First Day of Kindergarten!

So today just like everyone else, was Noah's first day of Kindergarten! I kept wondering if i would really have a hard time with it, I mean my first baby is starting actual school. Well I did great and so did he. I think I was actually ready for my kids to be out of the house and have more productive days :) Maybe i'll regain some of my sanity back. Anyway, he popped up from sleeping and was ready to go. Wegot to school and he was doing great up until we got to the door to his classroom, and then i think it sunk in that I wasnt going to be able to stay there with him. I gave him a big hug and todl him that i would be there at the end of school. I hung out outside and peeked in to see that he finally sat down and started playing.

At 2:45 I was there with all the other eager parents waiting to pick up there newby kindergartener! I was so happy to see him and excited to hear about his first day. He was excited to let me know that there was a girl in his class that looked like a girl from his other school, and there was a boy named Ben like his little school. He talked about his music class, and his lunch room, and playing freeze tag with his friends on the playground. I'm very proud of him, and he told me that he's excited to go back tommorrow.

All fears aside now, Maya starts back to Athena Montessori on Wednsday. Dad will be dropping her off in the mornings since she has a hard time being emotionally attached to me. Wht am I going to do with all this extra time... Time to work out!!

Here are some pictures from his first day... Nice to see i wasn't the only parent there taking pictures of their childs every move!! What am i going to do when he gets into middle school, or even graduates!!

Walkig to the entrance of the Kindergarten Building! Transformer backpack and luncbox all the way!!

This is a shot of when i dropped him off... he started to cry, just a little.

Meeting Kate Gosselin..

A friend and I from church went to the 2009 Women's Balance Expo, basically a bunch of health and wellness booths, free junk, and speakers. Well, Kate Gosselin was on the line up and I just new I had to be there. I had butterflies in my stomach when she came on stage, knowing in my head this was obviously a dream. After coming to reality, I was very excited and in shock I was seeing her. We stood in line after her talk abot how she got pregnant with all her babies, which I felt in a way she was reading straight from her book, and I got to meet her. I got very excited and I'm sure by her expression she thought i was the crazy fan in the crowd. I learned a few things from this experience...#1 I hope she's a little friendlier next time. She didn't really say anything, but what was i hoping for her to say? She hated jon or something?? #2 I SO NEED TO LOOSE BOOKOOS OF WEIGHT... ugg these pictures of me are horrible!!! Oh well... I had a huge adrenaline rush, and was lucky I got the oppurtunity to see her. She is definetly a very beautiful women...
