August

Elle and Jay started back to school at M&M in August. Jay got moved up to the 2 yr old class and Elle is in the 4yr old pre-k program.
First day with her big girl backpack

Had to get his pic in the carseat b/c we were running late as always

Enjoying one of my Fridays off at the pool with these 2

We celebrated Pitty Pat's bday! We took her to dinner at Half Shell and then sang happy bday to her and let the kids blow out the candles on her cookie cake.

We took a little trip to New Orleans to celebrate Whitney's bday. So. much. FUN.

My lunch dates at Sake Cafe one Friday! The kids love trying to eat with the chopsticks there.

My mother and I took a week long trip to St. Marten with some of her friends and their daughters. It was beautiful there and this was the view from our house that week.

Although I loved being in the Caribbean for the week, I couldn't wait to get home to my babies. One week is way too long to be away from them. The only thing Elle asked me to bring her from my trip was a cake. So, like any good mother would do, I stopped by Wal-mart on the way home from the airport and got my girl some cupcakes. She was thrilled.

Jay has been wearing his big boy underwear and doing pretty well with potty training. I think having an older sibling is making him grow up way too fast! They love each other though!
