Monday was the first day of summer break and Alice's last day as a five-year-old. Alice will stay home with me most of the summer (with a few camps here and there for variety). Simon will go to daycare most of the summer, but I'll keep him home with us some days as well.
Since we'd gone to the pool Saturday and Sunday, we decided to go for a bike ride for our Monday morning activity. We have a lovely greenway right by our house that connects two playgrounds. Alice loves riding her bike!
Then it was back home for a snack. I let Alice cut her own strawberries using a real knife. She was pretty bad at it, but didn't cut herself.
Then Alice put on her formal wear for a trip to Harris Teeter for groceries. She became obsessed with playing with the bear the honey came in, and lost her sunglasses at some point, but otherwise behaved herself.
