(oops I just caught myself deep in reading and widdling away my time while I waited for pictures to load!)
This is Carson and Wyatt on the first day of school. Wyatt had to wear his back pack as we took Carson to kindergarten. He also pick up a random feather to hold up in the picture...
Carson was so excited for school to start! We were counting down forever, then we went to the open house and when we got home he started to cry and say he didn't want to go. I think he was just overwhelmed... there was so many people at the school and having never been to the school before we didn't know where we were going and I think it made Carson more nervous because I didn't know where to go or what to expect. But the next day he quickly changed his mind after we went back for his kindergarten assessment and had fun with his teacher.
This year Wyatt is three and we planned on him attending preschool, the same one that Carson had for the last 2 years. But we have decided to save more money this year and cut back on some things and this on one of the things we thought we could do with out. But Carson has been telling Wyatt about how fun preschool is and when he is 3 he can go... So not to disappoint I decided to have "preschool" at our house while Carson is at kindergarten. I found a fun little curriculum online plus added some of my own ideas and... Voila! We've been having preschool everyday at 10am (just after I put Owen down for a nap). It's been so fun to spend time with Wyatt, he is learning so much and I get to really see his personality shine through. We have a preschool board that hangs next to the computer that we are using to help organize our "school time."
We've also been doing a lot of fun things as the summer runs out on us... the boys love miniature golf! It was really fun to take them... one of our top 10 outings with the boys. They were so well behaved and had so much fun.... The only problem was that Owen wanted to pick up the balls and throw them everywhere...
This is Owens new perch...
Carson LOVES bowing!!
We also had fun going to seven peaks last Saturday! The boys just had a blast! We had to talk them into going down one of the big slides with a tube (they are the biggest chickens!) and they both said that they didn't like it but the next day they couldn't stop talking about it! They kept saying how brave they were and how much fun it was, I hope they learn to try new things without being so scared....
