Adjusting to school

A month in, we're finally getting adjusted to Kindergarten! Joshua still doesn't want to go, but he's not coming home completely exhausted, so I think we're going to make it! We went for a haircut this week and they cut Joshua's super-short. It's hard to see in the picture, but the gal who cut it put gel in the front to make more stick up than just his cowlick- it was cute. (Kaylah had hers trimmed.. she doesn't want it long because "Mama's have long hair and she's a kid" but she wants it to touch the floor like a princess.)








Joshua had been sharing his newfound knowledge/activities with Kaylah... this evening we learned how to do jumping jacks! It was dusk, so the video's a little dark, but it's still pretty funny!

Starting School

I'm really behind now, so I'm going to move forward without posting the dozen other pictures I've been trying to get on here for a month now!



Joshua is officially a kindergartener! He was much more excited about school before he went than he is now, but I'm hopping another week with be all he needs to adjust right now he comes home very worn out and tells me "Kindergarten is hard work."



Kaylah wanted to see real ballerinas, so I searched for "ballet" on YouTube and she watched a 15 minute professional performance without blinking. I was ready to find something else after 5 minutes, but she wasn't finished soaking it in. When it did finish I searched for "ballet recitals" instead and those were two minute clips of 3-5 year olds and were very cute!






Sasha finally got Tooth #8 through last week and is now biting me again- it would be so nice if one of her teeth could just slip in unnoticed! She mastered the ladder going up to the slide on Wednesday, so she gets the video spot today! :) I apologize in advance just in case I can't figure out how to rotate the picture.
