The girls had a good first week of school - Brooke has afternoon Kindergarten (she is called a Late Bird) which means she gets to eat lunch at school. Kara kept saying she is an Early Bird & we can't convince her that in her grade there is no such thing as Early Bird & Late Bird.
We had to talk to Brooke about the difference between snack time and lunch time at school (I did not know she would have both). She wanted to take a lunch to school today since she did not like what was on the menu. However, she said that she was hungry at recess and ate the pizza lunchable we packed her for snack. We asked her what she did at lunch time - she bought lunch from school and only ate the muffin that came with it. She is very silly, but she wasted $2.25 off of her lunch card for a muffin (and she probably only ate a few bites of her lunchable at snack time). Tomorrow she will get a snack & will be sent a separate lunch. No wonder there is a problem with obesity for kids - they are cutting P.E. but giving the kids extra food breaks. Am I alone in thinking it's strange to have a snack break and a lunch break when they are only in school from 10 am to 2pm?
Kara is on the short end of her class (big surprise). There was one girl in line the first day who was at least as short if not slightly shorter. See the attached picture to see how much taller the average kid in her class is than Kara (that girl in the picture really is in Kara's class and she is not the tallest kid in class either).

Oh, I love first days of school. You never have that same excitement again! The baby's room is going to have a western/cowboy theme-no it is not because we are in Wyoming, but because I fell in love with some vintage cowboy fabric at the store! It is mainly reds and blues. No name decisions, still Andrew (Drew), Nathan, Easton and Cade. I really don't think we will narrow down from there until he is born and we can see him. Love you guys!
