Preschool and Soccer

Noelle started preschool this past week.  She was so cute and happy to be going back…. until she got there. 

She’s always happy to talk about school and can tell you what she did and what the other kids did but when she’s there she is as quiet as church mouse.  She’s in the same classroom with the same teacher and a few of the kids from her class last year she just takes after her Mom and Auntie and has to scope out the situation before she’s comfortable.  Hopefully it wont take long. 

She also started her first year of soccer.  She’s excited to play and loves going to her practices.

At this age it’s just a lot of running and parents yelling at the kids to get the ball.  The girls are so funny.  There’s a lot talking happening on the field. 

1st Grade…. Really?

I know this is a little late… school started like a month and a half ago but I’m just getting my act together. 

We’re lucky because Thomas likes school, his teacher and having some of the same kids in his class from last year made the transition from 1/2 of a day of Kindergarten to a full day of 1st grade so much easier for him.  I can’t believe how big he is getting.  

Not only did Thomas start 1st grade but he also started his third year of soccer. The kids decided their team name would be the “Black Panthers”.  I’m not really sure about that name but the kids liked it and that’s all that matters.  He has the same coach as he did last year and many of the kids on the team he has played with all three years.  It’s been fun to watch their progress each year.

 

What a perfect day!!!!

I have been waiting for months for today to come.  I had a nice quiet day at work and I accomplished a ton of stuff.  All of my paperwork for October is done!  I have seen all my clients this month, their purchases are done, their CDER's were updated and the reports are done and turned in.  What a wonderful feeling!!!  I got a few disturbing phone calls from clients today but I had more good, entertaining, positive, and easy phone calls than I did disturbing ones.  A very productive and relaxing day and that's not even what I'm excited about. 

Like I said I have been waiting for this day for months.  The anticipation has been killing me!!! Two of my favorite things returned!!!  The new MY SIMS- KINGDOM game came out on Nintendo Wii!!!!

 

Of course I preordered my copy at Toys  R Us and went and purchased it on my way home from work just in time for my next favorite thing to start.  It's the beginning of BASKETBALL SEASON!!!!  Life is good.  I had the chance to play My Sims for an hour before the Basketball game started.  I am now sitting comfortably on the couch watching the Lakers play the clippers and for the moment the Lakers are winning!!!! 

What a perfect day!
