Kassidy's school

Kassidy is having such a great start to her Kindergarten year:) She is getting to know all of her classmates and her two teachers pretty well. I hear a lot about Courtney, Jillian, Sammy, Caroline, Kennedy, Audrey, and Ben. The one boy, Ben, she mentioned because he won't play with her on the playground. She said he only wants to play with the boys! Go figure. It's very neat hearing her talk about what she did in school, she loves singing their songs (one for each color, one to learn everyone's names, etc), playing with the promethium board, starting to recognize words in books, etc. I cannot believe all she's learned already...amazing!!!

Her name and ABC's...all by herself, no prompting at all!!!
Their class is the Zooming Zebras and each child takes turns bringing the mascot, Zac, home with them. Kassidy finally had her turn! Of course it was the night of open house so they didn't get a lot of play time. Before school the next day they need to write about their adventures in a journal. Now, this scared me because I've never seen Kassidy write more than one word at a time before. Then I looked through the writings of the previous kids adventures and got even MORE nervous because some of them were written so well! I felt the pressure to make sure she did a good job writing, but then remembered each child is different and I shouldn't worry about it and make it a big deal. I was truly suprised when she wanted to write all she did! You'll see later how she did...

Before bath she finished her journal entry. I helped spell/sound out words but she wrote it all!
(in case you can't make it out...We played chalk. We colored. Zak came to my open house. Zak had fun! Then a picture of Zak, too funny!)

Carnival time:) Sara won the cake walk! Thanks for sharing with all of us!!!

Sleepy boys!

FUN with silly string! ! ! Her boys got her good!


This one cracks me up!!! I was just going to take a picture of the silly string on my shirt, and right as I snapped the pic Kelly got me a ton of silly string in my face!Karson got in on the fun, too! But not by HIS choice!
Here you can see the confetti on her head from the confetti eggs...they were a BIG hit:)
(You just crack the top of an egg, get all the egg out, rinse, then insert confetti. I had no idea how fun they were!)

The kids loved getting us:)And getting Karson, too:) This was either Kassidy or Sara's doing.


As you can see, it was a great time:)
