Stuff Edgar Says

Upon being asked by his father about the presence of voting booths at his school: "If they vote Yes, they're gonna tear the school down. If they vote No, they'll leave it up." Describing a treasure map: "First you go north for a long time, than you go south for a long time." (No place like home). While opening a birthday present from Aunt Jean (a hand-made Mighty Eagle a la Angry Birds): "Oh my dear mama!"

 

We're Back!

 

It's been a while—but now we are back and ready to share what we did this Winter besides hibernate.

'Twas the Week Before Christmas

..and we're cozying up with the grandparents. Some shots from Nana and Opa's last weekend (reading The Three Little Pigs and making ceramics on the iPad).

Looking forward to seeing Grammy on Friday!

Snowy

What to do on a snowy December day on the eve of your mom's birthday and just weeks before Christmas? Well, Edgar had a few ideas. In between morning dance class and seeing Tangled in the evening, Edgar watched parts of Yellow Submarine for the first time, picked out a tree for the holidays, and did a lot of playing.

Here's a pic from the morning -- at the Dog Park, before the snow was trampled -- as well as a few from later on.

Did You Know...Edgar Had a Birthday?

Jumping with Visiting Relatives

Not sure what was more fun when visiting with Marianna, Sam, and Henry yesterday -- jumping on the trampoline or goofing around in the car. Fun seeing Brandy the dog and all those other people, too.

 

End of Week One

Edgar's first week of Kindergarten was a short but eventful one.

He's really matured:

Here's one of the drawings Edgar's been finding in his lunches this week:

First Day of K!

Edgar is off to Kindergarten for day one. There was much crying and resisting, butterflies and digging-in of heels. But that was just his parents. Edgar was fine. He got to start the day with his car-pool mates, Anna and Rachel.

Here he is looking alternately preppy and hip-hop-ish.

UPDATED! Here' a picture which includes the aforementioned car-pool buddies.
