Helaina's First Day of Kindergarten

The day has come, we have a Kindergartner!  We've spent all summer taking about school and how Helaina is such a big girl and in true Helaina fashion, she was nothing but excited to ride the school bus and begin the school year.  
It was definitely bittersweet to watch her step on the bus and wave goodbye to us, knowing that this is the beginning of the next chapter of milestones.  So far, the transition has been smooth.  Helaina has classmates from her preschool and the bus is full of neighborhood friends.         




Helaina's bus stop gang...I asked Helaina if I could meet her bus at the school on the first day to make sure that she got to her classroom alright.  Her response, "No mom, but you can walk me to the bus."  And in a nutshell, that's our little miss independent girl!


Celebrating Teta's birthday with a Labor Day cookout at our cousin Ramsey's house.  This is what Helaina looks like when she gets scolded for putting her fingers in the cake to eat the frosting.

Boys will be boys...

with no shirts on...
Cheers to new beginnings, Happy Birthdays, and weekends filled with family and fun!
