First Day at PreK

Yesterday was Kaylee's first day of PreK....school is back in session! 2011-2012 school year got off to a wonderful start! She and I went to open house last Friday and she was a little hesitant about a new class room, friends and teachers! However a couple of boys from her class last year are with her so she felt better!
On her first day she was excited that's ALL...not scared or nervous! She did want to see daddy before school though! So we got all ready, looking really cute of course and off to daddy's work for a quick kiss and some love!
Got to school, she went up to her room (the Arctic), I got a quick hug and kiss and in the class she went! She walk right in, Jack met her for a hug hello and she just smiled..she was HAPPY! She set down next to her teacher and started coloring! I got a quick glance from her as I was taking a couple pics, blew her a kiss and waved bye...she blew one back and waved....and mommy walked away proud but with a few tears! Our baby girl is growing up, in just a short one month she'll be 5!

As I tear up because she didn't need my comfort on her first day of school as she always had...I realize its not that she didn't need mommy...she's just a confident, happy and excited little girl ready to have fun with her friends and a little break from mommy! We've done well as parents these almost 5yrs...she's a WONDERFUL little girl!

Our Little Fish

Yep Kaylee is just a water bug this year! She LOVES to swim and would stay in the water all day if we'd let her! While in Florida she found that water wings were the best thing ever, of course it took seeing the other kids having fun ALL over the pool with them to confidence her! hahaha I mean what does mommy and daddy know! haha
Daddy put up the bigger pool and they have just had a blast in it! With daddy's help she has learned confidence in the pool and branched out to doggie paddling, no water wings and she loves to swim underneath to get toys that sink! I'm so glad we didn't pay for swim lessons..she's learned just perfectly with us!
Aunt Ceca has a pool in her apartment complex as well and that's been great! Its not busy and has different depths...that's great for Kaylee! Kaylee learned after a couple times that jumping from the 5ft area and doggie paddling back was a blast...and that's with NO help or floating devices! WOOHOO Our big girl! Now that the temps have starting dropping( pool water turned COLD) and the pools are getting ready to close for the year, Miss Kaylee has become bored....she misses being water logged! hahaha We are hoping for a few warmer days again soon because I really want to get her on video swimming around and under the water....its so neat and funny to watch!

Its a BROTHER for Kaylee

We found out today that Kaylee is going to have a little BROTHER! She is super excited and so are we!
