eat your vegetables

since abbie has been diagnosed with diabetes we have changed our family's diet to include more vegetables and less carbs. grandma has become very creative in her presentation of veggies to get the girls to eat them. here is abbie's veggie burger.

and she proudly shows off her first loose tooth- complete with her first grade sticker on her shirt.

fun

the girls spending some time together

goggles are worn just about everywhere

abbie's second day of first grade

and i couldn't resist adding a picture of abbie in her jumper on the second day

molly missed being in the picture as she was still sleeping but sophie was very excited to have some time alone with big sister abbie as she absolutely adores her

abbie's first day of first grade

abbie was so excited to start school again this year- she had a calendar and marked each day with a big X on her countdown to the big day.
this year she decided to wear a skort instead of her jumper

molly wished she could go to school with abbie

and of course sophie had to get in on the action too...

abbie came home smiling and has been smiling eveyr day since- she just loves school!

dinosaur on my finger

sophie kept putting this dinosaur on her finger and thought it was so great that it just hung on by itself

okay now she wants it off- check out this expression!

okay she really wants it off now!

last days of summer

and this is how we spent our last day of abbie's summer vacation- not too silly!

love

molly is sure going to miss abbie when she is in school!
