My big girl on her first day!

Someone started her first day of kindergarten yesterday!

It went well. Based on what I could surmise, there might have been some busing hiccups (her bus drops off at her school and another one right next door so I'm not sure if she got off too early) but she made it home and she had fun.



She had gym class (her gym teacher is a boy like R and Daddy). She has two friends but can't remember their names. And her teacher is a little bit old (this was her comment upon meeting her teacher at the open house last week).


She was a little shell shocked when she got off the bus. Apparently she took a wee nap on the way home and there was three kids in her seat on the bus. The school lets out shortly before 4pm and she didn't get home until 5:15pm!



They warned us that the buses would run late both for pickup and drop off because of the need to learn faces and buses.

She has today off (they stagger the kindergarten start) and tomorrow is the first day of the rest of her kindergarten career! Now, if only R will keep taking naps....!

How big they've grown!

I am finally getting around to updating our household photos and came across this one of the two monkeys when R was about a month old (so full term). How much they have changed in two years!

 

The new ride

R got a new tricycle for Christmas. Until now, its lived in the basement as a rocking horse type ride. Tonight he got to try it out in the garage!

My flower girl!

It has don't nothing but rain this whole week. This March Break has been very wet. We desperately need the rain but it would be nice for a bit of a break in the rain just for a few hours!

We also realized that someone has outgrown her raincoat. I scored a really cute purple one when T was just a baby and now she's out grown it, at least in the arms. She's had a height growth spurt too!

When she tried this one on at Target, she was in L.O.V.E. I bought the boots on clearance a few seasons ago for the day her feet too would outgrow her beloved Hello Kitty boots.

While Big Sister is away.....

the Little Brother will try on her Dora sunglasses! Have no fear, he has his own Thomas ones in the car!
