Many Firsts

Summer is over and real life is back in full swing! Here are all the "firsts" we've been having at our house!

Hudson's FIRST day of FIRST grade! My, how time flies!

Hud's FIRST experience eating lunch at school! And my FIRST time making a school lunch for one of my kiddieloos. I thought these sweet little number sugar cookies would be fun and festive for his dessert. Steve thought it was a bad idea since Hudson is a picky selective eater and he'd never tried them before. I told him "nonsense". After all, they were cookies for heaven's sake, not broccoli!
Um, Steve was right. I got chastised from the minute he got in the car until we got home about how they were the grossest things ever, that they tasted like cereal (something he's never even tried) and why would I put something like that in his lunch instead of fruit snacks?!?
Why, oh why do I try? 

Oliver's FIRST day of Kindergarten!!
 

A few Spidey poses are ALWAYS in order.

He gets to go to school and be in the same class as his cute cousin Beckett! They are so lucky!

Penelope's FIRST time trying to cram 2 binkies in her mouth at once. Don't worry, it hasn't been the last.

Pippi's FIRST haircut!
 

She was a gem!

And her FIRST time wanting to wear earrings. She loved swinging them back and forth.

And unfortunately, her FIRST time rolling her eyes at me. I'm sure this will not be the first and only time, sad to say. I never knew this kind of attitude started when they were still in a high chair!!
I'm in trouble.
