Continued from yesterday...

I just had to post more pics from yesterday's events - too much fun, I couldn't resist!

***

Trysten wanted to get in on the first day of school pics - here he is saying "Chee!" which means "Cheese!"

And here we are making our yummy banana bread. Just a quick note about the banana bread - this morning Brailee said, "What if we try it with peanut butter!" I was a little skeptical but if she was willing to try it, so was I. I must say, I now know why people like peanut butter and banana sandwiches - it was surprisingly good!

Brailee was really good at mashing the bananas...

...watching it mix...

...and making a mess!

She played with this for almost an hour after we were done making our bread - she had fun but made a huge mess - at least she was good about cleaning it up, and still adorable in the process!

I wouldn't let Trysten attempt the same mess, but he had fun playing with his trucks instead - I love how he rides his Tonka - he figured this fun trick out on his own.

And he currently LOVES trailers, especially this horse trailer - he loves to hook it up to the truck and pull it everywhere.

He did climb up to help every once in a while - but he made sure his truck came along ;-)

...and he was sure to flash more cheesy smiles...

After we made our banana bread and got cleaned up, Brailee wanted to play dress-up. When does she NOT want to dress-up, she loves it. She must have had a long exciting day because she crashed! It was a late nap but she still went to bed at 8 o'clock, thankfully!

After we dropped her sisters off at the bus stop this morning, Brailee wanted to work on her 'homework' - here she is practicing writing her name. Oh, and notice she already had her dress-up clothes on first thing this morning - I'm telling you, she would wear them all the time if I'd let her ;-) BTW - I do have a couple pictures that prove I have let her wear them regardless of where we are going a few times - it was funny to see the looks we got those days!

After I took that picture, Brailee took the camera and captured this one - I love it! You can see she was practicing her A's on her notebook on the left. I just love the set-up and angle of this photo - all through the innocence and eye of an almost 4 year old!

Trysten wanted to get into the homework action, too - he would scribble and then say "G! G!" He was pretty proud of himself! Oh, and notice his jammies - as much as Spongebob drives me nuts sometimes, I just couldn't resist these.

Thanks for visiting - have a great day!
