Another Week

Here is to another hot week in sunny Arizona!! I start preschool in like one week and since it is at my house now (boo hiss) I thought I needed to have some back to school decor for the kiddies, since I can't hang up my classroom stuff. My last installment of my seasonal blocks. I LOVE apples- probably a teacher thing, so I used that as my main "back to school decor".

I have been making these wall hangings each month and so I whipped up a cute school themed one. The flash reflected on the little chalkboard but it does say "Back to School". I did a few other thing but thought I would share these 2 =)

On Thursday we met up with my friend Nattie a went to that pool in Chandler that everyone loves. It was a neat pool but way to crowded!!! I didn't get a picture of Ryker and Brinn, Nat took them out for a swim while I watched our little snackers... Cami and Millie (they are only 2 weeks apart)

I {HEART} this picture!!! This is an outfit that is only wore at home because of its hidiousness but Millers spilled water (on purpose) all over herself so I threw this little number on. In the mean time she found this hat in her room (while she was taking all her clothes out of her drawers) and brought it to me, so I put it on and she wore it for like an hour around the house. She never wears hats and hasn't worn it since then. So Ghetto!!!

You know how kids play with the same toys for like a week then move on to the next thing? Well this week Ryker has played with his legos non-stop. His room is now called "The Fix-it Shop" and must be called that. He goes in there and builds all sorts of things then comes out and tells me what it is. He makes up these bizarre names for stuff and what it does. Oh and he likes to build guns and shoot all the snakes in our home. Yes he has an amazing imagination.

Everyday when Shaun gets home this is what our peeps want to do. So I finish up making dinner and Shaun gives them (mostly Ryker) horsey rides. Amelia holds on for like 5 seconds then purposely bails ship head first.... she is a crazy lady.

Amelia is 18 months and I don't think I have taken the classic messy face photo. Normally my kids are really clean eaters but they must have been starving or something.

Ryker sportin the pizza-stash

I was bitin' by the sewing bug and can't seem to stop myself. So I made 2 dresses for Millie. The red one is for our trip to Dland *shhh Ryker doesn't know about it* and I hope to find a black shirt for her to wear underneath. Then the blue/green dress I made real quick with and sort of made it up. I mean I saw the braided straps somewhere on a woman's shirt.

I just love the top on this one.

It turned out pretty cute but sort of looks like a big old pillowcase on her... oh well trial and error right?

Well Gilbert and Mesa schools start monday so I know everyone will be starting their new routine. I have one more week and then back to preschool preschool preschool. Life is good =)
