Seeing Spencer

Life is best with a mouthful of cookie.  

Hahahahahah! Daddy, you're hilarious. Now what was I saying?   

Every day a little cuter.  

Spencer mentioned that two of the rowdier kids in his class were absent today. I asked him if it was any quieter. He said, "no, it was still loud." So, a little quiet time in the reading nook helped balance things out.  

Spencer tells us that he plays with the cars and bikes using his recess at school. Which must be true because he's figured out both the steering and the pedaling of our tricycle.  

Spencer had a small allergic reaction to his flu shot, so he and Dad ended up doing a trip to urgent care right before bedtime. He brought a stuffie friend (for comfort) and a giant glowstick (to help stay awakein the car).  

Every day, we walk past the library on our way home from school. And every day Spencer asks if we can stop there. Some days, we do.  

Some pictures from Spencer's school picnic last weekend. Enjoying some chips. Exhausted from all the fun.  

Turning Toby proved to be a bit challenging.  

Tooting his own horn.  

Spencer was happy to see that yoga night included so many advanced poses.  

 Here's a shot of Spencer from his first day of school that's inside his classroom. Look out world!

Rita (or Reeter, as Spencer insists she is called) getting her glam look all together.  

Keeping it casual.  

Nursery School is hard work.  

Slide fun!  

It's been almost two full weeks. I'm pretty sure I'm ready for the next level, Dad.  

When you catch a snippet of juicy from across the room.  

Getting a quick pep talk from Toby. I think I got this. Taking the field. We're winning!  Good game, Toby. We make a good team.  

Sometimes when you have the snuggliest dad in all the land, you just pass out in the middle of everything else that's going on.  

This little cannon has entertained my children for hours on end. For obvious reasons.   

Sharing a couple shots from Spencer's teacher from the first week of school. According to her everyone is learning the routine and have already mastered lining-up.   Spencer is the lunch helper this week, which means he's responsible for placing everyone's lunches out at the table. He decides where everyone is going to sit at lunch. A big responsibility that he is taking very seriously. 

I'm pretty sure you're going to love what my Cafe has to offer. Yep. You're going to love it. I'm going to cook you 3 orders. Because it's just that good.  

Filling us in on his day at school. (Suffice to say he does not like it when his classmates don't listen to his polite requests.)  

Not to be outdone, Spencer had to try then too...  

3 days of school and Spencer figures he's ready to start teaching.  

Peeking over.
