It is hard to believe it has been over a week since we all drove home from Florida. As we hit the home stretch of the drive I snapped this picture in St Louis as the sun had just come up.

The evening was going good and I actually thought I might get dinner ready before Evan freaked out due to hunger, and then I hear Jon say, “Evan I have a cookie.” Evan comes running looking for that cookie not realizing Jon was talking about a plastic cookie in the other room. Poor baby just melted down at that point.

I ran across this video the other day and thought the kids would get a kick out of it.

Instead of brushing her hair, Lily tried some twirling and twisting maneuver with the brush.

This picture was taken after working on it for 10 minutes. All total it took about 15 minutes to get the brush free. The whole time she cried saying, “I don’t want a brush stuck in my hair forever.”

Today was field day at Lily’s school, tomorrow is the last day of school. I can’t believe we almost have a second grader.

Jen surprised Lily and showed up at field day to take a few pictures.

Lily decided the other morning that she wanted to start brushing her teeth after lunch at school. She was actually a little upset about this because she didn’t think “they” would let her. So she wrote a letter to her 1st grade teacher to check it out. Here is a scan that includes the teacher’s comments, I think it pretty well get to the point of what Lily was thinking.
