the girls went back to school on monday. it's been rough getting back into a schedule. i miss the lazy days of summer.
avery is now in kindergarten! our schools have dress code (solid color polo shirt). avery was a little bummed she couldn't wear a princess dress to school on the first day.
second grade...
...and our big sixth grader!
this was our second year to spend a weekend at a cabin in toledo bend state park. we always have such a fun time, despite the 100+ degree august heat. the first afternoon/evening there, we took the kids exploring, played at playground, and checked out the lake. because of the drought, the lake was nowhere near as full as it was last year. so sad :(
evan cooling off in the water and loving digging his hands in the sand. we just stripped him down to his diaper since his swim trunks were at the cabin
we spent almost all of the next day swimming in the lake. it was very cool and refreshing, especially out deeper.
grammy and elayna
cousins :)
in the evening some of the bigger kids went fishing and caught some fish. evan didn't go along but he loved pretending with elayna's pole. i think we need to get him a little fishing pole.
it was so nice to have one last little vacation before school starts on monday. the summer went by WAY too fast!
avery lost her first tooth last week! she was sooooo excited for the toothfairy to come. and she has two more that are about ready to fall out!
so i am really not a fan of having my photo taken when i'm pregnant, but it is fun to document the growing belly. since i forgot to do a 20 week photo, here's the bump at 30 weeks. i am big as a house, and still have 9 more weeks to go!
