The Bus Stop!!

The Gang at our Bus Stop this year GREW by 4 KIDDOS!

What a great group of kids!!

1st Day of School 2008 - 2009

WOW! The first Day!
I can not believe how the summer flew by!

Emily started Kindergarten, Danny started 1st grade, and Bailey Started 2nd grade!

They each LOVED
the first day, teachers were awesome, they each met new friends and got to see old ones on the playground and mom enjoyed the few hours of quiet time to her self! Great Day for all!!!

Getting READY FOR THE BIG DAY!!!

We shopped for our "First Day Outfits" , bought TONS of lunch items, took showers, had ice cream for snack, in bed by 8:30pm. The girls could not settle down. I had to tell them they would loose privileges if they did not go to sleep and stop giggling (but inside I remembered the night before the first day excitement and jitters) I would stay awake most of the night, but finally about 10pm they had calmed enough to fall asleep.

Danny on the other hand, wanted nothing to do with the shopping if it would not include him getting Pokemon cards at the store. I did get him a new outfit (and I was excited that he liked it). He got right into bed and when I made it into him to kiss and hug goodnight he had already started to fall asleep, I whispered "are you sleeping" his reply"I cant fall asleep with out a kiss from you"

Man, they make you so glad you are a Mom!!!!!
Wish me luck on putting all three on the bus tomorrow, big blubbering idiot I will be!!!!!!

Kindergarten Orientation

Thursday morning there we were up and ready to go meet the teacher for Emily. Cheryl called and asked for Danny and Bailey to come over and play with the kids so she could get some stuff done (Bailey just takes care of Kennedy like she has been babysitting for years). Emily was upset at first that she wanted them to go with her ( I think she was wanting the comfort of her big sis and brother with her to help her out). After I explained to her that she would have me all to herself she quickly changed her attitude.

So she is now very excited, she got to ride the bus home to "Practice" and she is ready to go to Kindergarten.

I DON'T CARE HOW TUFF I ACT, THIS MOMMA'S GONNA BE CRYING HER EYES OUT AT 8:30 AM MONDAY MORNING!!!!!

Meet the Teacher

Bailey and Danny had meet the teacher night on Tuesday, they are both extremely happy with who they got. They looked and acted like old pros in that building. Tomorrow is Emily's meet the teacher and she is nervous and excited.

Oh yeah, Bailey got to pick up 1 pair of her new glasses last night. She has gone back and forth with them and she really likes that she can read words much better now that she has them.!!! The other pair got broke at the lens lab..............Darn it those were the ones that Dan liked the least.................... She went today to pick out a new pair and they are even cuter than the blue ones. We will post pictures when she gets them.
