A little bit of this and that

I know some of your kids are just starting school or not starting until September. For us, this is our third week. After the first couple of weeks of settling in, things are starting to get serious. Little Miss came home with a few graded tests--92 and 100 on math and 100 on reading comprehension. And this week her homework includes studying for a spelling test. Even Little Man has a homework folder now! Each Monday he gets to take his homework folder home and has until friday to complete it. Since he is just in Pre K the homework is not mandatory, but he does get to go into the class treasure box if he completes it. This was his second week and both weeks he completed all his homework items on Monday afternoon lol! Following in big sister's footsteps I guess.
Here he is post hair debacle. Yikes that hair is short! But it has been 115 everyday this week and we are all melting so short hair is probably best for now. I probably wont have to cut it until October lol!
Ok, on to business... 

Have you seen the sneak peek for Scrapbook Circle's September kit---let me just say it DOES include some Amy Tangerine!!! Yaaaay!

I will likely have another post today with some recent projects AND should have a post this week with my first Best Creation projects (AND A GIVEAWAY!!!) but for now...
Remember this post, where I made my little guy an ABC decor for his room? Well if any of you have two kids, you know that you NEVER make ONE of anything lol. So of course Little Miss was very upset that she didnt have an ABC hanging for her room--even though she is obviously well past learning her ABC's (in fact the book she brought home to read to me this week is one of the Magic Treehouse books and she is actually doing pretty well at reading it.  But that's besides the point. Fair is fair in their mind everything MUST be equal, SO...
I got to use up some Thickers (I hardly ever finish the X's or Z's!!) and used a frame I had gotten from IKEA from FOREVER ago. Alright, with that said, we are all equal and fair now lol! Have a great day!
