Superhero monday

It is homecoming week at school so the kids dress up every day. Today was superhero monday so I sent batgirl and green lantern off to school!  (We didnt have time in the monday morning rush to get a picture so they both took a selfie in the car.:))
And then came home to work on some shapes and patterns with green lantern's little brother, appropriately dressed in his current favorite outfit....all green.

Notes and paper all around!

I must admit that having paper around the house ALL the time can get a little irritating, but I know that this phase of life will not last forever and cute love notes will not always be scattered around the house so I am choosing to embrace it!  Clara Kate and Ollie love to make pictures and notes for me all the time. Clara Kate and Levi are also into writing "books" too. Clara's have a lot of conversations in them and levi's tend to be a lot of background, but it is fun to see their little minds at work and developing all the time!

Do you remember this, Nana and Papa?

Ollie is enjoying using the number mat that Nana and Papa got fpr Clara Kate when she was preK age. He says thank you, Nana and Papa!

Labor day weekend

Friday was exciting around here and not just because it was a long weekend but because MI State played their first football game!  As you can see, craig made team spirit mandatory for game watching! :)

Then we enjoyed a couple days of Athens fun and swimming. In these pictures ollie still had his life jacket on, but by the end, he was swimming! Ck was also swimming but in the deep end and jumping off the diving board herself. (She had done this before but was really nervous and wanted us to be really close, but this time she was confident!) And levi was working on summersaults and flip turns which is why he has a nose plug on!
