Hello School

Today the boys were up extra early, and ready to go to school. They were a little excited and a bit nervous too. We even left the house ten minutes early. Both of the boys made it to school just fine, and we dropped by to say hi to preschool too. Agnes and I are going to enjoy a much needed quiet day at home today.

I hope the boys have a fantastic day at school. I also hope that they have a great year too.

Thade starts fifth grade today.

Dylan is in the second grade.

Agnes will be joining her brothers this year, she starts preschool in a week.

As for today, we’ll be spending some girl time, and enjoying the quiet. I can’t wait to hear all about their first day back to school though. Happy Thursday everybody!

Getting Ready For School

This week we have been getting back to the school routine, and getting supplies too. Last weekend we took the boys to pick up their new glasses, and all three kids to buy new school supplies too.

The boys like their glasses. I think that Dylan looks super cute in his first pair.

Back to school shopping was a bit harrowing. The boys were none too pleased with shopping for school, but Agnes was extra excited. We came home with everything on three different lists, and even came in under budget too. I’ve got everything organized in the kitchen, and ready for the first day of school.

Last night was preschool enrollment for Agnes. We all went along with her, she was a little nervous. Once she spotted her teachers, and remembered the classroom, she lit up, ran around, and was already making friends. All of her paperwork was in order, and she will start preschool in September.

She was so excited all day for enrollment, she crashed out shortly after dinner. I think all of that preschool planning and excitement completely wore her out.

We still have a few weeks before school starts. I have the boy’s enrollment next week. I hope it goes well, and maybe they will cheer up a little if they spot some of their friends at enrollment too. I’m going to enjoy these last few days of lazy Summer while we have them.
