A full week of school

We made it through the first full week of school.  Vance is trying to adjust to being at school all day.  He usually wakes up around 6 in the morning (on his own) and so by the time he gets home from school he is usually tired.  It's going to take some adjusting, but we'll get it all figured out. I have tried to convince him to go back to sleep for another hour and a half when he wakes up at 6.  It hasn't worked yet...

Porter still enjoys wearing hats especially this Mario one made by Grandma Jeppson.  He was just too cute not to take a picture of with the way he was hanging out.

Here are the boys all ready for church in their buttoned down shirts and ties.  

On Monday Vance pulled out his other top front tooth.  It was quite lose and a little threatening from me and he got motivated to pull it himself.  It took one half hearted pull to get it out.  His new ones will be in shortly.  

We had an ocean week with preschool for Tanner.  Here is a cute octopus he made.

 Porter is showing off a whale we made.  It was designed by Tanner.  We trace his arm and used two of his fingers for the tail.

 We also attempted a jelly fish in a jar with a plastic trash bag.  Vance thought it was pretty cool too.

 This afternoon Vance and Tanner wrote ocean related stories.  They turned out really cute.  I should scan them and post them on here to share.  You can find out more about our ocean week at my other blog.
