Back to School


Walking to school the first day

Trying out the rocking chair in his new class
Summer's over! Back to real life. Routines start again. Hallelujah!!!

Travis is finally in kindergarden!! Was I sad? Not a single bit!! Was he nervous? Not at all! He is loving school. He has gotten a "green light" award everyday for good behavior (yes, I am talking about Travis :) ) He has a good teacher. Unfortunately, he did not get into the school that I wanted him to go to (5th on the waiting list), but oh well. Maybe next year? Since school started they have been working on routines (definitely not academics... colors and the alphabet). Trav is a smart kid! Reading is one of his favorite things to do. He has gotten into The Magic Treehouse books. He also loved to do math "homework". I will make 15 or so math problems (like 56+43) and he thinks it is so fun. Let's hope he always feels this way about homework!!

Sara is back to preschool 3 days a week. I LOVE her preschool. Two of her good friends are in her class this year and she is so excited!! My little girl is a social butterfly! She is getting to be a great little artist. Rainbows are her favorite to color. Sara is starting to write words too. I can't believe she will be in kindergarten next year!!

Um, I bet Kindergarten is WAY too easy for Trav! Seriously, that kid is soooo dang smart. I think I would use my calculator on my phone for that math problem...geez!!! They are both so cute and growing up so fast!
