Brannan Care: New School Year

Welcome back! I've missed blogging! :) AND I've really missed the kids! They have had a great first few days! I think they missed the toys more than me, but that is okay, everyone has been playing non-stop! Mj even had a chance to go with her Grandma Jane and passed it up to be with Sophia & Lia! :) This is the first time she's ever passed up a grandma Jane date! :)

I feel for the teacher mommies. Fall is always so bitter sweet. I always LOVED the excitement of a new school year, new students, such promise ahead. But I was also SO sad to put an end to say goodbye to my full time attention on my own babies. In case you're at work really missing them........Here is a recap of the first day!

We had a healthy breakfast of Cocoa Puffs, Fruit Loops, and bananas (SORRY to feed your kids crap, but Michael and Maddilyn did the shopping for vacation & it's gotta get eaten before I shop the "right way"). The kids didn't mind. Sophia may now request chocolate for every meal! :) Your welcome!

Sophia and Michaela were inseparable all day. They played doctor where Mj patched up a bunch of pretend boo boos and gave Sophia Medicine. They went on a road trip where Mj buckled Sophia into Josh's carseat & drove to Disneyland. I'm not sure why, but at some point Mj redid Sophia's hair because it was pretend wet. They had a party (dressed up and decorated and everything). (Are you beginning to think as I am, that Mj wears the pants in this relationship?) AND finally they had some computer time in a fort Maddi made for them before heading to bed together.

Josh did some jumping......

The rest of the group did some jumping.....

Josh and Billy had some male bonding time. Here is Billy helping to cover him up AND having some floor time together........

Then naps looked like this......

I know they slept around an hour, but I don't exactly how long. When I checked on them around hour 2, they were snuggled and reading.... sort of, that is a piece of the blinds that Mj ripped off in her hands! :)

Lia making up for lost sleep yesterday at daycare in a packnplay in the couch room (best nap of the crowd!)

I didn't dare wake up Billy to take a pic or Josh in his swing with the cat naps all day.

Maddi practiced Golf instead of napping.
