Reece's First Day of First Grade

He is so excited to be a First Grader and to be going back to James Bilbray ES.

This is his teacher Mrs. Karen Jensen, she is wonderful!

This is his student teacher Mrs.Angela Snith, she is so sweet!

He was so happy to take a pic with his mama.

Reece was a little bit nervous about first grade, he brought his blanket into school with him. I read him a book called "The Kissing Hand" and walked him to his line. He was so nervous he complained of a belly ache. I know he had a great day because he couldn't stop talking about all the fun he had.

Raine's First Day of Pre-K

She was not so happy to be back in school and really wanted to stay home with Reece & I.

I was able to take Raine to school this year because she started a week earlier than the public schools. We stopped at Dunkin Doughnuts for a back to school treat on our way.

Only 4 yr olds are all ready for school and then spill their juice down the front of themselves right before we are ready for first day of school pictures.

Reece took this one of Raine and I.

How cute is this?

Raine said she had a great day! She loves being in Miss Donna's class just like her big brother. Daddy said she was an old pro and even took a nap!

Dog Days of Summer

We have had some relaxing days in the "new" old house. We seem to be settling in and adjusting to our much smaller space. It is taking some getting used to, but we are able to make it work. Raine loves playing in the sprinkler and with her Dora kitchen in her pretty blue bedroom. Reece really enjoys riding his Batman bike on flat roads instead on the hill on our old street. He has been working very hard at his reading and writing this summer. I am very proud of both my kiddos, they have transitioned very well. Thanks Lord!
