Hat, hat!

The other morning I walked away from Gavin for a second while he was feeding himself pancakes.  As I came back into the kitchen, I was shocked to see him sitting there as proud as can be with the plate of syrup on his head as he was repeating, "hat, hat."  I guess the shape of the plate did sort of look like a hat, but needless to say I took the plate right away and then... I grabbed the camera for a great big smile.  Yeah, great teaching moment.  "Don't ever do that again Gavin, but look at me and smile." Oh well, he was too darn cute and it was bath time anyway.  

Back to school

So here is an updated post finally!  Except I had to take this picture with my old camera, which is so slow that it almost made us late for school!  (Just giving Kimberly a hard time for not sending my camera back to me yet.)  I know, it's our fault for leaving it in Idaho.  Anyway,  so here is a picture of Jake and Kailey the first day of school.   Their first week of school went great. Jake is so excited about his "bear points" that he can earn for good behavior and Kailey is excited about her behavior chart that she gets a stamp on each day. She even said she wanted to go to school on Saturday.  That really surprised me.  I just hope they keep up their enthusiasm, we'll see...

"Back to school 

Back to school

 to prove to dad 

that I'm not a fool

I've got my lunch packed tight

my shoes tied tight

I hope I don't get in a fight

Oh, back to school

back to school"
