Back to school Superman!

Kieran started back to KIM school today. He was very excited to get back see his friends and feed the fish :) His teachers tell us he had a good day and only one accident. Apparently he was so tuckered out that he was asking to go to sleep after lunch- he was asking to get ready for bed tonight too- guess they wear him out at school!

Not happy...

A bit sad still...

Dad's making him laugh...

Happy! Finally a good off to school shot :)

Packing up to go home from school.

Kieran in his classroom in front of the fish tank- he gets to feed them in the morning :)

Mommy and Kieran leaving school- a lovely day, 72* and sunny- perfect day to go back!

On another note, Kiearn has recently become obsessed with Superman and all things super hero. After catching a bit of a Superman movie at my folk's house, he has been saying things like, "SUPERMAN!", "Up, up, up AWAY!", "Superman saves the day!" and "Change up!" (this one means he is "changing" from Clark Kent into Superman! He has been watching old Superman cartoons from the 1940's and Superfriends from the 1970's. Rick's mom (Nene Orange) dug up a bunch of old action figures and Kieran has LOVED playing with Superman, Batman and Aquaman- inside, on the train tracks, outside and even in the tub! He has also taken to wearing capes and "flying" all around the house- which of course is completely adorable- as I am sure you can imagine! We started out with capes made of toilet paper, graduated to dish towels and now Kieran has a personalized cape ordered from Etsy complete with his own "K" emblem- too cute!

Run super boy!

The towel cape :)

"Peep-eye!"

"Change-up!"

Super chef!

Enjoying a dessert in yet another cape, his new superman shirt and sandals- of course ;)

Nene orange helps Kieran get a little more chocolate in ;)

Super Kieran! The new cape came in the mail today!

Too cool!

At the park over Labor Day weekend- perfect weather!

Mmmmm! Shakespears pizza! Kieran eats the meat first, then the cheese and then finally the crust- perfect!

The end of August

Kieran with his "James" underwear on his head, wearing them as a hat. This is a favorite pass-time at nana/papa's house, especially if Presley is there to participate too!

Kieran giving Presley some underwear to put on her head... so helpful ;)

Playing with bubbles in the pool at nana's house

More bubble fun

Nana and papa have been keeping Kieran this week and the last as his school is on summer holiday until after Labor Day. Last Friday, they had Presley over as well and nana decided it would be fun to take both kids to Flipz- of course the kids LOVED this!!

Apparently, Kieran was Presley's shadow the entire morning at Flipz and she had to remind him on more than one occasion to "stop following!" her ;)

Papa is putting in some playground equipment and had a truck load of dirt delivered to help level out the site. As you can imagine, Kieran was THRILLED!

This boy likes dirt so much he swims in it- sometimes he tastes it too ;)

I think this might be a look we will see a lot more of in Kieran's teen years.

Splish!

Splash! Kieran's loves to play in nana's birdbath!

Papa helps Kieran clean some of the dirt off...

That's two very dirty boys!

Kieran at home, jamming to some tunes- School House Rock ;)

He was very into mom's Ipod.

The last days of summer and the 1st day at school

 Kieran passed out on the sofa with nene orange after a date night. Note the orange Cheeto dust covering his face- Kieran and grandma always have lots of fun ;)

Kieran wearing two of my shoes, no pants and toting my stuffed bunny around (yes- I still sleep with this thing- have since I was a little girl- looks like Kieran maybe adopting it!)

A parting shot ;)

Kieran in Rick's shoes getting ready to do some cooking- as you can see he has a thing for trying on our shoes!

Kieran doing a little cleaning in his kitchen- he really does have clothes but he seems to prefer his birthday suit- and who can blame him- look how cute it is!

A lunch-date with mommy at India House. Kieran loved the tandori chicken and sweet rice. He sat opposite me like a big boy and even drank from an actual glass as I had forgotten his sippy cup in the car.

Kieran at Cosmo Park with daddy- looking pretty cool!

This is why we have sand all over our house!

A boy and his very large stick ;)

Kieran's first sack lunch for KIM school- roasted chicken, carrots, grapes, pita chips and yogurt dip- mmmm!

Getting ready to go into school for his first full day- note the granola bar- he take nearly an hour every morning to eat- so we decided he is going to have to eat on the way to school- today it was veggie-sausage patty, fruit and a granola bar- worked pretty good the first time...

On his way in the door- such a big boy!

Kieran's first full day at KIM school went pretty well. He did great in the morning except for an accident on the playground- just couldn't get to the bathroom in time. Apparently nap was a bit rough and so was wake up- but the up side is that he seems excited to go back tomorrow. Rick is doing drop-off without me the rest of the week, which should help the transition a little. I will be sure to post more pics and updates of Kiearn's time at his new school. We are very excited and I didn't even cry at drop-off... I just can't believe we have such a big boy all of a sudden- they aren't kidding when they say, "They grow up so quick!"

Some cute pics: A study in green ;)

Neko wanted to get in on the love-in

Kieran getting ready to walk out the door (sans shoes!) for another visit at his new school- note the pack-back... he is very, very excited about it ;)

Such a big boy :)
