Big Man On Campus

Today was the first day of preschool for Reiss. Well, the first day of this school year. Reiss tested and was placed in developmental preschool in the middle of the year last year and began attending in February.

This year Reiss is in a new classroom - and a much more fun environment - with a new teacher. We loved his teacher last year as well, but the classroom didn't have anywhere near the amount of "stuff" in it as this one. In this year's classroom, there are all sorts of stations for the children to go to for learning and play and it's just better...in my own opinion, of course.

Reiss posing outside before we entered for his first day of school. The wall behind him is a circular wall and makes up the outer wall of his classroom. A semicircular classroom....how cool is that?!?


And another photo of Reiss before his big day at "work" as he calls it. I was so proud of him for not fussing and for actually looking at the camera and smiling. Seriously, I think there must have been some sort of stellar alignment that was just right this morning.


Sunday afternoon's pool party. This photo is too small for most people to see extreme details but if you look closely, you may notice Milla has her tongue sticking out. Notice how she is only in a swim diaper in almost all the pool photos I've posted? Why again did I buy her a bathing suit?


Reiss and Milla in the pool. Daddy's leg in the foreground. Yes, it's like a family affair when we all get in that tiny pool. That sad little pool has seen its last summer, I think. James has patched so many holes in it with duct tape and modge podge, he probably has more invested in the patching materials than the pool's original pricetag.
