Back to School Already

Again, it has been a month since my last post.  We have been having lots of fun with the computer system and I managed to delete most of my first day of school pictures as well as our trip to Iowa.  But let me give you what I got.  Here is the group shot: Patrick (7th), Rebecca (5th), George (3rd), and Cecilia (K) all ready for school while Mary and Tilly stayed home with me.

Becca also decided to run Cross Country this fall.  This was her first meet about two weeks ago.  They had their 6th meet on Tuesday in which Becca ran for the varsity team.  She's not the fastest but her potential is good.  Patrick's running has been up and down but he did well on Tuesday and I see him doing well if he puts in the effort.

Too bad George doesn't like Tilly.

With nowhere to go, Mary has been potty training the last two weeks.  She is very good about getting the pee in the potty but still apprehensive about the poop.

George is following both families traditions and has an over crowded mouth.  This week he had 4 teeth pulled out to make room.  He did amazing!  I enjoyed his conversation while still under the influence of anesthesia.  They wouldn't let me take pictures.


This week at the XC meet, Mary and Lia made a friend from another school.  Thank God they aren't shy! 



















I didn't know Mary knew how to play Ring-around-the-Rosie.


Mary wants to have her hair done like her sisters and always asks for two pigtails, which she pulls out within 10 minutes.  Yesterday I decided to do it a little differently.  Becca said she looks like a unicorn.
