She's old enough to go to school.

I have a Kindergartner!
It makes me horribly sad and excited at the same time.
She is "definitely really excited!"
Which is a good thing based on her past school experiences!

She had a great first day.  They went for 2 hours.  We got up and got ready.  Peyton kept asking can we go yet?  Can we go yet?  I finally told her we would just leave at 7:30...go to meet Adam and Mandy.  School starts at 8:15.  So we went there and took some pictures, then walked to school.  They meet in the gym and sit with their class, then are walked to their classrooms when it's time.  She went right in and told a lady who her teacher was and went and sat down.  I barely got a kiss!  I'm very proud of her.  Mandy, Kalee and I went to have coffee and breakfast with the PTO and waited for them to get out.  She came running out all smiles and said she had a great time!
SUCCESS!!!

Being silly getting ready
I tried to get her to sit on the front step where all of us girls had our first day of school picture taken.
She wasn't having it.  It was too sunny she said.
We went to the back and she was much happier.

They held hands the whole way to school.
Kalee wasn't sure what was happening, I think!
Pawnee Schools!
Still holding hands!
Had a quick visit with Nan before going to the gym.
Walking in like big kids...still holding hands!
Waiting for her teacher.

I Hurt

I hurt my back. It hurts bad. I can hardly nod my head without it hurting. I don't know what happened. But it hurts in case you didn't get that. I took some drugs and have been laying on a heating pad, so it is feeling a little better. I need to run, but just don't know if that will happen tonight. This puts a cramp in my training! (That's my sob story of the day.) ****** Last night Matt was telling me how he just puts Kalee in bed and she stays there and will fall asleep. So I let him show me. Well, he put her in and she started crying and crying. Then we heard her get up. She went into the bathroom...don't know what she did in there. But she came out and closed the door, then went back to bed. We then heard her yelling Blankies, Blankies!! Stuck, Stuck! So Matt went in and got her blankies unstuck and put her back down. She cried some more, then we saw her nightlight go out and heard her door slam shut. She then went into Peyton's room and had a chat with Peyt...

Day 2

Day 2 went just as well as day 1 of Preschool. It seems too good to be true! Oh well, I'll take it! Peyton went right in and did her "jobs" (putting away her bag, folder and picking her drink). Then she went to play with a puzzle and read a book. No tears, no clinging, AWESOME!! Kalee was upset again that she didn't get to stay. She kept saying I want to play with the tractor puzzle at school. So she and I spent the morning playing outside. It's so funny how happy she is once we get home. I think she loves not having the competition for the toys or the bossiness that is Peyton telling her how to play! She had every baby out and every stroller with them. Plus, her tricycle, 4 wheeler, shopping cart, firetruck... I have a new TV obsession...Melrose Place. Sad, but true. I watched it last night and am hooked. Can't wait for next week! There may be a problem though...I think it is at the same time that DWTS is going to be on. Speaking of DWTS...di...

Sunny Monday

We had a fun day today. After Peyton got upset that Daddy and Pop were going to the ball park without her...it was a boys day...we decided to have a girls day. She told me that on girls days, you read stories and sing songs. Well, we haven't done any of those things yet, but we did swim a little in the freezing cold big pool. Then the girls swam in their little pool. They both brought their babies to the pools, so they had fun. I put the solar cover on the pool as soon as I got them out of it!! It's amazing that they don't ever think the water is cold! Peyton sliding with her baby Kalee "swimming." She sat in this little bucket for about 10 minutes! We had lunch and the girls napped. Then we went to the mall play place. I gave them the option of the playground and feeding the ducks or the play place. Peyton wanted the play place. Really, I think they have more fun playing on the little cars that move when you put money in them. They don't even need them to...
