And so it Begins....

School is back in session

Z started Kindergarten this year. I have mixed emotions about that. I am excited but today was hard to drop him off. He will be going from 8:30-3:20, yep no 1/2 day schedules here! Even though we will miss him during the day it will be good for him to be involved with other kids on a regular basis and not to mention all the learning he will be doing and fun he will be having. He has a great teacher, Ms. Smithson. She has been teaching Kindergarten for 32 years, she is wonderful and I know Z will grow to love her so much. He told me "Mom, I don't want you to take me, I want to ride the bus." So, this week I drove him but starting Monday he will get to ride the bus :o)

A started Preschool this week! She has two teachers, Ms. Laurel and Ms. Betsy. She is excited to be back and even more so because two kids from her class last year are with her again this year! She keeps asking, "When do I get to go to Kindergarten and ride the bus?" She wants to be big just like her brother. Her turn will come soon enough :o)

S is all over the place and tries to get where she is going quicker by running. She is also trying to use a spoon at the table but at times still decides her fingers work better :o)

Not only have the summer activities ended but we are also getting a little break in the weather....Finally!! We have enjoyed being outside riding bikes and playing at the park since it hasn't been too hot. The kids have been waiting a long time to be outside...fall is definitely around the corner.

So what to do with this extra time?...Well I will finally be able to put my jogging stroller to use!! Running at the park and of course since we're already there....play a little too!
