Emma had her first day of her 2nd year of preschool today. :) She gets to go to Head Start this year and she LOVED her first day there. She has some really great
teachers and lots of cute kids in her class. We are going to miss having Emma around - she goes to her preschool Monday-Friday from 8:30 to 12:30! Becca cried the whole way home after dropping her off this morning because she didn't want Emma to go. It was a rather miserable drive home, but also kind of cute that Becca misses her sister so much. They really have become best pals lately. I love listening to them have funny conversations when they are both in bed for the night. They're so cute.This evening I took the girls to Pump It Up for their FREE play night! They played for a whole hour and had a blast - I had a blast just knowing it was all free. hehe. I was very impressed with Becca... she climbed up to the top of the big slide and went down all by herself several times. She also braved through a couple inflatable obstacle courses with a huge smile on her face - also all by herself. She's getting so big!

So, this past Friday we did a little celebration amongst ourselves because summer was officially ending and the school year about to begin. We had cupcakes (with
Emma's request of purple frosting) and ran around in the sprinklers in the backyard. Even I ran around and got soaked in my clothes... the girls were being lame and didn't want to get wet, so I tried to show them how fun it is! Emma fell for it and had a great time, but Becca just ran in once (against her will) and then preferred to sit on the sidelines with daddy. In the end we all enjoyed our cupcakes (I enjoyed a few too many). Goodbye summer and hello to school days!
Emma looks so happy. Pre-school will be great for her as she's social and likes to learn things.
ReplyDeleteThat's a little sad that Becca misses Emma but I think she'll adjust, especially if she suddenly gets extra attention from mommy. This has got to be a little easier on you than having all the kids every minute of the day. The drive itself breaks up the day a bit and can be a perfect time to run errands.
Hooray for school and moving on..
They are so precious. It's fun to watch your kids become friends, huh? Bri had a wonderful experience in headstart as well. It really helped prepare her for 5 days a week of kindergarten.
ReplyDeleteher back pack is as big as she is!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't the 3rd photo appear that the girls are sinking into the tube slide?
ReplyDeleteEmma is such a great student, congrats! Soon Becca can go too.
