Labor Day, 1st day of school, and kids say the darnest things

We decided to spend Labor Day by the pool and relax before Kinsley had to gear up for school on Tuesday. We hung out lazily by the pool all day and then I cooked ribs (for the first time!) for dinner. It was a much need break from painting.

Lunch by the pool

Diva child had to have her sandwich in the shade.

We have several rosh bushes that are blooming. I think this color is the prettiest.

I was just waiting for him to fall in the float bin.

His future's so bright he has to wear shades!

Yesterday was Kinsley's first day of 4 year pre-k. She was so excited that morning and did great when we got to school. When I picked her up I knew something was wrong. She was quiet and said she had a headache....well she had caught some kind of bug. She's feeling a little better today and I'm hoping by tomorrow she'll be ready to go back.

I was worried Colby would be lonely with Kinsley at school but I think he enjoyed getting all my attention!

So I have to post a couple of things the kids have said recently mainly so I will remember them.

The other day at the breakfast table (we always have funny conversations over breakfast) Kinsley says, "Tragically Colby was born without a brain." The child is hilarious.

This morning Colby had dumped a whole bowl of cereal on the floor and the dog (I told you something always happens at breakfast). As I was cleaning it up (very calmly I might add), Colby says, "Calm down Mommy. Calm down!" Seriously he's two!
