First Day of School!

before i post this, i just wanted to let you all know that this is the third post i have put up today, so check below for the other two :).

okay, today was the first day of school. toya woke up and said to me, "do you think i will do good in third grade?" i said of course you will and don't worry about it, it's only your first day! she was very excited to wear her new dress from grammy and her new shoes from auntie sarah and uncle john. she looked very grown up. here is her picture:


jordan was very excited for his first day of kindegarten! i didn't cry, but i did get a little weepy when i saw him sitting at his big boy desk! i can't beleive how grown up he has become. i think it made it a little easier that he went to preschool last year. it really seems that within the past week, he actually turned into a kindegartener (is that a word?). anyway, he did very well and looked so handsome. the shirt was from grammy (the pants were too short), and the shoes were from auntie sarah and uncle john. here is his picture:


so, one day down and lots to go! :)

here are the girls in their dora pj's from auntie sarah and uncle john. they love them and have worn them several times!


ok, in case you haven't figured it out yet, we have decided to wait to potty train the girls. they showed a ton of signs that they are ready, but a few that they are not. i have decided i am not in a hurry. they are my last kids and it won't kill them or me to keep them in diapers for a little while longer.

i think i have also decided to forgo my trip to north carolina. as much as i want to go see grayson, i talked to my sister and she said i should just stay home. she says i will miss my kids too much and will be miserable. although i do agree with that, i think i would make it. so, i guess i will have to wait to see grayson on thanksgiving just like everyone else. i keep going back and forth, and i have waited so long now that i probably couldn't get a good price on a ticket anyway.

so, that is all for this post. check out the other two posted today! have great week!
