Eloise's hair is long enough for pigtails and when I distract her (a trick my friend taught me) she forgets they're there and leaves them in!
Sisters digging in the sand before Kindergarten began.
Eloise tells me jokes, "Mama-----HOOOO! Ha ha ha!"
The Tickle Monster got Claire and she dropped her blue candy (see it leaving her mouth in the next picture)--she was very upset about that!
Dad and Claire intently watching some science happen.
Nasty--it was just a dead bird. Adam was having Claire observe the cormorant's webbed feet.
Cute little sand birds.
Puddle stomping in the ocean is fantastic stress relief!
Eloise showing off her buck tooth--it's twice the size of any of the others!
First day of kindergarten, Pioneer School, Mrs Yee's Rice Owls class. The Rice Owls caused some family upheaval because neither Adam nor I believed Claire was saying it correctly. I thought she meant "Rise, Owls!" because it was a line command and Adam thought it was "Wise Owls!" Claire was very mad at us until I saw it written out and we apologized and gave her mint ice cream (her favorite). It turned out that her teacher attended Rice University.
Very excited to enter school! She had a great day and already adores her teacher. We know you'll do wonderful things Miss Claire!
