Plums get the stamp of approval

Yum, yum give me more plum!  Addie's first food, unless of course you count the red onion ring she started chewing on while we were on vacation last month!

Art file clean up

Emma, being the aspiring artist that she is, has accumulated many, MANY drawings/paintings/collages, etc during her five years at Wee Care.  We decided to make room for the art that is sure to come in the coming years.  Emma paired down her collection to about 1/3.  It was fun to see some of her art from when she was 2 and 3 years old during this activity.

Super Readers

Both girls earned their summer reading tee-shirts this past week.  They were super excited to wear matching outfits for Emma's first day at her new daycare.  All went well on the first day, aside from Emma reporting that she ate her yogurt with her fingers (because I forgot to pack her a spoon--bad mommy!)  She made some friends, and even met a couple of people who will be starting kindergarten with her next month.  She's excited to go back tomorrow....so thats success in my book!

Ahh...

Addie likes to stretch out when she has the extra space in our bed...leaving Ken and I with a few inches each.  Good thing we like to snuggle with her!

Sweet potato soup

Emma created her first recipe tonite.  Yesterday, she had some fun making some vegetable stock from the scraps left over from making lunch--who knew she would enjoy that so much!  Well today, she wanted to make something with her stock, and viola...her sweet potato/corn soup was born.  Despite my less than appetizing photos, it tasted really good.  Best part...Emma ate two bowls!  Yay! She ate some veggies today.  

Addie's seat at the table

She's loving her new height at the table...moving up from meal time in the bouncy chair.  Emma doesn't  seem to mind "fetching" Addie's toys from the ground during meals, and actually appears to like playing dropsy as much as Addie does.

Giggles

Emma and Daddy were killing it with Addie tonite!  She has a way to make us feel like we are REALLY funny!  :)
