September 2011 - Week II

I'm getting a little bit better about pictures now that all our fall activities have started.  We'll see if I can manage to keep it up amidst the chaos!  We have finally started school, preschool, ballet and soccer.  Hopefully I don't take the wrong kid to the wrong place at the wrong time!

I didn't have my good camera at Merediths first soccer game.  Don't worry, there are lots of games to come and more pictures of course.  After the first practice I asked Meredith how she liked it.  She said "It's hard and we have to run a lot". My thoughts exactly, that is why I lasted one season when I was little.  She did however love her first game!  The "Goal-scorers" (I'm not sure why the girls picked that name?) won by a wiiiide margin.
 Poor, poor Meredith started biting her nails a couple months ago.  She spent the entire game chewing away.  I guess she got my ocd tendencies...
 The best part about kindergarten is getting to walk Meredith too and from school each day.  We have always loved the East End but we love it even more now that was only have to walk a block to school.  Papa Gene has been taking Meredith each morning and Delaney tags along.  This is great because it gets her dressed without a battle!  This week Papa Jim and KK were here to visit so they got drop off duty. 
Delaney HAD to have her backpack and was racing to catch up.
 It takes a LONG time to get to school when you stop to pick up every rock, leaf, stick and bug.
 Quinn is not much for sharing these days.
 But occasionally she will let her sister touch her!
 Papa Jim and Delaney have a special bond, they just adore each other.
 Quinn wanted to line up this morning too.
 Meredith, biting her nails again.
 Lucky for us the Roosevelt Market is just on the other side of the school.  A perfect stop on the way home for coffee or strawberry milk.
 Quinn likes to visit the goldfish and the mouse salt shaker.
*bruise on her face is from falling into an outdoor light, ouch*
We love when Papa Jim and KK come to visit!  KK got to help in Merediths class yesterday and I got to go today.  It's so fun I wish I could do it all the time.
