My first day of Kindergarten

What a fun and long day!! (hold a fake smile)



Lunch time!!!



I'ris is in her 5th week of Kindergarten and has gotten the hang of it. Although she does say her days are to long..that could be because she goes to the after school program till Mommy can pick her up...she is enjoying the beginning of her school years. :D

Pre K Graduation ....2nd year :)

YAAY!!! She made it through another year of Preschool!!!!! Now......Kindergarten. Dun Dun DUUNNN!! LOL

Pre-K 08-09 Celebration Awards

What a fun time to experience with your child. I stayed the whole morning with I'ris on Wednesday. She, we had a fun day!! I helped organized the awards for the preschoolers award ceremony, while I'ris helped set up the Hawaiian themed decorations. Then the kids had their breakfast, applesauce, milk, apple juice and bread. We decorated some more and all the preschoolers had a special gift for all the kindergartner's that were going to be moving on to 1st grade, a cloth painted bag with a book, pencil and home made play doe that the preschoolers made for them. Then they headed outside for some party play time. There was a bubble are, face painting, magic water bottles, wagons, and water toys. Then time to clean up cause all the mommy's, daddy's, sister's, brother's and grandparents were arriving to watch the preschoolers graduate. She got her face painted.

1st day of Pre-K

What an exciting time!! My baby's 1st day of school.

So before I'ris started school she was haunted by the idea of actually going to school. Every time you mentioned the word SCHOOL, she would panic and cry. Well, I guess she came to terms with the fact that it was inevidable!!! She was going to have to go to SCHOOL. We tried to convience her that she would have fun and meet new friends, but she still declined until...........about 4 days before school started, she all of a sudden was excited to start SCHOOL! I have no idea what happened except for her brother telling her she could be really smart and read like him. So......... Monday morning, time to get up....o so tired....here we go, get dressed, brush your hair, brush your teeth and have some breakfast. Then, off to SCHOOL. We meet the teacher, Ms. Brenda, who seems like an awesome teacher, then she meet a couple of classmates, picked a cubbie, Ms. Brenda showed I'ris where the potty was just in case. And as she is coming out of the potty I here her ask "Where's my moma", then I see her peek her head out the restroom and say "Moma I want you to leave now!" Needless to say, all she needed to know was where the restroom was and it was ALL good!! So... I left and when it was time to go home she said she loved SCHOOL and was ready to come back tomorrow. :)

What a relief!! Now.....after only a week of SCHOOL, she starts spring break, we were thinking maybe Cancun?!?!?!?
