School Soon

Today we meet N's preschool teacher and speech teacher, they both are really nice. When we first got there we weren't sure where to go. I know I felt totally out of my element. See Florida schools are set up WAY different then Illinois schools. There are no hallways, just covered sidewalks that lead to different buildings. We managed to find the main office, go figure the center building. The lady that is "in charge" of N's file for the school district was there waiting for us, so we knew we had the right building. The school has some good security measures, when you are visiting they take your drivers license, put it in the computer, then it prints out this name badge that has your license picture and name on it.

After all that, we meet the teachers and gave them a quick run down on N, his personality, strong points, weakness, things like that. The meeting was about an hr long, though it seemed so quick. They sent me home with tons of papers to fill out. The teacher was also TOTALLY alright w/N only going till after lunch. Not that she really had a choice, but it was nice that she was so ok w/it. I guess basically after lunch it's just nap/quite time and then some playtime, nothing really "learning" that he might miss out on. They will also help me in potty training him.....YEAH!! That I'm super excited since he hasn't really shown much interest. I'm hoping seeing all the other kids going will get him to want to go more.

A long w/the folder of papers to fill out we also got a list of things that he will need everyday....

Breakfast or $1.25 for them to supply
Lunch or $1.80 for them to supply
Backpack
Blanket for nap time
Diapers and wipes (if not potty trained)

Since this was the only day off daddy had this week we went and pick out a backpack for N, he had to have a full size one size the teacher sends home a folder of what he did everyday. N got to pick out which one he wanted and he picked out CARS, the kid is still a huge CARS fan.

So I'm sure you all are wondering with all this when his first day of school will be.....It's next Monday......it was suppose to be just a 5 day "trial" then he would get reviewed by a district teacher of some sorts to make sure the program is right for him, which at that point he would be out of school till after they say ok, then he would get to go back to class, BUT since he had such a bad time at day care they didn't want to do that to him again, so they will let him stay, plus one of the main teachers that would be deciding is at his school so it will only take a day not a week like normal. Mommy over here is having a little bit of a hard time, I'm happy, excited and sad all at the same time. And don't worry there will be pictures!!(of N....not mommy all teary eyed)

Sorry no 10 month update on M yet....She's been sick so her 10 month pic is going to be a few days late.
