August 2009

Wow I cannot believe summer is over and school has started. It has been an exciting and really busy summer. Now that it is ending it is getting busy in a totally different way. Gabe lost both his front teeth within a week of each other so school pictures this year are going to be really cute.
Gabe is now in 1st grade and goes to school all day from 8:15am to 2pm. This is different, but not totally new for him, as he did spend summer camp from 9am-3:30pm everyday. In fact camp is longer than school, but they were not confined at camp and made to sit and learn. He started on Wednesday, Aug 26th and totally loves it so far.
He was a little nervous to begin with because his best friend was in a different class, but once he found out that he could still have lunch and recess with him he was a very happy child.

Kaleb starts school on the 9th of September and I am very excited. He went to camp at the preschool this summer and he is so ready for it. He is a very smart child, sometimes to smart for his own good if you ask me. How many 2 years old do you know that know Star Wars, but by the title, can make the light saber sounds, knows the theme song, and says good morning to C3-PO and R2D2 every morning. He is also drawing pictures that just amaze me, faces with hair, suns, all sorts of things.

We of course encourage all the artist part of him as much as possible. My mom also thinks he is very musically inclined. He is always at the piano at her house and singing right along with his playing. It is really cute.
