• Reagan was the last one up this morning and took forever to get her clothes on.  On school mornings or even church mornings, Robby starts the tv and the kids come barreling down the stairs.  Reagan was no where to be found this morning and complained that they didn't wait on her while she was busy packing (putting her toothbrush in her bag).  Needless to say, she didn't get to finish her breakfast and I told her she could take it with her-and we forgot it.  Don't worry though, we did grab her a bit more cereal when we dropped the girls off.
• At church, Graham went to his class on one side of the building and then we drove to the other side of the building to wait until it was time to drop of Reagan and Anderson.  We pass our time by reading a few different books.  Anderson went in his class and then Reagan did too.  
• When I picked Graham up from school, I always ask "what did you do at school today" and he always replies "I forgot."  Then I continue with my questions and today I asked "did you go to music?" and followed it up with "what songs did you sing."  Graham was quick to shoot back and say "they were all Jesus songs."
• Keaton and Campbell had a big time at Nonna's house this morning.  Campbell remembered that Nonna had painted Reagan's fingernails so she asked me at home this morning if Nonna could paint hers too-so of course they did that while Keaton was sleeping.  Keaton worked hard on taking a few steps today and might just be the earliest Dennie walker.
• Graham was pretty needy this afternoon and followed me from room to room so I was thrilled when Robby made it home with Anderson.  After that Graham had his buddy home and they played for a few minutes before time to load up again.
• Reagan went home with Kennedy to spend the night.  When Anderson arrived I unloaded his backpack and found a badge from last week.  Though at soccer I found out that his class didn't earn their badges (stickers) today.  Hmm, not real crazy about that.  The class is too small to be having discipline problems and if it is my boy I want to know about it.    
• Tonight was the boys first football practice-4 coaches (including Robby) and 10 players-pretty good ratio.  My boys know nothing about football but enjoyed holding the ball and grabbing flags.  We still have lots of practicing to do at home!  Now my favorite part of the night was when the boys were running to me for their water bottles and ended up tackling each other-Graham ended up with a face full of grass!  
• After practice, we ran by Walmart for a bite to eat at Subway and to pick up a few things.  We bribed the kids with cookies and at home they quickly showered.  The boys had no plans of putting on their pajamas and quickly donned their new jerseys.  Then it was bedtime for all!
