All Girls...

My sister-in-law, Megan, emailed me these pictures. I love them! This is her 2 girls, Olivia and Sophie. I can't believe we are adding another girl to the mix. If she is as beautiful as these 4 we are in trouble!

First Week of School....Done!

So this is the result of an exhausting week for Landree. Since she has no more nap times she sleeps on the way home from school every day. Poor Girl. She really had a great week. She was ready and eager to go every morning. We will see what the next few weeks bring. On Tuesday she has school pictures and Wednesday is Open House. Another busy week next week. I love it!

School Update

Well so far so good with Kindergarten. It takes awhile to pry information out of Landree or just out of the blue she'll say something and a light bulb goes off in my head- "oh, that's what she's learning". On Monday she had music class and said she got to play the xylophone and she remembered the beat and sang a song about how xylophone was with x-ray. Why in the world was xylophone spelt with a X anyway? No wonder phonics are so hard! Yesterday I asked if she had gym she said, "No, we had E.P." I went "uhh, do you mean P.E." She said they walked, tip-toed, and jugged backwards. Again we said "do you mean jogged?". She also started singing a song after bath last night. Something about 5 monkeys hanging on a tree and getting eaten by alligators. Al said imagine the visual on that one! It's been fun- she has a bunch of homework to catch up on. The last couple nights she hasn't wanted to do any of it. We are so in trouble in a couple years!

After School

Well she made it through her first day of kindergarten! Al and I picked Landree up after school today. Of all days it was raining when we got to the school. Did I mention it hardly ever rains in Vegas? She said she had a good day. She liked her teacher and said she was really nice. Landree said she didn't have enough time to eat all of her lunch. Well all that was left was 2 bites of her sandwich and she quickly gobbled them up. She said they went to recess twice. When we were leaving the school a little boy goes, "bye Landree". She just grinned. I said, "You're already making lots of friends." She just shook her head. I couldn't get any other information out of her. No naps in all day kindergarten- so we'll see how much of a stinker she is tonight!

Oh, since she didn't get "sent to the office or in trouble with Mrs. Heimark" she got a slurpee on the way home! Hopefully that will warrant good behavior every day- just not a special treat with it.

Sunglasses

I had to add a couple of pictures of Lily. She loves sunglasses and we have about 10 pairs for her to choose from. This morning when Al was getting Landree's lunch ready Lily had to get her Dora lunchbox. She wanted to fill it with fruit, chips, etc.. Finally she settled for a bottle of water and a stuffed animal. She wants to do everything that big sister does. In 2 short years she will be right where Landree was today, starting kindergarten.

Landree's First Day of Kindergarten!

I can't believe the day is here! It seems like I was just pregnant with Landree and now she is starting kindergarten. Time has flown by. I am so proud of my big girl. The day started out great. Landree picked out what she wanted for lunch, which she thought was pretty exciting, especially since she is so picky. The only drama we had this morning was what shoes she was going to wear with her dress. I figure I will be having that arguement a lot of mornings for the next 10 years. I didn't think I would cry this morning, but I got choked up when she got in line to go into the building. I then was tearful when we walked to the car. I am so excited and nervous for her. I hope she has an amazing day and loves school. I will let you know how it goes!
