Puddle Jumping

We have had some rainy days during the late summer/early fall. Quinn loves to go out and play in the rain. She especially loves jumping in puddles. 

Piper prefers to stay dry. 

Tabitha

We have adopted a little virtual cat. This adoption was made possible by the Cat a Paint app.

First Day of School- Quinn

Quinn started four year old preschool last week. She will attend the same preschool as last year, just four days a week instead of two. She was so excited to start school, and see some of her friends from last year, and her teachers. Quinn loves her teachers, and I am pretty sure they love her too. I appreciate them so much. They have taught Quinn so much. And as a bonus, Quinn is finally talking loudly enough that people can hear her. Ha!  She even has gotten a little bossy at school, which is a long way from where she was a year ago. We are excited to how much she learns and grows this year!

And on the second day, I did some spying. Quinn is in the red with her back to the door 

First Day of School- Jessi

I had my first day of school last Monday. It went very well. I have a student teacher this year, and I think she will be fabulous. I have 26 5th graders this year. They seem like a nice bunch of kiddos. I am gearing up for a great, although never easy, year!  

Quinn's feelings about my first day of school....

Due Date 2014

Dear Quinn, 

I totally dropped the ball when it came to writing your due date letter on your actual due date. Sigh. Well, better late than never, right?  

You are awesome!  I am totally loving you as an actual, not just adjusted, four year old. You are funny, kind, helpful, sweet, insightful, smart, and totally bossy.  Ok, I could do without the bossy part. You have a great memory and a big heart.  

Here is a snapshot of you on your four year old due date- 

You are a fantastic reader. 

You love to do your preschool on the computer, and are excited to start back at your regular preschool. 

You love your "guys."  This includes all your princess barbies and any other figurines type toys. 

You love the Little Mermaid the most. 

You are usually up to try anything as far as a new activity. 

You are the pickiest eater. You are not ever up to try new food. 

You are bossy. 

You love to play school, library, and doctor. 

You love animals and babies, and have a very kind heart. 

You love making new friends, and often find a friend everywhere we go. 

You love to bake and help in the kitchen. 

You love to pretend like you are a kitty. 

You are the best! 

Quinn picked to wear her "Rapunzel" dress for her due date.
