Big Girl Teeth

Olive's been losing teeth like crazy. She lost two this week, which brings the grand total to seven.

Kindergarten

Last Tuesday our sweet little Olive started Kindergarten. She was crossing her fingers for Room 1 - and she got it! She's with a few friends from TK like Stella, Gianna, Tatum, and Evangeline. And so far - she LOVES it. Today was my first day volunteering and I have to admit - the kids are all pretty sweet. Now....what the heck can I do about that tooth? It's hanging on for dear life on one side....and we just can't seem to get it out. She's lost 5 already and there are 2 more that will be coming out any day now. (it's waaaaaaaaaay more than anyone else in the Kindergarten class...1st grade too!)

Life Lately

I still can't believe I have an almost 6 year old and a 3 year old. Olive started Kindergarten last week and has already lost 5 teeth. For the record 2 more will be coming out ANY day now. She's now enrolled in gymnastics and loves it. Her absolute favorite thing to do is cartwheels around the house. Buster is talking like crazy, with his vocabulary growing every day. The crazy thing is - he's getting easier and harder to manage at the same time! He wants to sleep with Olive or me pretty much every night. He's still the best eater ever and somehow makes me smile every day....even when he's driving me crazy.

Not So Little Anymore

Summer is officially over. Olive starts Kindergarten tomorrow and Buster goes back to preschool in 2 weeks. Time is flying far too fast.

Home Sweet Home

It feels like our house will never be finished. There are always new things I'm pining after or other items that need to be replaced. Here are a few of my favorite things at the moment.

Giddy Up Horsey

A few weeks ago I took Buster to Griffith Park to ride a pony. The last time we went - he absolutely REFUSED to get on. This time - there was a split second where I thought it would be another failed attempt. Thankfully, he pushed through his fear and stayed on! In fact - he LOVED it.

Glass Project

A few weeks ago I posted a picture of a colored glass wall that I wanted to try in our hutch. Well - it's almost completed. How pretty are all the glasses? I looooooove it!
