We decided to enroll Evelyn in a Mother's Day Out preschool program this year to give her some socialization experiences with other kids her age. Today was her first day of school!

On the way to her classroom - she's in the skunks class (appropriate, actually...she's a little stinker!)

She didn't like her backpack - it was too heavy! :-(
This is how Lilly and I spent the day while big sister was at school!
Today was "Meet the Teacher Day" at Evelyn's school. She was pretty shy at first, she kind of shuffled down the hall, not quite sure what to think or do. Once she found the kitchen toys, she started warming up, though. Her teacher seems really nice, and I think Evelyn will probably have an easier time being in school than I will have thinking of her being there!
She is in the "Skunk" class (really? what a name!). It's a little surreal to see her name outside of a classroom!
We ended up leaving early because Evelyn has some nasty allergies that have given her a runny nose and lots of sneezes. I was feeling judged by some of the moms there for letting my 'sick' kid play with theirs, so we left. They may want to get the memo that their 2 year old is about to embark on the world of kid germs! :-) It was the first time since Lillian has been born that I have had some genuine one-on-one time with Evelyn, so I didn't want to waste the hour I had with her...
...so I took her to get a donut. :-)
While we were gone, Lillian had her first time alone with Amber. It's always heartwarming to get a text with this picture from your nanny of your newborn! We love our nanny! :-)
These would be all of the random sister pictures of the girls over the past month...Evelyn loves Lillian - almost too much! :-) We really have to watch her - she's been known to sit on her (trying to kiss her), tickle her (with a little too much force), pet her (because she's 'so so soft'), and feed her chocolate chips (that was a highlight...by the time we found it, the chocolate chip was half melted in Lilly's mouth. I started swiping it out with my finger and the only thing I could think to do with the melted chocolate was eat it myself - can't waste good chocolate, right? So I sat swiping out her mouth 6-7 times and eating what I got...kind of gross now that I think about it!)

Lilly has a hat!
Evelyn is obsessed with giving people chiropractic adjustments. Poor Lilly gets the brunt of it!
You can tell Lillian really likes it! :-)
Check her heart!

(one of my favorite things to watch)
One day I brought Lillian into Evelyn's room to wake her up from a nap - I laid Lillian down in her crib and waited for her to wake up...it was cute!
