If you give a kid a camera

You know the children's book "If you give a pig a pancake?" Well in our house if you give a kid a camera......you get this.
Nostrils!
Look Ma, my toes.
I'm a ham for sissie! Cheeeese!
Look at me, Look at me.....
look at me!

Happy Birthday Princess Brynlee

Brynlee had a great time at her birthday swim party at baby grandma and grandpa's house. She had a great turn out of cousins and friends and it was a lot of fun. Thankfully for mom and dad it's over. In 11 short months we can stress about it all over again.
Her favorite toy from mom and dad, a dog that swims. I personally dig his goggles.
Opening presents is always the time to be mauled by the other kids. Thanks for requesting Scooby- Doo at 17 uncle Josh. Grandma is still using it to this day to make cute yummy cakes. Or if guests prefer they can enjoy a Scooby Snack. Becasue who doesn't love Scooby Snacks!
Cute Birthday Girl.

Back To School

Well it came and went. The first day of first grade. Brynlee did great. We are so proud of her. She marched right in and made herself at home. Mom had to take the rest of the day off. I don't really know why but I was extra emotional about it. There were some tears and none from Brynlee. Brynlee's favorite part of first grade so far is LUNCH! Big surprise as much as she likes food. She was so excited to tell me on the first day that she had nachos and loved it.

Already?!?!

Holy cow! Brynlee got a letter in the mail last night from her first grade teacher. School is starting August 21st. I can't believe the summer is over in two and a half weeks. It seems like we just wrapped up Kindergarten. We have not been reading or practicing writing nearly enough this summer. I also very brilliantly agreed to be the class captain for her teacher. That means I am in charge of scheduling and organizing the parent volunteers. I still can't believe I said yes. I guess if I'm lost for few months you'll all know why. As soon as I figure out how to get some pictures on here I'll post a few of Brynlee in her school uniform. I think they are so cute. Do you all remember how long the summer break felt when we were kids? I want that back. It sucks to be an adult. Speaking of "that sucks." Apparently we say that too much because Beckham has taken up saying "that sucks." It's pretty funny. It's not very apporpiate but I laugh because he could be saying a lot worse.
