Yes, we are still here, just haven't made blogging a priority :)
Quick recap...
- My sister, Carrie, got married in CO on August 23rd, so we had a family vacation to CO. Beautiful wedding, beautiful bride and groom. (are really adorable flower girls!)
- Got home from the wedding and our computer died. We had to order a new hard drive. So I was offline for several weeks.
- Maria's first day of 1st grade. We love our school and her teacher seems great. The only bad thing is her long bus ride to and from school. She doesn't seem to mind it yet as she's making new friends.
- Raymond started preschool at the YMCA. He goes to 'school' 3 days a week. He really likes it (a total 180 from his preschool classes last year at comm ed). He is also excited because once a month, they get to go swimming (their first swim day is tomorrow). He was the VIP last week and got to bring snacks and a toy to share
- Greta is crawling, crawling, crawling. She pulls herself up along all the furniture. I think she'll be our earliest walker (good or bad). We had to babyproof once we got home from CO because she became so mobile so fast.
- Dave was in the boundary waters last week. They had great weather and a good time, but we are glad to have him home!
Those are the highlights our of past month and I'll try to be a more constant blogger :)

Wow, Greta's already pulling herself up? What a smart little girl! How time flies!
That third child has to pick up those skills fast to keep up with the bigger siblings.:-)
Glad to hear Ray likes his school experience. I think it's more important, at this age, that they like it, so school is seen as a positive experience! I'd be curious as to what the differences are between the two programs, like less structure vs. more, or less acadamic vs. more. Just the early educator curiosity in me.
Sounds like the kids are all falling into good routines, LOL :) Way to go on the spelin test Maria!
Glad Ray likes his school time- like Auntie S, I'm interested in the difference from last year also. Maybe just age- growing up a little?
Take care!

I think the differences from preschool last year are:
- this preschool is 3 days a week where the other one was once
- we are calling it 'school' and he even has to bring a backpack
- the teacher last time had a heavy Asian accent and he had a very hard time understanding her so didn't like to go
