September Summary

We've had such a busy month of September that I hardly had any time to post!  Not only did Ian start school and sports and Mia went back to Little Gym, and we've had to adjust to an earlier morning start and busier evenings, but I launched both a fitness coaching and a Jamberry nails business (I am crazy).

On Labor Day a friend came to town from Colorado so we met up with her and her family at a local winery.







On September 2nd Ian had his first day of Kindergarten!  We drove him to school that day to help him get settled, and the high school band was there to welcome the students.  The night before the parents had written chalk messages all over the sidewalks around the school too. After the first day Ian decided he wanted to ride the school bus, and he claims it's his favorite part of the day.









On the 21st we went to another local winery with our daycare friends.  We love taking advantage of the beautiful Fall scenery and the family-friendly venues around here.  Ian and this crew have been together since they were infants in the baby room!



This past weekend we went to a concert at yet another winery.  It was an 80s band and the kids got all done up in glow sticks.



Then on Sunday we went apple picking, a favorite Fall tradition. Ian is learning about apples at school this week so he picked out his favorite one to take in his backpack today.













Mia has a birthday coming up!  I've updated her wish list with some suggestions, but she is really into dolls and loves anything Dora, Ariel, or Elsa.  She also loves books.
