A few September moments.

Now that Emma is in Kindergarten every day, Grant and I have had the opportunity to take some classes together.  We both love it so much!!  I really enjoyed these with Emma at age 2, so it has been a treat to now attend with Grant.  I even enrolled him in a 45 minute preschool class that is once a week.  That means that I have 45 minutes all to myself once a week!!!!!  It's like heaven.  Sometimes I read a book, sometimes I catch up on phone calls, sometimes I shop - but whatever I do, it is in the middle of the day and I have no children attached!! :)

Here is Grant in his messy art class.

He has started to get his 2-year molars and you can find him like this at any second of the day.  All 4 fingers shoved into his mouth.  Poor kid.

Emma and her new school t-shirt.  She had to buy this with 40 chore points!!!!  So she worked hard and she LOVES it.  She would wear it every day to school if I would let her.

Krisha and Pierce Hingson came over last weekend and taught us how to make sushi!!!  YUM!!!  It was amazing!!

Last Monday, it POURED and POURED and POURED rain!!!!!  I just love the rain and so it was an awesome day for this Kentucky girl!!!  We had already scheduled a play date with some friends at the park - so we decided to go anyway and let the kids play in the rain.  Grant had a wonderful time, but as we were leaving and he was soaking wet, he was not so happy.

I have signed up for another triathlon at the beginning of November - so I have been really enjoying my morning bike rides and swimming again.  Wish I could say I also enjoy the running, but I just really don't.  I tolerate it so that I can do triathlons.  Maybe someday....

Here is a morning view of the canal path I take to ride my bike.

Greg and I got to take a prospective attorney out to dinner last weekend (thanks Uncle Fennemore for footing the bill).  While we were down by his office, he decided to take me on a tour of the new workplace.  I thought I should take a picture of him by his office so that we have proof that he really does work somewhere.  :)

Emma had atrocious behavior last Sunday in Sacrament Meeting.  I mean, really, really, really bad.  She was screaming and wailing and gnashing her teeth.  It was so bad that I had to ask Greg to come down from the Bishopric stand for support.

In any case, part of her punishment was sitting on a chair (reverently folding her arms) for 10 minutes facing the wall.  Grant decided that he also needed to do this (although he was not in trouble) - so he dragged the chair over right next to his sister and mumbled to himself all the way, "I need to face the wall, I need to face the wall". haha.
