September 12: Happy Birthday Momo!

On Saturday, we went to Momo's 80th birthday party


Jax and John:

Sara liked to push Jax.

Baba and Mick

Watching Momo's birthday slideshow:

Of course, Sara helped Momo open her presents:

Sophie and Sara play really well together- of course, I couldn't get a picture of Sara...

and Nonna showed Sara this Cinderella dress she made for her!! See, those bridemaids dresses are good for something :)

Sara loved it!!!

Septer 11-12: Amie & Paw-paw's

The kids and I went to Amie and Paw-paw's Friday night. Amie fed Mick some yummy squash...


And Paw-paw played castle with Sara
The princess was eating the puffs...


Mick crawled around a little- isn't he the cutest?!?
Mick and Paw-paw was ready for game day on Saturday!


I got these pictures while we were waiting to go to Momo's party:

I really wish Sara would take a decent picture occasionally (oh well)...

September 9-10: Around the House

The rest of the week was quiet for us... we had a friend come play:


Mick had some yummy rice rusks (whatever that is...)

And Sara practiced her dance moves (Sorry I don't have a better picture of this... you know Sara!)

September 8: Sara starts school!!

Can you believe that our little baby girl is officially in preschool? She was pretty excited! We tried to get a picture before we left (of course the prince and princess had to be in it!)




Here the prince and princess are posing!

Ready to walk to school!

The prince and princess were pumped for school too (but they had to stay in the stroller!)

While Sara was at school we went to the grocery store. Mick sat in the buggy like a big boy :)

Sara had fun at school! She was covered in sand when we picked her up (there is a sandbox on the playground!) I think she learned about helpers because for the rest of the day she insisted on being my helper. She really wanted to be my helper while I fed Mick dinner:


I'm not so sure what Mick thought. It was a great day! Hope your's was nice too :)

September 7:Playing with Anna

Today we went over to Anna's to play. Sara and Anna really play well together! They had so much fun! The girls danced:


And checked themselves out in the mirror

And played in this fun rolly thing!




September 5: Shreveport

On Saturday we went to Shreveport for Granpa's birthday :)
Uncle Farrell brought Sara this parasol- she LOVES it! She can even open and close it all by herself!


Aunt Martha and Sue had lots of surprises for Sara- she was so excited! Thanks Aunt Martha and Sue :)

September 3-4: around the house

On Thursday morning, Sara wanted to watch TV and I guess she though Mick needed a blanket too



Here's a video of us playing:


We have a world map on the wall in the playroom and we've been trying to teach Sara the continents. I think she got a little embarrassed when she saw the camera :)



September 2: Carrots

Also on Wednesday, Mick tried carrot for the first time. He was so excited about it:


Carrots are a hit!


Yum, this hand sure tastes good

September 2: Zoo

On Wednesday we went to the zoo with some friends.  Here are some pictures (sorry there aren't any of Mick- he just chilled in the stroller!)

September 1: Checking out Preschool

Today we took Sara to her preschool to meet her teacher and see her classroom. She loved her classroom and was particularly impressed by the small potty and sink. I guess we don't think about those things :) School starts after Labor Day. I think we're all looking forward to it! Here are some pictures of Sara before we went:



In other news, Sara conducted her first Google search- it didn't go too well :) She thought she was e-mailing her imaginary friends (Gooky and Gaby)
