Pre-School Prep

Prepping for school was the order of the day for the last 2 days. Last night I attended the school set up at the preschool, where we cleaned, organized and got ready for the upcoming year. Everything went smoothly and we are well on our way to welcoming students back for the year. I definitely had a blast from the past though, as I walked in and saw a mom who looked very familiar, and I to her. After a few minutes, we figured out that she was a friend of mine from freshman year high school, Alisa (can't think of her maiden name at the moment) and she knows Ann and Jennifer P. as she was on the basketball team. It was wild. I am looking forward to getting to reconnect with her as her daughter and Avery will be in the same class.

Today the kids and I (along with "Aunt" Kimmie) made a trip to the mall to pick out backpacks, and a few school clothes. Avery was SO excited to pick out a backpack, just like a big girl. It was fun to watch her decide which one she wanted of the princess packs (of course she already knew going in that she wanted a princess one). Quinn of course wanted a "Cars" backpack, and when they didn't have one at the first store we went to you could see he was getting a little nervous. But no worries, JCPenny had just the right one for him and they both walked out with their new backpacks in tow, along with some new big girl panties for Avery (you know she has to announce to the whole world now that she pees in the potty!)
