Here is a few pictures from her first week of school.
She wasn't really into the thought of going to school.
at least until she made a new friend! That turned her whole experience around!
Reading her book and waiting for the bus. A new favorite. "Round is a mooncake". Definitely on our list of fun book!
We had an accident right off of the bus on Wednesday but yesterday was good and she has come home with a few new phrases and uses the names of TWO of her class mates! *not going to use their names w/o parental permission. but rest assured, it is SUPER cute!*
So now I am at home on a cold rainy day, Aria is napping, Kaelyn is at school, and I'm running out of stuff to clean! I organized my bathroom closet, I'm getting caught up on laundry, I've mopped my kitchen TWICE this week. Heck, if I wasn't catching up on laundry, I wouldn't have so many clean towels to put away. I'm terribly afraid to see what happens the next 3 days that there was no school!
On the flip side, I am missing my girl and being alone is NOT so fun. If I keep up on my cleaning I will need to take up some sort of hobby. Aria naps the whole time! Without the kids messing up the house behind me, I get stuff done! Maybe I will even blog a little more reguarly! Or with a little peace and quiet I could podcast a time or two! Who knows!
I made the mistake of keeping Aria up to see Kaelyn off to school the other day... NO BUENO. She cried "MY KAELYN" right up until she fell asleep. After that I made sure to wake her up so that she could see that her sister was INDEED going to return home on the yellow school bus.

To sum up the week, school is going great! Kaelyn made a friend or two, she likes her teacher, and riding the bus was not the terrible event I feared it would be! I give a gold star to all of us!
If I may ask a favor, and i dont do it often, My nephew was born early a little over 2 years ago and gets sick pretty easy. They think it may be an auto immune issue. If you could say an extra prayer for him that his numbers go up to where they need to be that would be awesome. All of these doctors visits are hard on any parent but especially so for a single momma. Little man loves his cousins and my girls love him just as much in return and we hope for a happy and healthy winter. If enough of us bend the ear of the man upstairs, who's to say it won't happen?
Until next time!
Lara, Kaelyn, and the rest of the nutty bunch!
