Anticipation!  

 This happy girl finally has two teeth!

 On our way to watch Rob kick off his triathlon!

 Swimming complete!

 Go Rob Go!  Cheering him on during his biking and running legs.

Ellie is making sure he stays hydrated!

Triathlon finishers-  Rob and Great Uncle Gary!

 Time for some tubing!

Ready for school - Ellie at her WOW Day, Kindergarten orientation.

 Eating her first school lunch and posing with her teacher, Mrs. Troutman.

 Enjoying one final day of summer before the first day of school!

Clara wouldn't join her in the water because she didn't want to get the boo-boos on her knees wet.

First day of  KINDERGARTEN!!!!

This view from the car rider line every morning makes me a little sad.  Our independent girl!

 Buddies!

 Her poor little itchy cheeks!  Her eczema has been especially flared the past few weeks.

Looking fancy and ready to meet her preschool teachers at the open house!

 Ending the first full week of Kindergarten with a special fro-yo treat!

It's finally Clara's turn!  She was more than ready to go.  Getting so big that she is even starting to replace her "kubuzz" with "because" -which makes us super sad!
