First Day of Third Grade!

Today was EJ's first day of 3rd grade. She was so excited that she had trouble falling asleep last night and she was awake very early this morning. She put on her backpack and wore it around the house for at least 30 minutes before it was time to go out for the bus. It's a funky new LLBean backpack that matches the lunchbox she already has, so she was anxious to use it. Note that in the 2nd shot, she has clearly posed so you can see the new earrings.



And here are a few photos of Sophie doing some of her new tricks. Here's one of her doing one-armed pushups:



And here she shows you how I do pushups:

Here she is pulling herself up on the couch. First, EJ entices her with one of her dollies:

Then, she goes up to her knees:

And finally to her toes. Yikes, we're in big trouble now!
