Birthday Fun

Birthday Boy
He Was In Charge Today
And he loved every second of it! 

When your birthday party falls on a Saturday, you get to have your party ON your actual birthday.  We found a great place to do an American Ninja Warrior party, and we had so much fun!

This is all the pictures I got before the power went out!  The kids LOVED it though.  The party room was pitch black, and they giggled because we were all holding up our flashlights on our phones to see.  Definitely made some memories!

First Day of Kindergarten


How did we get here? How did this happen so fast? 
I thought I might be more emotionally prepared when this day came.  As sad as I am about our "baby days" being behind us ... I'm equally as excited about everything that he is going to experience this year.

Barrett has been SO excited about starting kindergarten, but then came Meet the Teacher.  He was so nervous, I didn't think I was going to get him out of the door.

Playing Outside to Celebrate the End of Summer!

It's possible I didn't take ENOUGH pictures on the first day of school!
I was so proud of him.  He was so excited.  And walked right in, sat down, and basically waved us out of the room.

So Excited

Rocking His Pete the Cat Hat 

Soon after the school year started, PTO hosted a family picnic on the playground.  It was so cute to see Barrett playing with all of his new friends.  The only time I was able to get any of the kids to stay still long enough to take a picture while they were getting their faces painted.

Everyday the twins ask where Barrett is during lunch time.  So after a few weeks - and after we let him get settled into his new routine - we all went to have lunch with the kindergartners in the cafeteria. 

Safe to Say ... Everyone Was Happy
