First day of Kindergarten

I thought it would be a good idea to blog about the good or normal things that happen in my everyday life. This blog will hopefully be daily and a ton of rambling about things going on with Michael and I in our life. This will not only be to keep our friends and family updates, it will be a great record keeping, memory tracking device for me too as he ages about the fun little things he did and stages he went through.

Well since I have not ever done this there will be a lot of things I will want to go back on and fill in, just have have recorded here. but let's start current Today is Sept. 4, 2008 and the first day of Kindergarten for my lil man. He will be going to half day Kindergarten in the PM, at Chester Elementary. I love that it is so close to our house we are able to walk there. It will also be a good way for me to get out of the house and exercise by walking him there and back as often as I can (when I am not working). It takes about 10min one way, so that could be 40min of walking for me :) He doesn't seem that nervous or excited about it. We got him some new shirts to choose from and all his school supplies packed. I wished I could stay and see all the things he will be doing, how he interacts, if he has fun, etc. I got my camera ready for a few before school shots, so I can scrapbook those later too.

While he is at school I will need to run to the gym, the cereal sale that is going on today and then maybe Shopko to get a few more storage containers for my scrapbook room. Then I hope to come home (if any time left) and clean clean clean some more before I go get him. After school today we are heading right to Karate. He had his trial lesson last week and then on Tuesday we went to the family class at 6:30, but there was only 1 other boy his age there. This class at 3:45 is all for his age group which I think he MAY like better, but the time is impossible to get to if I work subbing that day. But since I don't work today and maybe not next week at all since the teachers are still gearing up into the year, I thought we may try a bit of both classes and let him choose. He looks so cute in his lil karate uniform. He got that for free for signing up too and yes I will get a pic of him in it tonight plus some pics of him doing his moves if I can without being too distracting.

Well my lil helper has stopped playing his "daddy's game" on the PS2 and needs my attention. I think this fills you in for today anyway, I hope to get another post in later today about some "past" things.
