Kayla's Preschool Adventures: September

Kayla's preschool teachers do an excellent job of taking pictures and sending them out to the parents so we can see all the fun they are having.  Here are a few things that happened during September.

The Trike a Thon!  Since Kayla hasn't quite learned how to ride a bike, we brought her plasma car.  She can go fast on that thing! 
When the weather is bad, they have an indoor play area. 






They go outside for 30 minutes each day.  It's become a habit to dump her shoes out in the garage on a regular basis. 
Each class has an animal mascot.  She is in the monkey class (which is perfect for her).  I am excited to watch how she grows and learns to be more independent.  Great job Kayla!

Kayla's First Day of Preschool

Kayla started preschool this year.  She goes three days a week.  She was more than ready to get out and be with other kids! 
I love her goof ball smile. 


Another preschool duffle bag to add to our collection.  Have a great year Kayla!!!

First Day of School 2014

Carson and Abigail are off to school!  School starts late in VA.  They were ready to get back into the school routine and see friends again.   





Waiting at the bus stop.  Always lots of people to talk to while you wait for the bus.  Kayla loves going to pick them up from the bus stop because some of the mom's will bring their dogs with them. 


Another great year ahead of them!

Last Day of School!

Last day of school today!  I forgot to take my camera to the bus stop today, so all I have are pictures we took before school. 


 
Next year I'll have a third grader and a first grader.  Stop growing up so fast!!!

November in 1 post

I am trying really hard to get caught up on the blog.  So in an effort to do so, here is our November all in one blog post! 

November 2: Free Monster Pancakes day at IHOP (it was originally supposed to be on Halloween, but they had some issues that day and had to close, so they honored it all weekend)



November 4: Here I am at 15 weeks pregnant.  This was a very rare day when I was feeling good, so I actually got dressed that day!  Which is also another reason why this is the first pregnancy picture I have bothered taking. 

November 9: A certain little girl found some of my lipstick and decided to give it a try


November 12: Abigail's class was celebrating 50s Day at school and she really wanted to wear a poodle skirt that day

Me, being the super cool mom that I am, went out the day before and bought all the stuff to make this skirt for her.  Thank goodness for awesome online tutorials! 

November 15: Carson's 2nd grade class was having their Fall Enrichment (they aren't allowed to officially have parties, so they call them enrichments).  Each class was doing a different activity.  His class was writing letters to the troops.  My job was to hand out stickers.  :-)   





It was really fun to be in his class and see all the cool things he is learning/working on.  He is in a reading group with a few other kids in the class and it's like a mini book-club.  They read fun chapter books and discuss them.  He loves it! 


 
November 26: Abigail's class had their Thanksgiving Feast.  Each kindergarten class made a "feast" of chicken nuggets, biscuits, chocolate pudding, peas, popcorn and trail mix.  They also tie dyed shirts to look like deer skin shirts, made pilgrim hats and Indian head bands, necklaces, and made drums.  It's a big event and I was lucky enough to get to attend/help! 
Each child got to say what they were thankful for.  Abigail said she was thankful for her fish. 


All the kids chose an Indian name.  Abby chose "Happy Bunny."

First Day of School

It's the first day of school!  This year I had to send off two of my babies.  :-( 




 I was not ready to send her to kindergarten.  She still seems too little to be going to elementary school. 

 The only thing that made me feel better about putting her on the bus was the fact that she has Carson's kindergarten teacher and I absolutely ADORE her! 





 Normally Andrew takes them to the bus in the mornings, but I tagged along for the first day. 
 Holding back the tears...

 Back from their first day! 

 To celebrate, we went to Wendy's and got frostys. 


 She got one too for keeping me company while the older ones were gone.  At least I get to keep her at home for a few more years!
