First day of School

The girls are in the same class again this year. They have Mrs. Kinder and are in second grade. They love her so far and I have been very impressed with all the FUN activities that she does with the kids. They are much more "style conscious" this year. I feel I deserve a Mother of the Year award for letting them have some of the clothes they got this year, especially the shoes. Matthew came home the day they got them and they ran to him in the entryway. Matthew said all he could see was lights coming at him! Then he told them the lights on those shoes could give someone seizures. Lol!

Jacob now goes to school three time a week for two and a half hours. He was disappointed that he wasn't going to the girls school this year but was glad to see Miss Tiff again this year. Jake too had to have a pair of light up shoes. At the counter when I was paying for them I told I swore no kid of mine was ever going to have light up shoes. He slept in them the first night. It was so cute. Eli runs and grabs them when Jake takes them off and darts to his room and shuts the door so he can put them on. It is the funniest thing to see in the world! My mom felt sorry for Eli and bought him a pair. Oh the moves the boys makes to get those shoes to light up....

Eli is very sad that he doesn't get to go to school with Jacob. He cries almost everyone morning for a few minutes. Carrying around his "pack-pack" while the kids at school seem to make it better. He likes to put his coloring pages in the "pack-pack" and a show in tell item each Friday. When we went to the doctors office last week he insisted on taking it and put his blanket and pacifier in it for safe keeping. He looks adorable carrying it around!
