Well, McKinnlee started Kindergarten on Monday and we are now adjusting to life on a schedule. She absolutely loves Kindergarten.
The first day I was walking with her to the car after school, and she started talking about how she was a little sad. I thought, "oh, she missed me." NOT! She was sad that she had to come home. I guess I'll just be grateful that she's loving school and her teacher. She's definitely been worn out this week. I never have a girl that's practically falling asleep on the couch at 6:30 like she has the last couple days. She's definitely adjusting to a time change. This is my girl that prefers to get up between 8-9 most mornings, and has been forced to get out of bed at 6:30 instead. All in all she's doing pretty good, though. Just counting the days until she can sleep in. (Every day she asks me how many days she has.) Next week she'll be changing to a new Kindergarten schedule that will work much better for us. She'll be able to sleep in again and start school at 9:30 instead of 7:50. That means that I don't have to wake her and the boys up and get them dressed and out of the house anymore by 7:30. That extra hour and half will make all the difference in the world. As for other news, McKinnlee also has her first loose tooth! My baby's growing up!

They do grow up so fast!! It was just yesterday...I am sure...that your mom and I were hauling you girls to Paul's Marketplace to shop and to the dentist in Jerome!! I will always remember you and Brittany running around with one side of your mouths numb laughing and giggling. I think you got a little too much of the mickey nose (laughing gas)!!! Anyway, fun times.
Silly Stephanie, reading your blog is funny. You should write in it more. You're so random.
awww we know how you feel about getting kids up early. My middle child likes to sleep in and getting her up at 6:30am is a struggle some mornings. If its not her its her big sister. I have a 2nd grader and preschooler and a baby that makes me old hahaha
Glad you get a change in schedule...how did that work out? 9:30 seems the optimal time for kindergarten to me. I have to get Lindsay to preschool by 8:00 and it's killing me. Bryce had gotten to the point he got himself up and made his own lunch, then Wade dropped him at the Sheldon's to walk to school, so I was spoiled last year and got to sleep in with the girls.
