I just talked to Megan on the phone. She is having a fun day today. Her and Abbey were running away from the boys at recess. They were trying to get them from everywhere she said. She said the letter of the day was Ss and it was yellow day. She wore her yellow hairband. I took her to the library before school in hopes to be able to get some books. The librarian was busy with a class the whole time. We left with no books. We went back outside and Megan could see that her class was already lining up and she was upset. "Mom. They're already lining up." She LOVES school.
She was so excited that they had lemon heads for snack, because it is yellow day. "Guess what Mom? I love lemon heads!" She is having the best day, you could hear it in her voice. It has been a few weeks since I have heard her so happy. It must be since it is the second week of school that she is doing better. Starting to make new friends and enjoying it. She loves when they stand in line and make a train with their friends. She loves everyone.
Little Chloe is still having such a hard time. Why do those teeth have to be such a bother? I finally got her happy this morning. It took some doing too. I put her back in bed for 5 minutes or so even. I got her a bottle and some raisens and she was finally not fussy again. In fact she was a little twurp. She was doing her smile to get you to smile and make you laugh. Big cheesy smile and a laugh. It made my day. "You stinker."

Megan is still waiting to be the Queen for the day. She said it was a secret, but everyday that I take her to school, she wonders who will be the Queen today. She learned about the letter G and had a really good time. She said that her teacher loves her. Isn't that nice to feel that way about school. She gave a girl a big hug on the way out. She loves school.
We met Travis down at his mom's and let him take the car and stayed with his parents. Megan was so excited about being with Grandma Chris. We helped pick in the garden. Megan was cute taking vegetables in her bike basket. It was really fun to help get the peaches and the pears down off the tree. Chloe was in the swing and she wanted to have our attention the whole time. As long as you played with her she was good.
Chloe was trashed. She at a tomato and dropped it in the dirt and started to eat it again. She got it everywhere. I don't know that it would have tasted good, with all that dirt on it. Then we let the girls play in the sand box for a little while. So between the two, I think she was the dirtiest she has ever been in her life. How often can you say that.
