Busy week ahead!

Tomorrow is the big day! The kids are so anxious to find out who their teacher will be. I'm hoping this will help my nervous little girl feel a bit more confident and ready for school.
I'm going to take them out to lunch after we go through the final registration process at the school. Hoping that all of the kids will cooperate while we go to take care of all of that. I'll have my three, plus two of the daycare kids. The daycare mom is supposed to meet us there, so that will help!

Then, after nap I'm taking all of the 'big' kids to a movie! It will be one of our final field trips with the daycare school aged kids. We're going with another friend who does home daycare as well. Between the two of us we'll have 8 school agers, but that's a break compared to the numbers we usually take in public together. ;) We get some funny looks that is for sure.

My two newest daycare kids will be here for their first official days on Thursday & Friday. They're also the youngest ones that I've added recently. They did come for a visit for a few hours a couple of weeks ago. They're both really sweet and fun! Both of their parents are teachers, so the hours are great. It will be fun to have a baby here again! I've had a couple of 9-10 month olds here off and on during the summer. That's been a lot of fun also! They keep me busy, but in a good way. The days sure go fast when there are babes here.

Well, I suppose I'd better get back to the laundry and house cleaning. It's not going to finish itself now is it!

Here's to a great finish to the weekend! Man is it HOTTTT here! I need to go clean out the van, but it is just so stinkin' hot.

Found my youngest two kiddos playing dress up in the playroom yesterday! Of course our 3rd child is a comedian/clown, so he just had to throw a silly face in there.

My baby girl is nervous!

Poor thing! She was so excited about kindergarten, now all of a sudden she is so scared. I feel so bad for her. I am trying everything I know to calm her fears and reassure her. I know she'll be ok once she is there and sees some familiar faces and realizes what a great time they'll have. I think the thing that makes her most nervous is going all day. When we discussed the options back in the spring she chose to sign up for all day, and was very eager to go. Now that she's had the summer to ponder it (and be at home with mom 24/7) she has had a change of heart.
She would really be bored here with the toddlers and babies.

I'm really hoping and praying that she'll get into her social groove and do fine. She's always been very social and outgoing. Never had a problem dropping her off at preschool, she loved it! At least she'll have her big brother in the next hallway to help her find her classroom, etc.. She can ride the bus home with him also, so that will help.

So, we've got 11 days until school starts. We shall see what it brings.
