All Wet

Heavy rain on Friday, these three played outside until they were soaked and cold.

Not Quite Artwork

Z and M admitted to drawing all over spare mattress in their room and back of BB's stuffed rabbit.

Saw this marker holder idea in a book, using plaster of Paris (saw another version using cement) in rusted cake pan. Being able to keep track of markers at a glance appealed.

Toad

Having feast on bugs that populate our entryway.

Favorite Things

M supposed to cut out pictures of favorite things and paste to T-shirt shaped paper, will be used as conversational piece in class. Gone is her devotion to Qiao Hu, she only wanted pictures of Zorro and X, was reluctant to take picture of sisters.

Little Man

Felt Doll

M's First Day

She changed her shirt three times before deciding on that one.

M2 didn't want to smile for the camera.

Morning driver is Ed. There were maybe five or six other kids on the bus, though that'll change before long.

In the afternoon, M was the only kid on the bus. That'll change too, but not much.

Her favorite part of the day: getting goldfish crackers for snack. Does she want to go back tomorrow (Tuesday)? Definitely!

What...?

While waiting for the school bus:

M: Daddy, your car's pumped up like a hamburger!

Like the Big Girls

Carrots

And a bowl of cherry tomatoes.
