First Day of School For Four!
The first day of school, August 19 2009, was one week ago today. It has taken me this long to post first day pictures. It has been a crazy week! For some reason I am alot more stressed with 4 kids in school and only 1 at home than I was with 5 at home? I guess I need to adjust to the new schedule and get organized. Any pointers? Anyways, here are fabulous first day pictures:
Brooklyn 9 years, Autumn 5 years
Brooklyn loves pink! She is nervous but excited too! She has lost her glasses over summer so we will be going to Lens Crafters to get a new pair AGAIN! Any guesses on what color her new glasses are?
Autumn is so pumped for Kindergarten. I think she will have tons of fun! She was a little disappointed she doesn't get to bring lunch. Only half day kindergarten at our school.
Noah is really excited! He found out that one his friends from church, Gabe, is going to go to Flint Lake too! He is already planning what they will do at recess and they plan to eat together at lunch.
Noah 7 years and Ryan 10 years
Ryan was excited for school. He takes the bus and loves it!
This picture is a little blurry because I had to take it mega fast. They had already gone out to the van and I realized I hadn't taken a picture of all of my four school kids together! So, I made them come back in and get one group picture. As a result...
I had to chase the bus down two stops past ours to get the kids on the bus. The bus driver even let me run get my camera out of the van and come back to get a picture of them getting on the bus. Not a great picture because of the shadow but a fun story of a crazy mommy chasing a bus on the 1st day of school. The kids still laugh about it!
I brought Ryan to school on the first day so I could talk to the teacher. Here he is by his locker at school.
Ryan is excited to see his teacher and pulls up his notebook just as I snap the picture! Aghhhh!
Here is Autumn after kindergarten. She was happy before she saw me and then started crying. That's why she doesn't look too happy in this picture. Why was she crying? I picked her up instead of letting her take the bus home!!!! What a horrible mommy! LOL! I cannot figure this girl out ... oh ... wait a minute ... she's a girl. No wonder! Even mom's can't figure girls out!

It was kinda weird that I had only London (23 months) home but I liked it. I missed my kiddo's and was really excited when they got home and I got to hear about their day.

Night Before School Nerves!
Last week, on August 18, 2009, Brooklyn, Noah and Autumn went to Flint Lake Elementary to meet their teachers for the upcoming year. Tonight is the night before school starts. They are excited but nervous too! Eric had a meeting so I took the three middle kids to the school and my AWESOME friend Brandi watched Ryan and London for an hour or so until Eric could pick them up. We had a great time meeting all the new teachers and I think it will be a great year for everyone!
Autumn's Kindergarten teacher - Mrs. Biggs. She taught Noah the second half of kindergarten the year we moved here. She is really good and we were so excited for Autumn to have her for Autumn's teacher.
Noah's 2nd grade teacher - Mrs. Douthett. She seems really fun and we heard she likes smiley faces!
Brooklyn's 3rd grade teacher - Mrs. Hoffman. She is really energetic! Brooklyn and I both are nervous for 3rd grade! Brooklyn kept whispering to me during the presentation that she didn't know if she could do 3rd grade and I was thinking I didn't know if I could do it either. I am pretty scared to help Brooklyn in 3rd grade ... I may have a Master's degree but 3rd grade might be beyond my reach. Eric may have to head the homework detail this year!
After they met their teachers, I took a picture of them on the bench outside their school. They are all smiles and I think they are excited for a new year! Brooklyn has to go to the whole other side of the building so there will be lots of changes for her this year.
Back to the van, after meet the teacher, with mostly empty school supply boxes and "homework" for Mom. Later that night Eric gave everyone a father's blessing for the new school year and London one just because. Ryan has meet the teacher at his school after school starts! LOL! That's fine -- he has the same teacher he had last year.
Ready or not -- here we come!
