Older childs 1st day!

[Jayne]

Well we are all showing off our Kindergarteners I wanted to say that I am still a sap and I still have to go to the bus stop on the first day for my 12 year old 6th grader :lol:

This morning we were up at 7, I cut Tylor's hair, he got his shower and I made Waffles for Breakfast (his request). We then made sure his lunch was in his bag and all the things he wanted for the first day were there and we were headed out to the bus at 8 so I could get pictures first :lol: This year his bus stop is right in front of the house!!!! :cheer:

He looks so excited Jayne!! Let us know how his first day goes!!

[Mary DK]

Gosh Jayne, I can't even imagine having a 6th grader! He looks so big! Hugs for you :bighug:
Question, was he saying... okay Mom, enough pics :disbelief:
:giggle:

[Jayne]

:lol: I could tell he was nervous because he was talking non stop about stupid things. Like reminding me when the guys all tried to blow a ground hog up that was in a hole at their house (2 summers ago :rolleyes::lol: )

He really didn't notice the pictures much other then the one's on the pourch. I always make them pose for those and the one at the drive he was over it then :lol: I of course kept snapping away. I only gave you a few. I think I took 20 this morning :lol:

Wow, Tylor looks like a little man! And you are not a sap! Is this junior high now for him?

[Mary DK]

:lol: I could tell he was nervous because he was talking non stop about stupid things. Like reminding me when the guys all tried to blow a ground hog up that was in a hole at their house (2 summers ago :rolleyes::lol: )
That's funny :lol:

[Jayne]

No..our Jr. High is now 7th and 8th grade. He is at the same school he was at the last two years so it was a lot easier to let him go. He just seems so grown up like I just don't have to give him any direction at all and I used to have to make him feel so secure. Just seems like ages ago. They grow up so darn fast it is unreal

[Mary DK]

Yeah, I think the day my kids say... it's okay Mom, I'm gonna be okay (and I realize that they really will be okay)... I'm gonna crumble :(
More hugs for you :bighug: :bighug:

Kaleb started last Thursday. His dad had actually went back to IN and left Kaleb with his stepmom in the hotel in Chicago. They went to leave to take Kaleb to school on his first day and couldn't find the car keys! After a frantic phone call, they realized Kaleb's dad had taken the keys with him the night before and both sets of keys were in IN.

Kaleb got to take a taxi cab to his first day of high school :giggle:

I was not allowed to take her to the bus stop :giggle:

so this was the best I could get...........

She liked jr. high so far. There is a ton of homework and it seems to be mostly on the weekends. :sigh: Her math teacher is the worst by far. She even sent out an email to parents outlining what she expects, how not to over-schedule our children and that we as parents have to make some adjustments in our lives to accomodate the amount of work she gives out. Jeez! I hope Dyl will be able to keep up once volleyball starts in 3 weeks. I hope we will be able to handle it too.

I'm dying laughing at the fact that you were stalking her through the bushes to get a picture :giggle:

I'm ready to implant a GPS chip right into her brain. :lol:

[LISA]

Ditto! :lol: that is just too funny! :lol: I would (and probably have) done the same!

Our kids are getting so big!
Hmmm I never even thought to take a pic of Cass infront of her dorm building but I'm pretty sure she would have nixed the idea anyway :lol:

[Mary DK]

Kara & Becky, I'm giggling at y'all's funny kids :giggle: I guess if they were gonna let y'all take a bunch of pic you were gonna get a silly one too, ah? Too funny :giggle:

Like I said before, I can't even imagine my kiddos being old enough for jr high, highschool or college!! :eek:

Lisa, :hug99:

[Karri]

I'm dying laughing at the fact that you were stalking her through the bushes to get a picture :giggle:

And um...when did she suddenly turn into a young lady? :faint: OMG. Last I saw, she looked like a little girl. Wow.

[Clare]

Dylan's first day of jr. high!

The kids these days and their rock and roll music. :rolleyes:

Kaleb has great taste in music. His MP3 is filled with 70's and 80's rock music. :dude: It cracks me up to listen to him walk around the house singing something from AC/DC or GNR :giggle:

[Kara]

Becky - She is gorgeous!!

how did her day go??

My kids always have a pose LOL, never fails!
