Summer vacation ended on Monday. To ensure the boys enjoyed their last day, we had lots of fun. During the morning we walked over to their school and met their new teachers and saw their classrooms. We then had lunch at McDonalds. Then we spent the afternoon playing in the backyard-- swimming, swinging and beating the heat.
Matthew is in 1st grade this year. His teacher is Mrs. Roth. As you can tell from the photos below, he was not thrilled about having his picture taken. So far, he's been enjoying school, although he is too macho to tell anyone (except me when he is lying down to go to bed--he tells me his secrets then). His favorite part of school is lunch. On Thursday I made him buy school lunch for the first time. He was too afraid to in kindergarten. He still didn't want to do it on Thursday but he didn't have a choice. He was worried about not being able to open his milk carton. I said he could ask a classmate or a teacher to help him. After school he told me he didn't ask anyone for help--he simply threw his milk away, unopened.
Adam is in 3rd grade this year. His teacher is Mrs. Nelson (same name as his 2nd grade teacher). As you can tell, he loved having his picture taken. All of his friends are in his class except one, so he's happy about that. He has homework each night except Fridays--usually a worksheet.
