We Have A Second Grader!

We are wrapping up our first week back-to-school. I cannot believe how quickly summer flew by and that Logan is already back in the classroom! He's a kid of few words but from what I can tell he has had a great first week. So far he hasn't cried or been clingy when I take him into the building. His class is a bit smaller this year and his teacher is brand-new. We didn't have any problems getting back into a routine (except that Mom has been sick and is extra tired lol).

A few pics from the first day....

G'bye Summer

 School started yesterday. Summer went by too fast. I'm sitting here in my too-quiet house full of summer reflecting. Was it a good summer? I suppose so. It wasn't full of summer camps, day camps, vacations or anything like that. It was simple. We took a trip to the pool, made a couple trips to one of our favorite summer spots, went camping...in my parents backyard (Logan says this was his favorite part of the whole summer), we saw a lot of family. There was a lot that didn't get done, some things we wanted to do that just didn't happen for one reason or other. Our last week of summer vacation was a bit of a disappointment. None of the fun things I had planned didn't happen for one reason or other. I think I'm the only one that cares, though, so I guess that's ok.

As we start back into our routine, here is a look back at some of our summer highlights.
Two trips to Rockome Gardens-me and Logan's favorite summer spot.

Matt and Logan played softball and t-ball. Logan's last t-ball season. Machine pitch next year!
