We woke up super early to make bacon and pancakes and blast Pandora on the TV to wake up our not morning people kids. So they had a dance party while we got breakfast cooked up.

After they danced themselves awake they got dressed and sat down to eat a hot breakfast. I am not a morning person at all. So this was pretty much a one time deal. Cereal and milk, or a granola bar to go are our usual school breakfast options. Sometimes on Fridays they get a poptart….. And they mostly help themselves. This is why I bulk batch pancakes and muffins. They freeze well and it's just 30 seconds in the microwave and then they get a hot breakfast.   Jon telecommutes on Thursdays, and since the first day of school was a Thursday he was able to go with us. Kaylee got dropped off at the play gound and was not really into goodbyes this year. SO this last minute adjustment of her backpack was all I got. 🙁 She paused long enough to get a fast picture with Jon and then was off in the blink of an eye. It was a happy/sad moment for us. We got a few more/better shots with Regan. He was JUST as excited as Kaylee. We only managed one quick picture in the class room before he was off exploring. The next day I realized I didn't get pictures of their backpacks. Regan got TNMNT and loves it. Click and buy. Delivered to our door. I may be addicted to online shopping…. His backpack was SO so so easy. 20 minutes of snuggle time while looking online with him for his bag. Perfect. Kaylee was VERY specific on what she wanted. Pink. With a pink Wonder Woman, and silver stars. WHAT?! When I told her I didn't think they made pink WW backpacks she assured me that that was fine since she knew I could just make one for her. WHAT!?!?!

I spent 5 hours hunting down a pink WW patch that was big enough. FIVE HOURS! She has not a clue how much I love her. I bought a plain pink backpack and silver star patches and sewed them on the bag. She was beyond thrilled and very grateful. I really love how unique it is. Just like Kaylee.
