OFF TO SCHOOL WE GO..

Wednesday was the first day of school for Tahne and Taylee. Because this was Tahne's first day of Jr High and Taylee's first day at her new school, I decided to take the day off just in case they needed my help.

We were a little concerned because Tahne was told that she didn't qualify for busing we lived closed than 2 miles. 1.96 to be exact. If we lived one house over than she would qualify! How dumb is that! So I told her I was putting her on the bus. We walked out to the stop and of course I have to take pictures the entire way. As the bus came, she rushed on before I could take her picture. So I yelled (for all the kids on the bus to hear) "Don't you want to kiss me goodbye?" The bus driver asked me if I wanted to get on the bus and take the picture! I said "Heck Yeah!" and climbed on the bus. Tahne was horrified. I took the picture and got off before she died of embarrassment!

Then it was Taylee's turn.

Taylee had made plans to walk to school with Rachel. Rachel lives 2 doors down and is in 5th grade. I took Tesse (in the stroller) and Tatelyn to walk the girls to school. The whole neighborhood was walking to school. There must of been a thousand kids and their moms. I guess I am the only mom who works in that neighborhood! Anyway, when we got to school, I took a bunch of pics of Tay and Rachel outside the school. I took Tay to her class and took more pics of her..and her teacher..and her sitting at her desk. She was mortified! Then I took Rachel to her class and took some pics of her. After we were through, I took Tate and Tesse to play on the playground for a while. Then we walked home. I mean I walked home pushing Tatelyn with Tesse sitting on her lap in a tiny stroller. If you know Tatelyn at all, you know that she doesn't like to walk at all. She gets "tired" after a few steps. I guess it takes alot to move that "soft bum bum."

Taylee had half day so when it was time to go pick her up, Tate and Tesse decided that they had had enough walking for the day and stayed at Pho's. I walked Tay and Rachel home. Tay told me all of her day and seemed to have a great time even though she didn't have anyone in her class that she knew. I think she'll make new friends quickly though.

Tahne came home later that "exhausted" and her feet hurt! She rambled on and on about this and that and to be honest, I don't know 1/2 of what she said. I then took her to buy ALL the things "she had to have" for school. It was an long but fun day.

Now, I just have to get though Tatelyn's "first day of preschool" on 9/5. Good luck to me!
