FIRST GRADE!

The twins started first grade in September and so far so good. Jacob is upstairs with Ms. Pierce and Mase is downstairs with Mrs. Rizzuti. It's definitely been a good start tot he year. The first day of school they were excited. But sad that they were not going to be in class with Mrs. Freimont and Mrs. T. They were definitely a little bit nervous. But they did it! And are growing by leaps and bounds. They are learning to read and the progress had been truly amazing. Well, at least I think so. But that's just the "absolutely proud of anything they do" in me talking. They have each got chosen for a "golden" ticket award so far and Jacob chose "Show and Tell" and brought in Skye. And Mason chose to "wear her pajamas to school" and sported her all in one Zebras all day.

It's always a challenge getting them out of the house in the morning. They always want to play. And not eat breakfast. Or get dressed. Or do anything you need to do to get ready for school.

Me:  C'mon, you can build an angry bird tower later. It's time to get dressed.

Mason: We hate school!

Me:  What do you mean you HATE school? I thought you loved Mrs. Rizutti?!?

Mason:  No! All she does is make us work ALL DAY. We spend the whole day learning how to read and write!

Duuuh. That's what you DO in school Mason. Poor girl totally had the wool pulled over her eyes with the kindergarten year. Silly.

Here are pics from their first day. Awwww.
