First Day of School

Logan started Kindergarten yesterday - he is in the Carlsbad school district, going to Calavera Hills "GO COYOTES!" - haha

Anyways, like I was saying... yesterday was his first day of school. He was soooooo excited. He woke up very early (sometime before 6:50am - when I woke up). He got dressed, ate breakfast, and was ready to go. A little to ready as I was still in my pj's and the girls were still asleep =)






When we finally were ready to go, I loaded everyone up into the car and began the journey to school. It was diastorous! No one warned me that the first day of school is madness! Because Logan is in Kindergarten, I have to walk him to his classrooom. Of course, being the first day of school there is no parking. I ended up having to park in a red zone (along with 300 other parents) on a large hill leaving the school grounds. At this point, we were late. I had figured it would take us no more than 15 minutes to get to school, park, and walk to Logan's classroom. Boy was I wrong! So here I am running up this giant hill with two babies in my arms, blankets everywhere, and a Logan not far behind.

When we finally go to Logan's classroom, it was empty! The whole school was out on the blacktop for an assembly. Luckily, this didn't freak Logan out and I walked him to his class. His teacher, Mrs. Thompson, just smiled. I kissed Logan goodbye and left - Whew! What an ordeal!

Life wasn't so difficult when I picked him up - I left the two girls at home with Brook (my helper for the summer) and Logan and I went to McDonalds for lunch. He couldn't stop talking about all the playing he did at school! What happened to the learning part? I guess he traced some letters - haha!

Well that's it for now.... today is another day and I actually got Logan to school early =) We'll figure it out soon enough!

Olivia Jean Sibiski

Olivia had her doctor check up today =) She is 4 months old, weights 14lbs and 14oz, and is 24 3/4 inches long.

Right now daddy has her and Logan and daddy are playing with her. She keeps giggling! Soooo cute! Her little face lights up and makes everyone else light up too. Maybe she'll be one of those people that can walk into a room and brighten anyones day!

Logan had his kindergarten orientation at school today! His teacher's name is Mrs. Thompson. She is an older lady, but Logan liked her. Hopeful the experience teaching will help with Logan and keep him in line while making him learn lots and lots of new things - like reading! He starts school tomorrow. He was so cute, he spent the morning coloring pictures for Mrs. Thompson and brought all three with him to the class room. She was a bit surprised to get them as it was the first day and they didn't know each other.

I will try to remember to post some pictures of the first day!

Night night!

Adelina

Hey all...

Adelina had her 15/18 month check-up today. She is doing fine and dandy. She weighs 21 lbs 2 oz -25th percentile and she is 31 3/4 inches tall - 75th percentile. Tall and skinny =)

Olivia goes on Tuesday... although she had to go today too for an eye problem. She got some antibotics and hopefully that fixes the problem.. otherwise it is a clogged tear duct. We shall see - but nothing major! We'll update her stats on Tuesady!

Summer Day at the Beach

The family and Grandma Debbie spent a short hour and half at the beach yesterday (8/19) and had a grand time! Logan and Adelina spent most of the time digging in the sand. At one point some random dude came and stood in the small hole that the kids had built and rubbed his feet in it - it was quite strange - and finally Logan went up to him and said "you are standing in the hole I am digging." Thd guy just gave us a look and walked away.... his friend was laughing at him =)

Both kids are quite brave at the beach and will run into the waves (although Adelina only goes for a second before she runs back to the shore).

Here are a few small pictures of the day...
