Movin on up!

We have been debating this for a very long time...even years. What to do with miss Madison and her September birthday??? She is 11 days off of the cut off date for school. Should we push her in early or hold her back? We have always felt that Madison was very smart and very mature for her age, but just didn't know what to do. We put her in the 3's program at school to see how she would do being the oldest in her class.

We met with her teacher after two weeks at school. She told us that Madison was the highest in her class and that she already knows all of the curriculum for the year. It was her suggestion that we look into putting her in the 4's program. Luckily there was one opening in the 4's pre-K program, So...we moved her up and she will be in Kindergarten next year. Hard to believe my little girl is growing up so fast. Way to go smarty pants!

The Jack

Okay, I am working on a post to cover all of the craziness that has gone on this past week, but I couldn't resist posting these pics first. I am so in love with this little boy!!!

First Day of School

Here are a few pics from the kids first day of school...

Madison started Pre-School. She is having so much fun and thinks she runs the school. We are so proud of her and how smart and beautiful she is.

Case is in first grade. Wow...where has the time gone. So many changes for him and he is growing so fast. He is doing great and loving school. He even loves doing homework...we will see how long that lasts.

Jack and I get a lot more alone time now. We miss the other kids, but it is so fun to see him learn and grow. I don't have a recent picture, so I will have to add one soon...Love this kid!

Today

Just thought I should mention that today would have been my parents 50th wedding anniversary. Happy Anniversary! Miss you Dad!

Starting Over Again...

I think a year and a half is a long enough break from blogging. We have had so much happen over this past year and a half that I am sad that it is not on the blog. But, there is no way that I can go back and put it all in, so we will just have to start from right now. I am terrible at keeping a journal and scrap booking, so this is my way to do it. Wish me luck!
