New normal

We finished our second full week of school! There are still some kinks being worked out - mostly with Kasper being in the high school and me having to compete with all the high school after-school activity-goers to get my car into the right spot to get Kappy and get him home. But they love being back in school and we love them able to be with their friends and teachers. 

Kasper is home Wednesdays and that's actually kind of fun for me. They have a whole day of work for them to do so he stays busy. This week he had to draw a self portrait and he did such a good job! 

 

Marlo has a newly energized love for her mixed media art. She got a hole in her socks so made them into fingerless gloves. Then she made a bed out of a coffee table box and blankets out of the packing foam.

 

We relaxed this weekend. The weather was a little sunny and a little rainy and we were all ready to lay low. The kids are still completely exhausted after full days at school. 

Today was our 12th wedding anniversary! It was a little different this year! But we managed to find a way to get ourselves some sushi to celebrate. Even if it meant towing these little barnacles to the sushi place and watching them delight in using umbrellas for the first time. In heavy winds but not so much rain. Plenty of eye rolling.

 

Kasper's front tooth is trying to march right out of his mouth. Why doesn't it just come out?? If you're keeping track at home, he's in 4th grade - almost 10 years old - and has only lost 2 teeth. And had those pulled. 2 years ago. 

 

Hope everyone had a great weekend!
