In the big leagues

We have come to the golden day in September when kids head back to school, and the house goes from constant chaos to quiet. I was on the fence, until about a month ago if Talan would be going to Kindergarten this year. Ultimately we made the decision to send him, knowing he just might have to do Kindergarten twice, which is not a big deal at all. Today we might find out if Kindergarten is ready for a Talan. 


Syphr didn't even finish his breakfast before he sat in the stroller  ready to go. I'm not sure if this means he really needs a big brother break, or he was excited at the thought of an early morning walk. 
Not only is Talan in Kindergarten, but today marks Ashton's last first day of elementary school. He is now king of the school as a big time fifth grader. How time flies. 
Take note: I took both boys out and said, "pick whatever you want to wear on the first day of school." While Ashton had to go to several different stores to find just the right shirt, Talan put his together in about 10 minutes. It completely captures Talan's style. Just be glad they didn't have his size in the florescent green print shorts he really wanted. His teacher told him on friday she really likes green too, and the brown noser went all out. 

Representing their grade

Syphr must not have understood that taking a ride in the stroller means you ride in the stroller instead of walk. 



Notice the feet! Guess what his feet have grown into!!






Now I sit at home in a quiet house and find myself counting down until 2:30 when just yesterday I couldn't wait another minute for them to go.
