Monday Lauren started preschool. She loved it! I was a bit nervous because ever since I have talked about her going to preschool she has said, "I go preschool ALL by MYSELF?!?" Last year we did a mommy and me preschool...so this year would be some change. Once she got her Tinker Bell "pack pack" (aka back pack) she has been thrilled. I think meeting her teacher Miss Lesly, at orientation also helped. With pack pack in hand Lauren walked in and didn't turn back! She was so brave and loved every minute! I thought I was going to be sad...of course I missed her. but I was just so proud of my little baby girl!! Who is growing up!! She brings so much joy to our lives! and I am just so happy to have her in our family!
The highlights in Lauren's 1st day of preschool were:
playing on the playground, painting with her favorite colors, reading books, singing songs, snack time, and she was good, "Mom I only did good things...not bad things!" You could say the day was a success!!
WE LOVE YOU LAUREN!!
***ANYONE that can help...why are my pictures crappy on my blog? Do I need to resize them before uploading!? It's ticking me off. They look good normally just not on the blog. any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Zach started 3rd grade yesterday! Ahh! I can't believe my baby is in 3rd grade. When I was lacing up his new school shoes I couldn't believe how big they were. Where has the time gone! He is growing up so fast! Lauren and I were sad to see him go back. The house is awfully quiet with Lauren in preschool and now Zach in school! I am excited for Zach to get back into the school thing and make new friends! He will do great! and it's always fun to see the growth with each year! WE LOVE YOU ZACH and are so HAPPY your ours!!
Zach had his 1st soccer game on Saturday. I almost said forget it. It was awfully hot. I mean HOT! When I signed him up for soccer I thought Vegas people would only play a sport if it was reasonable weather. Either I am not adjusted to the temp. or people are crazy. I seriously felt bad for Zach out on the field running. I tried to be a positive cheerleader! :) Zach told the coach he wanted to be goalie part of the game, which he did awesome at...smart move required less running! :) Zach played great and we were so proud of him! I look forward to the season...especially once it cools down!
