First Day of School

So, today was the first day of school.  I should be putting an exclamation point on that, but I was not excited.  I am going to miss my boys.  So is Jill.  She has no idea what is in store for her.

But here are some cute pictures of the drop off.  Mom held back the tears, but only until the boys couldn't see!

Josh, clearly thrilled to be at school.

Big Bro helps him out.

With Ms. Ramey.  Who wouldn't be smiling now?

Jake wouldn't allow us in the room, so this was the best I could do.

Baby Jay is here!

Jake, Josh and Jill have a new cousin!

Jay Andrew Squillante arrived Aug 21 at 5:38 am.  Mommy (and Daddy) was tired, but thrilled.  He is 20 inches long and 7 pounds.

I went up to the hospital at 3:30 am to await his arrival.  I took the rest of the fam the next afternoon to visit.  So cute.  They loved meeting him.  Except Jill, who just wanted her Auntie Courtney to herself.

He was so gung ho to hold him.  He is a natural now!

Josh was more nervous but excited.

Jill was happy to have Jay removed from "her" spot!

Now, after seeing the babies in the nursery, Jill seems like she might want to get close.

And then she didn't want to let go!

Our family with Jay.

Jill and Courtney share a snack before leaving.  I think she just wanted some Boppy action.

Jill Swims!

So, when we were at the pool this afternoon, Jill started swimming from the steps to me, all by herself!  It was so exciting and we managed to get a video.  In this video she chooses to skip mom and go to GranDeb.
