Chloe played in her first soccer game this morning at 8:00!!! It was so fun to watch 4 year old little girls play! Everyone wins in 4 year old soccer, but if we were taking score, then the other team would have outscored us!

Chloe is #3 on the Boomers! :) The uniforms are BURNT ORANGE!! Woo-Hoo!

Kyle's First Day of PRESCHOOL!

Kyle with the family brick.

This big boy goes into his classroom without any help.

Not wanting to take his backpack off!

He was fine a few minutes later as he played with cars and planes.

Today was Kyle's first day of preschool. Kyle will go on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings. Monday and Wednesday will be longer days for him since he will be staying for the after school program until 3:30.

On the way to school, we talked about the the right way to act at school like being nice to friends, sharing, no yelling, no hitting, no screaming...he was repeating me when I was saying these things. I thought we were off to a great start!

He was so excited! I didn't realize how much he liked his backpack until we got into the room. He threw a little fit when the teacher asked him to put his backpack on the hook. Great way to start off! I got him to calm down, and then I left.

I was a nervous wreck all day, but when Everett picked him up, they said he had a good day! They had a little bit of difficulty getting him off the playground, but it was not the tantrum I thought they might encounter. I packed 2 pairs of underwear for him, because I wasn't sure if he would go potty if he was having so much fun, but he used the potty by himself all day long! Yea!

Here's some video of the big boy walking in his new school!

Chloe's First Day of JR. KINDER!

This is the brick we purchased last Spring. They made a walkway with all the bricks.

Today was Chloe's first day of Junior Kindergarten. She will go 5 days per week from 8:30-11:30. She has 8 children in her class...4 girls and 4 boys. She had so much fun the first day, and she can't wait to go back tomorrow!

The school has expanded this year with a new building and a new outdoor classroom/courtyard.
