Ready for 1st Grade





We went yesterday and got Noah all registered for 1st grade at Foothills Elementary School. He is very excited to start school and make new friends. Yesterday was registration and tomorrow is Open House where we will get to tour the school and also find out who his teacher will be. We took him to pick up his school supplies a couple of days ago and he was very happy to find a Star Wars Clone Wars backpack at Target to carry his things in. I love how excited he is to be starting back to school and back to learning. We have been reviewing what he learned in Kindergarten to be sure he hasn't forgotten much and he seems to have retained all his sight words and all the basics. We also checked out a preschool for Rachel at a local Methodist church and were pleased with what we found there. We have her on a list to be contacted when an there is an opening for her. She will attend 2 days a week from 9 to 2 and she also seems excited about the prospect of going to school. Kate is doing well and growing everyday. I can't believe how much she has grown just since we have been in Tennessee. She is weighing around 13 pounds now and is on the brink of rolling over from her back to her belly. She is a happy baby and smiles all the time now. =)
