Jamie's students started class this past Thursday, and he's been busy getting everything together. We had a fun outing on Sunday at the meet and greet picnic - Maggie got to run all over the bleachers and football field, and was in her glory!
Woo!!!
It all starts here, guys. Dig deep.

I thought we were finished with our basement issues, but we ended up hiring a company to remove some of the drywall due to mold issues. We now have the bottom 12 inches of drywall removed around most of the perimeter - it looks pretty goofy. We're starting a new trend - most people like to finish their basements, while we're looking to un-finish ours!
Do you hear that Mommy? That's the sound of you trendy new basement making news!
This is how real artists do it
Please come out. Can't we just talk like adults?
Out of my way! Wonder Woman is here to save the day!
My poor little nephew Will had to have surgery this week because food wasn't getting from his stomach to his intestines. I know it was really scary for Amy and Rex, but thankfully everything went very well and he's doing great now!
I'm a champ!
Thursday we went to cousin Betsy's to celebrate the 50th wedding anniversary of Aunt Judy and Uncle Walt! They are a very loving couple, and we're so happy for them!
Playing on their awesome swing set!
Maggie went back to daycare this past Friday, and moved into the toddler room. I was so anxious the night before and all during the day (even called to check in on her). I was worried she would feel abandoned in a new room with a new teacher. She was a little unsure when we first arrived, but they said she was awesome the whole day. She was definitely thrilled to see Daddy at the end of the day, but no meltdowns or sad moments! She even napped a little over an hour (last year she almost never napped at daycare). I think it's going to be great year!
Today we had an awesome Saturday. We went to the zoo, and all the animals were really entertaining because it was so cool and overcast. We all took a 2 hour nap afterward, and Mommy went for a pedicure. I decided to do zero work today - we just needed a family breather! Tonight we're going out to celebrate our 4th anniversary - so glad I have this guy, I really needed him these past few weeks!
First train ride at the zoo!
Zebras and giraffes were her favorite animals this time
Taking time to smell the flowers
I'm going to go play with the animals!
We went to lunch afterward, and made the rookie parent mistake of ordering spaghetti despite the fact that we forgot a bib. She actually did a pretty good job eating without ruining her clothes.
That's a good-a meatball!
Maggie likes to pretend she's a horse jockey sometimes:
After a long day of fun, Maggie tends to nap pretty hard... though I've never heard her snore like this!
