a while with boys anyway...right? Isn't that the normal boy thing to do :) I'm sure a few more trips this fall & he will figure it out!

Oh MY, Oh MY, Oh MY

Our 3rd grader with her teacher Mrs Addcock

OH MY ~ Where did the summer go?!?!? I know I have pics to share but I'm going to have to skip ahead and let you share in the first day of school with us! First of all ~ ELLA BELLA KAY WARD is in KINDERGARTEN (tear) and GRACIE GIRL is in 3rd grade (tear again!)?? This is just crazy!!! They had a great first morning. I did notice several different facial expressions with Ella: pure excitement, curiosity, and just that silly look she has all the time. I am so sad that I didn't get a pic with her and her teacher - I just had all of my own emotions going on and forgot! I did not cry (some of you might not be shocked) but I SO wish I was there watching thru a little window right now! Gracie was really cute sitting at her table. She picked the "gold" colored table for MU to make her daddy proud. Gracie is a different girl at school - I wonder if Ella will be too??? I guess time will tell and as long as the phone isn't ringing then the principal isn't calling - right?!? :)
