The start of a great Adventure!!!!

Well this summer I spent a lot of time researching preschool programs to enroll Charleigh in, come to find out she is on the "hold back" list. The list of children who have to wait that extra year to start school because their birthdays are after the Sept. 1st cut off date. I knew to expect this come kindergaten year but I didnt know it also applied to preschool. In order for her to start preschool this year she needed to turn 3 BEFORE or on Sept. 1st, if you know Charleigh she is more than ready to start preschool and her age shouldn't be a disadvantage to her. So I decided that this year I will Home Preschool her. We will use a preschool cirriculum close to what they will learn their first year, so next year when she starts with all the rest of the 4 year olds she will be right where they are. We are starting our Preschool On the 24th of Aug. I am so excited just as she is. We will also do things that Rylee will be able to participate in and Lucky for me I will have Rylee to home preschool next year! We are Ending the Last week of Aug on an Intro week, Where we will talk about the shapes, colors, numbers and learn to say our Abc's. Each week after we will concentrate on 1 letter, 1 number, 1 shape and 1 color each week.

The next new thing we are starting is a Mom and Me gymnastic class for Charleigh. This starts on the 25th of Aug. and she is extremely excited about it. Once she turns 3 in Oct. she may be able to move up to the Yellow Begginers level without mommy in the class with her. She can already do somersaults and free hang on a bar for 15 seconds, so I'm sure she will love gymnastics!!!!

Also this year the girls and I will be attending our First Kansas State Football games, we are so excited and look forward to a great Season......GO CATS!!!!!

I cant wait to watch my lil girls grow over the next few months, I cannot believe how big my lil babies are getting!!!!
