Back to school

Miss Excited, who was up at 5:15 yesterday morning. I made her go back to bed and at 6:30 she said "can I get up now Mom?!" I hope she always loves school like this. I'm not holding my breath, but it'll be nice while it lasts.

Mr. Bright Ray of Sunshine himself:
How he really felt about going back to school:
Mr. Groovy. Like, far out, man.
She let me in her classroom to take pictures. She's sweet and agreeable. She's not embarrassed by Mom........yet.


OMG! What is she doing?! Just keep walking and maybe she'll go away!
This is as close to the inside of my classroom that you get. As in you can't come in at all. As in hurry up and take the picture before somebody sees me.

MOOOOOM! GOSH!

They all had a really good day and had very positive things to say when I picked them up. I would say that I have high hopes that it'll continue on that way but I know better. ;)

Oh for crying out loud!

I still can't find my pictures. I'll have to start Tweeting more pictures until I can get things together.

Emmy has started Whimsical practice already, she's so excited about being a "Who" this year. We had to watch last years show one morning this week. The boys were thrilled. She's ready to go back to school, Jacob and Jonah, on the other hand, are NOT. They won't even let me say the word. We've got all backpacks, lunch kits and school supplies ready. Em and I had a nice mother/daughter day this past weekend and we got all of her back to school clothes shopping done then we went to lunch. Caleb is Caleb. He has no interest in pooping on the potty, and I'm losing interest in changing his diapers. I think once the kids are back in school and we're home more, we'll give potty training a good try.

Alrighty, hopefully I'll run across my pictures soon. I've looked in all of the folders on this computer and I KNOW that Basil transferred them...somewhere. Should it be so hard?!
