First Day of School!



Emma woke up this morning before me. I went to go wake her up and she came out saying can I get up yet. We ate breakfast, did hair, got dressed, and made it in time for the opening ceremony that they have. They were both nervous, but JJ did really well. Emma wouldn't let me leave her until it was her classes turn to go inside so I wasn't able to get pictures with JJ and his line for class. Jeron waited with JJ while me and the camera waited with Emma. I wish I had just run over for a minute but it is a mad house...no running would have been possible. So no pictures of JJ :(

When they got home they both said they loved their classes and it was awesome. I am so happy they loved it. Especially Emma, since most of her friends are in the other class.
Ellie got pretty lonely without them. She kept saying "JJ, Ma, Coo"...translated that is JJ, Emma, School. She would then point to the school and say awe in a sad pathetic voice. After a while she did better, we ate lunch and she started playing. I decided that I could get some things done. About 10 minutes into me leaving her (in front of me on the floor while I looked at some bills)she had gone to her room, pooped, taken off her poopy diaper and tried to put on a clean one while spreading poop on the carpet everywhere she went. It is going to be a long school year if this is the sign of things to come.

Too bad about the poop. I feel your pain...Kate pooped in the bathtub the other night. GROSS! But I'm glad the first day of school went well for Emma and JJ.

I can't believe how coordinated she is to do that! I know that sound weird but Jackson is not even close to where she is, she is too cute! Hey, we're thinking Jackson might have autism. Does Ellie do any weird things?

Were you as emotional as I was when your kids went with their classes for the first time? I thought I would be like, WOOHOO! THEY'RE GONE but I kept wanting to check on Clara all day. Carter was sad all day too, but at least we had no poop incidents. That is so funny about Ellie!
