Back to School...at last

After a long summer, the kids are finally off to school this morning. And boy did morning come awfully early!

After a summer of waking up at 9am or later, Spencer's system was completely shocked by his 6:30 alarm clock awakening. The middle school bus now comes at 7:15, which is actually a little earlier than the time he woke up at in elementary school. Oh well...I say he's just getting warmed up for early morning seminary in 2 years. °Ü°

Ellie was 100% convinced that she was going with Cami and Emma wherever they were going. She patiently waited at the bus stop with them, jabbering the whole time......then the bus came and we picked her up to take her home...

...complete devastation to a two year old. She must've told me 10 times this morning that she really wanted to go with Cami and Emma and that she did NOT want to stay home with me. So we went to the library to try to make staying with Mom a little more fun, but life is definitely not quite the same. Good thing Adam has another year before kindergarten, although it'll be interesting how she reacts when he starts preschool next week.

Meanwhile I'm relishing in the quiet...

Cami and Emma chopped their hair!!! They both look adorable. I like the almost-matching shirts too. (Is that leopard print Cam is wearing? RAWRRR!)

I still can't believe Spence is old enough to be in junior high.

And poor Ellie; left behind with boring mom. Only three more years to go :o)

Three beautiful girls and one handsome boy waiting for the bus. They all look so grown up. I like the girls' hair. I Enjoy your blog. Mom

Seeing your 3 girls waiting for the bus is so adorable! Ellie looks so grown up! And I love Cami and Emma's haircuts!

My goal is that by the time Ellie is old enough for school, we'll live close to each other, so Andrew and Ellie can go to school together!
