We spent the last couple weeks of August on the run, trying to get ready for the school year to begin. During the last week before school, I tried to make sure that the kiddos enjoyed plenty of time outside for free play and fresh air.
H3 and I also needed haircuts. I took H3 to a cute little salon for kids called "Divas N Dudes." Each salon chair has its own tv and kids can either play games or watch a movie. Some chairs are designed like cars. The waiting area had a train table and a little kitchen for munchkins. Best of all, the haircut was still only $16 for such a fancy arrangement!

| All pretty! |

| We started off the first school morning with chocolate chip pancakes. |
 |
| All ready for school! (That's a black bow on the left bun in her hair.) |
 |
| I consoled myself with a good cup of tea. |
 |
| H4 celebrated H3's first day of school with a peanut butter/blueberry jam sandwich..... |
 |
| along with broccoli and teething on a carrot. I should specify that she had a cute yellow dress on, but I had to take it off her to protect it from the blueberry mess she made. |
 |
| H1 decorated a yummy cake for my birthday. That would be a whipped peanut butter buttercream frosting. |
 |
| H3 thought it looked rather tasty. She was right! |
Week 1 of school was pretty rough. H3 had some issues adjusting to the rules and structure, as well as the general interaction with other kids her age. Despite that, she said she was enjoying her class and making new friends. By Friday of last week, things were starting to improve. Today went pretty well too, so I have hope for things to go more smoothly in the future. We shall see!
My parents arrived this past Saturday and are staying through Thursday. We celebrated H3's birthday today and I will post pictures of that soon, hopefully!
