EZ preschool

EZ started preschool this year. He was so excited to go and be a big boy in school.

That morning for breakfast he said, "I wish I was a bird." And when I asked why he told me, "so I could eat worms!" He is just a creative, happy, easy going little dude. We are so excited for him to be in school. He even told me he wants to "do homework".

 His teacher is so nice. Her name is Ms. Stephanie. She told me he main focus in preschool is to just love the kids. Yes, please. I think that is pretty much what preschool should be and some other fun stuff and learning on the side.

 Such a big boy.

 Practicing his first day of school face.

 His best friend is in the same preschool but in a different class. So they get to play around every day before and after.

Has it already been 18 month??

Sometime between February 2012 and now, Lola was turning 18 months. Where did the time go?? She is THE HAPPIEST little girl. She is full of sunshine and smiles (unless she's not and then she sure can scream)  I'm not sure if it's a personality thing or a third child thing, but this girl is totally content just chillin' on her own. She walks around and gathers things in purses or her arms. 

I love when I pick her up she will fold herself over and she's like this little ball. She is just so perfect and petite.

And with that face she gets away with anything. For example:

 Still loves her "blay-bee". Today, i bought her some soft sleeper jammies and she carried those around, too. So, it's safe to say she loves all things soft.

 Loves her dad. She shrieks when drives up and honks that he is home.

 Total sass. She has this look...I love it.

 Best sisters.

 She got her squeekers shoes. She still twirls her wrists all day and has the most adorable, purposeful walk.

 Are you kidding me? Look at that face.

 And...this little lady loves purses, dress ups, hats, glasses, and shoes, shoes, shoes!

We took her to nursery on Sunday. It was the beginning of the end for momma and daddy Chambers!

iowa and nauvoo

I decided to have an adventure this summer and drive to visit a friend in Iowa. It was a 51/2 hour drive. I was pretty nervous but then I did it and now I've done it and I'm like, "bring it on driving!" The kids were awesome. we listened to books on tape and music and that's it. I'm always so proud when we can do it without dvd. I guess I just feel like that's how I traveled as a kid and I want that to be the same for them. Or maybe, I just forgot the dvd's and I'm so glad they made it without!

 Look at those skies. Seriously, Iowa is very beautiful

 Our kids played so well together. My friend (one of the longest friends i've had...since 4th grade) was 37 weeks prego and we just hung out and talked and let the kids play. It was perfect!

 The day we got home from Iowa we had some of our good med school friends come to Nauvoo with us. We had fun at our house on Friday and then headed to Nauvoo on Saturday. We stayed late and went to the pageant. Again, it was perfect!

 Chloe and Luke were buddies when they were newborns to 2 1/2 and it seemed like they had known each other forever as 6 year olds. So fun.
