2 Weeks Down

Well, as of today Allen has 2 weeks of kindergarden under his belt. He LOVES every minute of it. However, he is quite the tired little bear by the time he gets home at night. In some respects it's been nice having both kids in bed by 8 pm.

Allen says his favorite part of school is when he gets to go to the library to pick out a book. That totally suprises me......aren't most kids most excited about recess? :) Maybe I will have a bookwork (keeping my fingers crossed).

His first 2 weeks of school have been pretty uneventful.....well, except for his first day of riding the bus. I took him to school and picked him up on the first day. So, day #2 he got on the bus at our house in the morning, no issues there. BUT his ride home wasn't as smooth. He is to get off the bus at his daycare in the evenings. So, the bus driver pulls up in her driveway, opens the door, shuts the door, and pulls off.......no kid gets off the bus. Tina frantically started calling me and Greg. For about a half an hour we had no idea where our 5 year old little boy was. It turns out the school called the bus driver while he was still in route and the bus driver found Allen still in a seat on the bus. The driver says he fell asleep, but Allen still denies that. Ends up the bus took Allen back to the school and the Superintendent & the Principal delivered him to daycare. I was soooooooo angry. I mean HELLO, the bus driver pulls up, doesn't let a kid out, and pulls off.......what is clue #1??????? All I can say is that better not happen again or they may have a mean mamma on their hands :)

Reagan is doing great......nearing 10 months old now. She can stand in place without holding on to anything for a few seconds. She is so determined. I think her and Allen are night and day different, but others disagree.

Well.........ta ta til next time.

Sick Kids

I haven't posted here in quite a while. We have been dealing with sick kids for almost 2 weeks now. Allen had the stomach flu.....luckily that only lasted about 24 hours. BUT little Miss. Reagan has been a mess. She has run a low fever, broke out in a rash, runny nose, cough, teething, and an ear infection. Whew, I am wore out just typing all that junk.....can't imagine how horribly she has been feeling. She has been on antibiotic for about 2 days now, so hopefully we will start seeing some improvement.

We are gearing up for Allen's first day of Kindergarten (Aug. 18). He is soooo super excited, but Mom is having a really hard time dealing with her "baby" going to school. Last night I was organizing his school supplies and I was putting his name on everything (Greg said I was crazy for doing that), but I don't think so. Allen is going to an open house at school tonight to meet his teacher again and get familiar with the classroom.

Not much else going on......................
