The end of summer pics

Summer's really gone for us now. Bobby is back at pre-school and loving his second year there. Lilly is really getting into the groove of Kindergarten. And I'm starting to get the whole school routine down for picking up and dropping off the kids at 2 different schools . It's been great to get a little break from the two older kids for a few hours and focus on my little two munchkins. Heidi seems to be enjoying the Mon, Wed, Fri mornings we get to spend together. There is still plenty of chaos when the kids get home from school but I love that Lilly and Bobby are nice and tired now at the end of the day. :)

Of course Heidi wants to be apart of school picture taking process

At Lilly's BFF Sofia's birthday party
I hope Lilly and Sofia remain friends for life. I hope that we can embarass them at their weddings with these pics from back in the day. :)

This kid is trying to sit up! She will be 6 months old soon. Gotta love Where's Waldo in the background

I think she will be sitting up on her own in the next few weeks

Almost 2!

What my living room looks like by 5pm each day. Each night we clean up and start the process all over the next day. See I am not really super mom.

The best part about pre-school for me


And of course my favorite game is to compare the babies! So here is Michael, Loralee, and Bobby all around 4 to 5 months in age. Triplets?

Lilly's first day of Kindergarten

Today was a big day in the Lloyd house. Lilly started Kindergarten! I can't believe I just took my firstborn to her first day of elementary school. So crazy and exciting! She was thrilled with her teacher and told me at pick up that there are 100 kids in her class. I thought that was pretty cute. I think it's more like 20 but it seems way more to her. The whole family went to drop her off this morning and then the 3 little kids and I picked her up this afternoon. And let me tell you, it's quite a work-out loading and unloading all 4 kids twice a day. I'm sure in the next few weeks we will get the routine down much faster. It will help too when Bobby returns to preschool on Monday. Here's all the pics of the beginning of our Kindergarten adventure this morning.



The start of school would not be complete without a Scooby Doo lunchbox. The school gives the K kids a special school bag (something we found out AFTER buying the Barbie backpack)

So glad Michael was able to go to work late and join us for this big event

And I even held it together this time!
