Busted!

Some one has a busted lip at our house...and it's Libbie! Libbie and Landon are starting to really play together, which we love, but Landon doesn't quite realize the size of Libbie. Also, add in, that we have two very clumsy children.

We try to remind Landon how much bigger he is and that he needs to be a bit more gentle, but Libbie doesn't help the situation. By no means is Libbie a dainty little girl...she likes to bump heads and stomp about. She too, doesn't realize her size.

So...today while playing, Landon accidentally knocked Libbie down, which resulted in a busted lip. Libbie has taken it like a champ and Landon has profusely apologized to not only Libbie, but Andrew and me, also.

After the busted lip, Libbie was in need of a nap. While Libbie napped upstairs, Landon napped downstairs. Once Libbie was awake and realized Landon was asleep downstairs, she headed straight to him to wake up Landon. She enjoyed this a bunch.

In the Washington Post

Ok...so neither my family nor I were worthy of making the front page of the Washington Post, but the school I teach at did! I'm not sure how I feel about it making the front page, but not much I can do about it.

I feel as though we are all aware that there has to be a change in the education system in the US, but what that change is, and how it will be implemented is the major topic of discussion. Fairfax County, here in Virginia is trying to implement a plan and the school I belong to is beginning it's implementation of this policy this current school year. It is a topic of great discussion and has made it's way into the Washington Post.

Read the article below to check out the policy and a glimpse of how education is headed.

Dress Up Fun!

Earlier this school year, a photographer came to Landon & Libbie's daycare. They came with outfits and props. I had no idea they were coming, but the workers made sure that Landon and Libbie had their pictures taken. Here's the final product.

I did not buy any pictures but because Andrew took a look at them we ended up getting a free sample and a magnet calendar with this picture on it. No too bad, for being FREE!

Libbie Lu

I think she's pretty darn cute...







What do you think???

At our house for Halloween, we had a Ladybug...and Woody the Cowboy!
They both were super excited to wear their costumes and Landon had a great time trick-or-treating!

We hope you all had a Happy Halloween!
