Back To School!

School has officially started, which means I pick up my niece Hannah from the bus stop when her dad is working. My sister works a 9-5 job Monday-Friday and her husband is a police officer that works 4 days on 4 days off. So, when he is working I pick her up so my sister can save money on daycare.

Since school has started, we have gone to the Public Library, which is 2 blocks away from my house. We have made homemade chocolate chip cookies, and read lots of books. She helps me with Alden.

Normally, we will get back to the house, she will start her homework, which is a worksheet because she is only in 1st grade. I will make her a snack while she works and Alden and her will eat. Then, we will read a book, play a game, bake something, cook something, blow bubbles, play with sidewalk chalk... Anything we can think of. I have really enjoyed her coming over.
