Wine Weeder

Today marked the official first week of school for Lil Bit!  She loves school and looks forward to the next class!   Tonight she was telling me about school and told me she couldn't wait to be the wine weeder!  Not understanding what wine weeder were I asked & she told me they stand in front and walk, not run, and weed the class.  It then occurred to me that she was talking about being the line leader!  She's upset she hasn't had a turn yet. "I was waiting and waiting but no one called me, that's the truth".

Tears in My Eyes

Today Lil Bit met her teacher...she was so excited!

When she went to bed tonight she was crying (overly tired & she hit her elbow).  It was adorable when she said "I can't sleep, I have tears in my eyes".

Registered for School...and the PTA!

While I'm not so excited about my baby going to school...yesterday she was officially registered.  Sunday we meet her teacher.

I guess the one good thing is that I am now part of the PTA.  I hope I can help!

Many More Firsts

My Lil Bit is growing up way too fast for my comfort.  We're looking into getting her a big girl bed which would allow us to paint her room and decorate it as she sees fit...she gets to choose decor.

We also have officially signed her up for preschool.  How am I ever going to walk her down the hall and send her off to school without crying???

We shopped for school supplies for the first time, a joy I looked forward to for some time, but now that it's here, it's just too fast.

She went to her first baseball game at Busch Stadium on Sunday, August 03.  It was Fred Bird's birthday; lots of fun stuff happening.  The highlight though was that Lil Bit got a promotional giveaway...a mini Clydesdale from Build-a-Bear.  That sealed the deal for her.

So many changes...how will I ever survive?
