A September to Remember

September was busy and awesome and busy and fun, and so busy!  

Waiting for the bus.

What a rigorous new schedule we are keeping; time to pass out!

Oil change and playground run.

With a treat!

I love that my kids fall asleep reading.

Off to school!

Free cookies AND cupcakes at Giant: best grocery shopping trip ever!

The Browns are here!!!  Nico and Auntie Amber.

Holding cousin Nico was definitely a favorite activity.
 

Some aspects of being 2 are universal.

Sometimes it takes an ipad to bring us all together for a snuggle.

Quick foray into the wilderness.

Cousin Chloe getting her first taste of an awesome apple cider doughnut at the farm.

Kids. (Ha!  See what I did there?)

Cousins! Chloe(2), Isla(5), Brennan(7), Nico(6mo.), Kellan(2)

Chinese checkers with Uncle Tim.

Auntie Sarah and Nico.

The girls.

Relaxing.

S'mores!

Preschool orientation!

Overwhelmed, but got a nice snuggle from Ms. Deanna.

Upon first spotting Isla.

Elementary school pick-up.

First soccer games, in the rain!

Brennan gets a number this year!

U8 Academy.  Brennan is in the top row, 3rd from the right.

First day of preschool for Kellan!

Telling Daddy all about it.

Helping Mommy in the garden.

Soccer on a nice day.  Their games are all at the same time, so we've had some shuffling and carpooling going on.

Winding down in front of the tv.

GG and her great-grandchildren!

 

GG, Uncle Eric & Nico.

Aunt Dara & Nico.

Chloe & Kellan: 2 peas in a pod.

All tuckered out.

Taking advantage of a preschool morning for a little "girl time" with Mommy.

Sweeties.

It's cozy jammie time!

Isla learning that she was selected as one of the "citizens of the month"!

 
Kellan was really enthused.

Accepting her award.  We're all so proud of her!

Especially Kellan.

Soccer Saturday and more family fun!

Autumn arts and crafts.

Another Mommy morning out while Kellan is in preschool!  I think Isla is definitely seeing the merits of P.M. Kindergarten. =)
