all this growing up is getting to me.

Here they are.

My girls on their last day of school.

Sophie completing her kindergarten year.

And Isabelle finishing up in pre-K.

Both of ’em looking cute, too.

But when I look back on pictures from the first day of this school year…

Ummmm… what?!

Here is my Sophie Lu on her last day of school…

and her first day of school back in September.

And as quickly as this school year came…

it’s gone.

Farewell pre-school.

Big boys pics will be coming tomorrow… I don’t know how much more of this growing up I can take.

Okay, where are those darn M&Ms!?!

    I know, right!?!?!?!?
    Gesh! I asked my 5 and 1/2 year old (don't you DARE forget the 1/2) son if he'd be 5 again on his next birthday, instead of 6… His response? "Uh, NOOO. SOOOOOO not."
    Yeah. I'm right there with ya.
    Ack.

    I just bought myself some veggie booty to deal with the growing up! ๐Ÿ˜‰ I'm getting all weepy & sentimental more & more each day!

    Sophie & Isabelle are such big girls now!! Beautiful as always!
    And Zach! What a handsome boy he is!

    Kiara has 10 days left of Kindergarten & it's just killing me how fast this year went!

    Our picnic is tonight…have fun at yours!! And go grab some of those M&m's for me too! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I'm so with you on this. Stop it NOW! ๐Ÿ™‚ With one heading to college, another one to high school… Makes me realize how fast time really flies. Sigh. I'd never let Sophie go to school if I could get away with it. Your kiddos are just the sweetest and YES they DO look so much older. Sigh.

    It's time to rip the calendar pages off just a little too fast for my taste!
    Your girlies are so sweet! Beautiful little girls!
