Firsts

Big happenings at the Bishop house this week! Henry had his first day of school today...it couldn't have been a more perfect morning. It only took him a few minutes to warm up to the teacher and jump in to play with the kids. Today's theme was 'stars'....twinkle twinkle little star was sung.....he made artwork of stars....heard a story about shooting stars.....and got a goodbye star stamp on his hand. He really enjoyed every minute of it.

Brooke had her first tasting of cereal. We tried quinoa...mixed with a little banana. Mom's not convinced she needs the food yet so we might put it on hold. But we tried it bc the doc said to!

Niagra Falls

quick side trip to Niagra when we went to visit Grandpa Sternowski for his 90th birthday. Birthday pics are still coming....
