Bay starts another year of Preschool!

Yesterday was Bailey's first day back to school. She was so excited and has been waiting for school to start all summer! She had a great first day and was annoyed when it was time to come home! She's a feisty one! Apparently SWBy wanted to be part of Bay's back to school pictures and I'm so glad he did because I think it's such a cute picture of the 2 of them! Bay and SWBy are quite the pals! It's so fun to see them play together. Granted it's not all fun, SWBy loves to shove his sister and she has started giving it right back to him but for the most part they are cute together and it's fun to see them interact. This morning when I was dropping Bay off for school she went up to the door by herself and SWBy started crying because he wanted to get out of the stroller, and our sweet big sister turned around and said, "It's alright SWBy don't be scared!"








SWBy has a favorite pair of shoes! They are my red flats! Everyday he goes in my closet and puts those shoes on! I've given up on putting them away during the day because somehow they always manage to find themselves back out of my closet!

Bay turns 4!!!

Bailey had her 4Th birthday on August 23rd! I can't believe it! Time has flown by! She is so cute, she keeps asking me if she is still four. This year we did a friends birthday party on the 22ND and then our family party on her actual birthday. Her theme for her party was High School Musical! It was so fun! In the picture above SWBy is enjoying some of Bay's HSM birthday cake!
Here are Bay and her friends about to have some birthday cake! She has fun friends and we were so glad they could come to her birthday party!
So, I loaded the pictures backwards again! Oops! We had a pinata and the kids all got full bags of candy! I'm sure their parents were loving that!
Her pinata was the only non HSM thing at her party! She wanted the princess crown. Good form Bay!
The kids watched HSM2 while they ate, got their party bags, and while Bay opened presents. It was a treat to watch them help Bay open her presents. A few were so excited for her to open the present they got her that they told Bay what her present was before she even got it opened! Bay got lots of presents she absolutely loves!
These pictures above and below are from one of the games we played. We placed bubble gum on a plate and poured some baking flour over it. The kids had to get into 2 teams and without using their hands see which team could blow off the flour and get to their bubble gum the fastest and then chew it up! That was fun to watch!
The first thing we did at the birthday party was an obstacle course. We set it up in our back yard. They first had to crawl through the green tube, then go down the slide, then crawl through the yellow tube, then slip and slide, then jumping jacks in the baby pool, then make a basket, then putt into the whole! That was lots of fun! I hope the kids had fun because we sure did!
Here is Bay with her cake and her microphone! We got Bay a little head microphone to wear at the party. Well happy birthday, Bay! She had a fun birthday and everyone was extremely thoughtful of her! So thank you to our friends and family for making her day(s) so special!
