Sutton's First Day of Preschool

He looks too small to me to be going anywhere I am not right by his side for 2 mornings a week, but he is ready!

His favorite center, anywhere the wheels are. He was happy until I said goodbye, then the tears came, but apparently just until I left the room. It was really hard to leave this little guy, but we both made it. The smiles were even bigger as he told me about cars, snack and lunch when I came to pick him up!

Endless Summer

You would think that school starting back and the weather dropping into the 70s (for a few days) means Fall is in the air and Summer is long gone. After all it was just Labor Day. But it's just not the case here in NC. We're back in the 90s and the summer guests keep coming. More visits to the beach and sightseeing galore means I get to keep my summer for at least one more week. :) Here are a few pics of our trip to the aquarium with our friends, the Nelsons who are in town this week.

This sea turtle is a new addition to the aquarium since our last visit. It is so small and adorable.

 Leave it to Mr. Joe to coax the kids into a hurricane simulator! They loved it.

New Hat

Sutton got this hat for his train birthday back in June, but has recently fallen in love with it. And in so doing, has caused me to fall in love with the way he constantly wears it a little sideways.
