cardboard + clothes pins = gun

You know you have a boy when your two year old child holds up cardboard and clothes pins and says "I shoot you mommy."

First Day of School

Yesterday (August 10, 2009) was the first day of school here in Plainfield, Indiana.Here's a photo of my four kids.

Our little princess, who likes pink, went off to kindergarten on the school bus. She's in AM kindergarten so rides the bus to school with her 3rd grade sister and home on the bus by herself.

Here I am with my little girl when she got off the bus.

Last night she asked if she could go to school again. I'm so thankful that it's going well so far.

End of summer fun

Today I took the kids to The Children's Museum and The Indianapolis Zoo (we are members at both). The kids enjoyed the Take Me To Egypt exhibit at the museum and then we saw an elephant show and rode the ponies at the zoo. Fun, fun, fun. School starts on Monday. Oldest will be in 4th grade - I'm homeschooling him. The girls will be in 3rd and kindergarten at the local public school. The little guy will be three at the end of September so he's still just hanging out at home learning his ABCs and such.
