School Days!!

Well today is the last week day of summer! We met the girls' teachers this morning. Both seem very sweet and I'm hoping for a great year x2! There is so much construction around the school that parking is going to be a nightmare this year. Needless to say, we got there 30 minutes early so we didn't have to walk half a mile from the car. Well worth it in my opinion!!
Emma told me last week that she doesn't want to go to school because she doesn't like being bossed around. But this morning she seemed ok with the idea and I think she liked her classroom and meeting her new teacher.
Kerri, on the other hand, can't wait to go back to school. She knows quite a few other kids in her class so I think she was excited for that.
We also got a new bus route - exciting stuff in our house, let me tell you! Last year Kerri was one of the first bus stops and this year we are the last! That gave us an extra 20 minutes in the morning!! Downside is that they won't ride the bus with their cousins anymore and they are the last to get off in the afternoons too. But that's ok too.
Peyton doesn't start school until Sept 7 but since I'm working at the school she will be up there plenty of times before school starts. And she is sooo excited about being in the Sunshine class!
I can't believe how big the girls are. I have a first grader, a kindergartener and an almost 4 year old. I visited a friend who just had a baby and it cemented in my head how grown up they are. :( Well, part of me is sad that they aren't babies and another part is excited for all the new stages! (Minus the eye rolling, back talking, foot stamping and squeeling that has been going on in my house over the summer!)
We're planning a trip to the children's museum tomorrow morning and then lunch out as a special end of summer treat for the girls and then maybe a little swimming and movie night at home. I hope they enjoy it, which I'm sure they will! :)
