John and I attended Max's Open House at his school Tuesday night and are very excited about the upcoming school year for him. His teachers are very enthusiastic and they have lots of wonderful learning planned for this year.
We also attended Abby's Open House last night and are once again very pleased with Abby's teachers. We have had wonderful experiences with the Learning Center and look forward to Lucy attending there in a couple of years. I took Abby yesterday afternoon to meet her teachers and they were great with her and although Abby didn't really talk to them much she seemed to feel very comfortable and had a great time playing. Several of her classmates from last year are in the same class so I think that will make a huge difference!
Max started football practice Wednesday night...yes it has been a VERY BUSY WEEK! His first game is on the 18th. Abby keeps reminding us that she wants to play football this year too so as soon as registration through the YMCA begins we'll sign her up. I can't wait to see our little "princess" running up and down the field :)
Lucy is doing great and is going to be turning 1 year old on the 16th! YIKES! She is walking great as long as she is holding onto something and will walk behind her push toy very steadily. Of course as soon as she runs into something she bangs the toy against it and screeches until someone comes to help her...very Abby like...UH OH! I have started weaning her off formula and onto organic whole milk. The milk also goes into a cup instead of a bottle so when formula is gone that means NO MORE BOTTLES! Max and Abby were both on all milk/cups by their first birthday so that is the goal I have for Lucy as well. I think she is having issues with the temperature of the milk however because I have spent a year heating up her formula for her...now she has COLD milk. Her first taste of it she ended up letting pour out of her mouth. She is interacting more and more with Abby and Max and loves following them around the house and hanging out with them in the playroom. She has also developed a fondness for Abby's baby dolls :) Abby has decided Lucy needs her own dolls for her birthday! Is she looking out for her sister or just protecting her own stuff? :)
John is doing well and is working hard as always. Unfortunately his beloved Wolfpack did not do so well last night against South Carolina :( He is taking it relatively well though. I guess he has too much other stuff on the brain to get too upset about it.
Well, thanks for reading my rambling thoughts. Gotta go scrub something...
