School's in Session!

Tatum was pretty excited to wear her backpack!!
Her obsession right now is puppies.... mainly dalmatians??
She really wanted a dalmatian backpack (which I found does not exist)!!
We improvised with a pink backpack with spots and a dalmatian keychain!!

Chase is thrilled to be going back to school with all of his friends!!

Our walk to school!!
Tatum's backpack is just huge on her!!

At the school

Chase found his friends and was off...

This is cute... this is a picture of Chase outside of the same Kindergarten classroom 2 yrs ago.
Tatum has his teacher!!

Looks like Jim is giving her some 1st day advise.
"Tatum... if you meet any boys today they need to come talk to me!!"

What is a first day of school without a celebration and some cake!!

Tatum, our sweet child, has managed this week to get lunches on two separate days from "the cooking lady" along with her own lunch from home! So for two days she got two lunches and thinks this is great!!! The nice "cooking lady" even gave her a stamp on her hand!! (to remind mom to send in money for these scammed lunches!!) Needless to say I have been going in to have lunch with the kids this week to catch her from making this a daily occurance!!

Been kind of a crazy week!! The Kindergarten classes are extra full this year with 30 kids per class. Next week they will be splitting the classes and hiring on a 5th teacher to bring the class size to what it should be. I am pretty confident Tatum will not be moved out of her class but who knows?? At least the kids will get more of the attention they deserve and need with adjusting to this big school with the smaller class sizes!!
