School has started!

School has started for 2015-2016. Kade is in 4th grade, Kyle is in 1st grade, Connor is in SK (senior kindergarten) and Cam is going to half day PK (pre-kindergarten). Kade started on Tuesday, September 1st, Kyle and Connor started on September 2nd. Cam started on Thursday for only an hour half the first few days. One day Eric told him he could walk with to school. When I told him he couldn't he really started to cry. When the day finally came that Cam could walk with his daddy and brothers, everyone was super excited. They absolutely love walking together. All of the boys were really glad school was starting. Kade really likes his class because his best friend Josh is in it. I have decided to be part of TISPA (PTA) which actually takes up some of the free time I thought I was going to have. But the boys love seeing me volunteering at school and helping out. Cam loves going to school. He has been the easiest one to drop off. No separation anxiety at all.

 

Kade is already at the age where he thinks taking pictures is silly. At least I was able to take this one on orientation day.

 

His first day of school.

 



Kyle and Connor on orientation day. They met their teacher and made name cards for their cubbies.

 



First day of school for everyone else. Second day for Kade.

 



Cam didn't have to go to school until 1, but he was still really excited to go.

 



Waiting for the security guard to tell us Cam can go to class. I need to add that this is the third year in a row that it rained on the first day of school. Luckily, it wasn't raining too bad when the boys had to walk to school.

 



Cam walked right in to his class. He put his water bottle in the bin, his backpack in his cubby and his hat on his hook. After all that was done he sat down by the little boy who was already there and started playing. He could really have cared less that I was gone.

 



On the second day that I went to pick him up his teacher thought they still had another half hour. She was trying to find music on the computer. Of course Cam was really interested in that. When she walked away she left her phone on the desk. Cam thought it would be fun to start playing with it. Luckily the TA saw him and took it away from him before he could break it.

All of senior kindergarten does a blog. Here are some pictures that were of Connor.

 



 

It is so nice having a schedule. Even though I miss the boys, I don't miss trying to think of things for them to do. I am especially grateful Cam is in school. I know he is learning so much more than he would at home. Last year he just stared at me while I cleaned up after everyone and went grocery shopping.

 

Sister Susana picked up Cam one day while I was getting my hair done. When she was working she noticed it was really quiet. When she went to find Cam she couldn't see him. Finally she saw a little foot sticking out from underneath our bed. He fell asleep under the bed. Silly boy!
