First day of school 2012

1st day in the 1st grade...

 New 4th grader


At the bus stop (we love to throw the football around while we wait for the bus and now Christian gets to join!)


  It was a pretty smooth start to the school year.  Christian was super excited the first day and was way ahead of the schedule/time table we set up for getting ready and out the door in the morning.  He didn't want me to take him to school.  He wanted to ride the bus and have Austin take him to his class.  Very sweet.  Austin seems to like his class and his teacher but the thought of all that school work ahead gets him down a little.  I think this year will be a challenge for Ezra.  We will have to plan some more fun activities.  He is a little lost without his brothers, especially now that Christian is in full day school.  We are looking into preschools again.  I had tried to get him in the one Christian went to 2 years ago but they have changed their program to  5 days a week so I am now belatedly looking into a backup plan.  In the meantime, we are doing some Spanish lessons at home and some other preschool type activities that have been fun.  He loves games too.  Its all an adjustment, as I went back to work this week too.  The 2nd day of school we all came home tired and grumpy.  I look forward to the days when the adjustment period is behind us.  I am also looking forward to being able to volunteer at school a little and to get to know the teachers and other students better and watching these boys grow and learn this year!
