Back to School!



I think the boys were more relaxed about going back to school than last year. Luke was a little nervous about his first full day of school but he loved it. He is now super excited about going to school and when we asked him if he wanted to go to the cottage last weekend he replied "no, I want to stay here and go to school!" Liam has the same teacher as last year (whom he adores) and Luke has the same teacher Liam had in Grade 1. Dan reports that his class of 33 is much easier to handle than the one he had last year.

We are still getting into the routine - the boys come home for lunch 3 times a week, which is a nice break for them but very hectic for Mommy and Grace. Grace never seems to get a proper nap on those days. On a good note, I get about 6 km of walking in on the days the boys come home for lunch.

We haven't started ball hockey or ice hockey yet but Liam has started choir and Dan has started the last of three classes he needs to complete for his Masters. Liam is hoping to take violin lessons so we are in the process of finding a teacher. Grace and I are taking a Salsa Babies class on Tuesdays when the boys stay for lunch. It is great exercise!

Here are some photos from the first morning of school.
