This year Eliza has had a rough go with first grade. I first told you about how she got put in a class in california with none of her friends. Then her teacher ended up being not very nice and we had to deal with tears everyday she came home. Then we moved and we were hoping for a better year.
So the day after we moved in we frantically got both kids ready for their first day of school. I wanted to wait an extra day but both were so excited to start! So we did it! We found all that we needed and got them there. We waited and filled out paperwork and did all the logistics of registering to then be told she wouldn't be able to start until the next day anyway. WHAT? Lets just say we were all on the verge of tears. Only one of us actually shed some and she is the adult!
So we went home and did some shopping and unpacking to make us feel better. THen the next day we rode our bikes and met Eliza's teacher. Although we quickly learned that her actual teacher was on maternity leave and she will have a substitute until she gets back. Oh man! Poor Lizey. She has been through alot of change and adjustment and really actually has done so well! I am really proud of her!
So since Eliza's registration took so long the first day, we also missed taking Porter for his first day of preschool. So we also started him the next day. He was so cute and so excited and just seemed so big and ready to go! I put him in an everyday preschool and so far it has been great for both of us! He loves it and it has been nice having some time to get a few things done.

Wow, I'm glad you're getting some normalcy in your lives again. We sure miss you guys here. It makes me kind-of sad seeing the Idaho pictures. It makes the move seem even more official. I'm glad the kids are adjusting well. I'm not surprised though, you have great kids!
Wow what a hectic thing...and all in the middle of a move!? I would have cried too! The kids look adorable, and Porter seems so big! Yey for a few hours of time down time during the day!!
Wow, I Can't Believe That They Are All Grown Up!!! Amazing!
