{Wednesday}

today was a good day.
it started with homemade muffins and our new favorite smoothie for breakfast.
it had to be good right?

greek key lime yogurt with strawberries and a splash of apple juice, and choc. chip muffins.

this was my first morning driving aubrey to school by myself so i was a bit nervous.
we chatted about her new friends and what she was going to play with first.
it was the loveliest conversations.
i can't tell you how much i love that.
she told me that "her worstest day was the day she threw up at school. and that it's ok if she feels a little sad...sad's not soooo bad"!
she also explained in great detail how they do snack and all about the jobs they have and wondered if they ever switch the jobs? "i'm gonna ask miss r today"!

i miss her like crazy, but i love that she now has things to tell me.
things i don't know about,  stories that i can't fill in the blanks for.
things that are just hers to tell and share.
that part is so exciting, for both of us!

i ventured into target after drop off.
alone.
alone!!!
now, i've been in target alone before.
obviously.
but this time felt so different.
for one thing i was constantly checking the time!:) ha
i saw mommies with little ones and i didn't fall apart.
we are making progress!!

we met dave for lunch after school and that was so much fun.
she talked non-stop and
ate every. single. bite. of her lunch.
school makes you hungry i guess.

our heat has been craaazy!
the girls have had early dismissal because of the temps all week.
this one seems to be the only one who never wants to go in cause it's hot.

after school we had a friend over and there was lots of dress up, dancing and loud music drifting up from the basement. we are finally...maybe...starting to get this after school routine thing straightened out.
and lunch boxes....ugh...i'm over 'em all ready!:)

riley has her first cross country meet thursday.

wish we could all be there, but with the heat, this one's just for daddy.

they have a buffalo wild wing date all planned out for after the race.

they'll both love that!

and may i just say, this one has adjusted beautifully to middle school.

i couldn't be prouder of her.

she is growing up right before our eyes and she is just so lovely!

really lovely.

 



so how was your wednesday?
please share!

have a happy day,
