Rainy days

This has been a very rainy fall for us, but we have been making the best of it. Some of my friends and I took the kids out to dinner one night, I swear the hostess cringed when she saw 7 kids and only 3 moms walk through their door!

 

Enjoying a brief moment of the sun.



 

We have had lots of crafty play dates during the rainy days!



 

Even the dogs were getting bored staying inside so much. We watched way more movies than I want to admit.



 

Madeleine and I joined James for lunch one day at school. He loved showing her his classroom and friends.



 

The kids even helped us put together a huge 1500 piece puzzle! James was actually really into it.

 

 

 

Since James now goes to a charter school, there are no buses. We are lucky enough to have a neighbor and friend who also goes to James' school so we carpool. Every afternoon, Madeleine and I wait in carline for James and our neighbor and she is so good. She will bring books or dolls and always finds a way to entertain herself for that 30 minutes.



Madeleines first day of Preschool

Our internet has been down at our house for weeks so I haven't been able to post this, but Madeleine started preschool last month! She loves it so very much and cannot wait to come home to tell us what she did that morning. On her first day of school, she did not even look back when I dropped her off - just ran right in while blowing me a kiss goodbye. She such a social butterfly that even though she is the youngest in her class she is fitting in beautifully and having the best time.
