We are a few short days from getting back into the grind and even though we pretty much operate on the same schedule regardless of the time of year, I am looking forward to getting back to the school routine.
Let's start with Grace. She will be a third grader this year - can you believe it? Tomorrow is open house and we'll get to see who her teacher is and which friends will be in her class. Tonight is her first pom class. She is very excited to try something new. When someone asked her what pom was she replied "It's cheerleading with dance". I think she's excited. And not to be forgotten, karate is still her top activity. She tested for her blue belt last night. It feels like she is breezing through the belts, but she knows her stuff!
Adam's visit to the developmental pediatrician went well earlier this month. He pretty much told us that Adam is an active three-year-old who needs firm limits. Well you know who gets part of the blame on that. But he did say that the school calling us when he was acting out, didn't help matters so we need to reprogram him a bit and our sitter Tanya has been doing a fine job of that.
Because we want to get him back into a full-time program, we have elected to put him in a part time pre-school to get him back on track. So he will still spend time at home with Tanya but on Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons he will go to pre-school. Hopefully he'll grow out of this phase soon.
For those of you in NJ - look out, we are heading north for Labor Day weekend. This will be time for the extended family to enjoy the kids and for me to enjoy family and friends!!
