I did not keep up on our summer activities but it is that time of year and I knew I had to post back to school!! I am not sure how I feel about all the milestones in such a short time.
Addey was excited to go back to school. Last year she had Mrs. Wagstaff and at the end of the year she got her letter saying who her first grade teacher would be. I had heard some rumors of some changes but I did not say anything until we got the letter in the mail the beginning of August saying that Mrs Wagstaff would be moving to first grade and Addey would have her again. It took some time to convince Addey that she had passed Kindergarten and she was indeed going to first grad Mrs. Wagstaff was just moving up with her!! We do enjoy Mrs. Wagstaff and it will be a great year of first grade.
Reece did walk out with us to get Addey on the bus but she would not get in the picture since she was not getting on the bus with them. Sydney is Addey's "BFF' and she was so excited to go meet her at the bus the first day!!

Reece was also excited to start school... ok she was MORE than excited to start!! About a month or two ago she came up to me and said " Mom its ok, when I go to school Dylan will be your buddy" Reece has been my buddy for a long time, She has always been content to just be with me and she is just a good girl to hang out and do what I am doing. I could tell she was thinking about going to school and she was so ready but she was thinking about me being without her. What a sweet girl!!
Reece wanted to ride the bus the first day but I told her I was taking her. We waited for the bus at the school and got in the line and I was going to watch her walk in and leave but she said mom will you walk with me? It didn't take much convincing and I watched her put her stuff in her locker and sit in her class. She looked so big and small at the same time. I could not believe she was kindergarten but those small little desks and those big backpacks made her look so small. Ok so it was so much harder on me than it was her.
Also Dylan turned 10 months old today. He is getting so big and getting into everything. It is a good thing he is my little buddy and can keep me busy while he girls are gone! I truly believe our Heavenly Father knows what he is doing. When I found out I was pregnant, I did wonder. It was a hard time for us and I wondered how we where going to do it.
Dylan is turning 1 in a couple months and I can not explain the joy he has brought in that time!! I just can not believe he will be a year. The girls love him so much and are such big helpers! Today Wacey called and I was making rolls, he said wow are you bored without the girls or can you do more with them gone. I said BOTH, We miss them a lot but it is easier to get some things done! We are so happy when they come home to play though!!!!
