August was a pretty quiet month, just getting into the swing of school and activities.
Ivy found a highlighter in Felix's desk and colored on EVERYTHING! Herself, the chair, stuffed animals, the wall, the dresser... Luckily highlighter comes out pretty easily. Phew!
Jeff took the boys to a Monster Truck rally at the Oakland Colosseum. They had a blast!
Ivy trying on her Halloween costume.
Axel took a cooking class, so we hung out in this big room in the community center while he did that. It was too hot to play at the park (like 110 degrees).
Such a doll in one of Aunt Aerin's old dresses.
Trying out pigtails.
Ivy had a bit of a cold, but we really needed groceries, so I busted out our double stroller to fill it with groceries instead of spreading her germs on a grocery cart.
And she couldn't go to Kid's Club during Axel's tennis lessons when she is sick, so we had to hang out in the car. They are watching a show on the ipad.
That's one way to sit, I supposed.
Ivy sleeps with this baby doll, but she also likes to carry it around during the day so sometimes I have to frantically look for it at nap time. This particular day, after looking for about 20 minutes, I found it in the sink in my bathroom.
Felix's 1st Grade school picture.
Felix's "About Me" poster for class.
This absolute gem came home with Felix one day. I believe he meant "P.E."
Primary Activity, we did a bunch of water games.
"10 in the Bed song," stuck on repeat.
Axel got to attend 6th grade science camp for 3 days. He had a blast!
With his buddies, getting ready to board the bus.
And once I picked them up afterward!
I chopped my hair off to donate again. Only got 8-9 inches this time, but I was tired of the long hair so it had to go.
Kaden and Emma came for a quick visit.
I managed to get a little bit back into sewing (I've been so tired at night! and all day too, haha). I made this shirt for my sister in law's birthday present.
