The Big 6

Six years old and in Kindergarten. Feels like it took ages to get to this stage when I think about it but actually being here just makes me see the next 12 flying by. Two more kids to get through this stage.
 
She had so much fun, between her room and outdoor, she and her friends had a ton of fun.
 

Everybody is so serious when painiting

 
Girls painting their pumpkins.








 
As soon as I brought the cake out her friends were trying to get Elsa and Anna off.



 
It was a good day and thank you everyone who came. Only upset was when a little one grabbed Preston's plastic bat and hit her old sister in the face with it.
I'm so excited this year for Brianna, she's already reading words and not just the words her teacher lists out, she will sit there and start sounding other words out, and if its not exactly right we correct her and try to explain but congratulate her on how far she got without us.
She's lost three teeth with three more that are loose. She's starting to learn that in order to get things you need money and you have to work to get that money, if she doesn't do her chores then no cash and that means no new toy.
Can't wait to see what life brings to this girl of mine. I love you Brianna and Happy 6th Birthday.

Field trip

This is about a week and a half late. But better late than never :)
I got to help chaperone Brianna's first (technically second but I'm not counting the first one lol) school field trip. All the kindergarteners got to go to sweet pickins pumpkin patch. They have a butt load to do there. At lunch time the kids went and got to pick out a pumpkin (they could carry themselves) to take back to school. They were going to measure and weigh them and count all the lines. I was in charge of two girls, Brianna and her friend Kailey. Wow I never thought I would meet someone louder than Bri. Of course it didn't help that my sinuses were affecting my ear drums that day and they hurt when anyone talked but still. She was a sweetheart though. Poor girl lost her sock cause she took them off when they went to play on the pillow. And I wasn't around the area where they took their shoes off to look after them. Hopefully she didn't get in to much trouble.

Waiting for the girls to be done on the tractor ride.



Big trikes

He tried riding the smaller trikes but his legs just aren't long enough yet.

The big bouncing pillow!! It became more packed than this and it's amazing that not that many kids came off it crying actually.

All in all it was a good day. Of course when I said all right time to go meet your teacher I got told that they weren't able to play, mind you we had been there since 10am and it was almost 2. Nope they didn't get to play at all haha. Then I was the only parent suckered and pretty much forced to sit in the class picture, thank you Brianna. After that I was done for the day, unfortunately I still had to go pick her up later since she didn't want to go home just yet, and then make dinner so no I wasn't able to call it quits for the day. Oh well it was fun!!!
