Alec had his first day of Preschool today.
This is what he immediately did when we got to the porch.
He had a great day and he loves his new school.

Because of class sizes Claire has to go to a different school now starting on day three. No more walking to school; we have to drive to this one. BUT it is the school that Mommy went to for kindergarten through sixth back in the day. She was a little apprehensive but she seems to like it now. We took a couple of pictures because it was still a big day.
Seems like for every sweet pic I get anymore
I have to take double the silly ones (at least)
And then you have the shenanigans going on while Mommy and Claire are going to her second new school of the week.
Our neighborhood school is walking distance from our house. Takes about five minutes to get down there and about 25 to climb back up. (kidding, sort of, there are A LOT of stairs). Claire has always wanted to walk to school so she was super excited to get to do so.
Claire had a great day at her new school. She is so excited about the 1st grade!
The good one

We went to Auntie Cecilia’s house for a fun Saturday afternoon. The kids loved feeding the chickens and picking eggs. We then went down to fish at the pond.
Claire worked hard and read her 25 books for the reading program at the public library this summer.
In Honor of Claire Hassler, Summer Reading Program 2014
Alec got his name in a book too but he got to keep his. He had 25 books read to him. You have to read them yourself to get your name in a library book. The nice ladies had some books and made him a sticker and gave him a book to keep.
So if you haven’t figured out, Mommy is a bit protective, especially after Claire was in a car accident. So for her 6th birthday she got to graduate from a five point harness car seat to a booster. I know, a little longer than most, but also a little bit safer. She was quite excited!
We had a great family birthday party for Claire. It was a lot of fun.
Claire got a lot of really fun and neat things.
And Claire and Alec both got a fishing rod and tackle box.

And Claire got a big girl doll. We decided on which to pick by her name. We told Claire that Claire is her middle name and she gets to pick her first name. She is still working on that.
Happy Birthday Claire!
Claire lost her first tooth with the help of Grandma and she pulled the second one all by herself. I remembered to take a before picture when they were super loose but it doesn’t appear that I ever took a picture after they were out. Woops! They were out about a month apart. Here is the befores with all of her baby teeth still intact.
I’ll have to take a pic before the next one comes out!
