The school year is officially started!

Wow!!!
The silence is amazing.
Not a squeal, scream or yell.
But also not a laugh or voices chattering about their game playing.
Its the laughing I'll miss.
I'm enjoying the silence and wondering what I'll do.

There is no drop off area outside the school anymore :(
They've replaced it with 11 car parking spots.
How ridiculous is that!!!
So where people could pull in and drop off and pick up in the afternoon ....
Nope ... can't do that anymore.
Not sure what we'll do but I suppose we'll work it out.
I'm not going back to parking 45 mins early just to get a car park.

What a day!

We got home this morning about 9am.
I was so tired.
I sat and watched a movie with boys but fell asleep for the last 20 minutes.
Darn it!!!!
Then it was lunch time and off to buy uniforms.
I expected there to be a very long line at the school but it only took us about 50 minutes to wait, select and buy the uniforms for Connor.
Then we dashed up to the Plaza to buy some more wrapping paper.
This year I decided to cover the school books in wrapping paper (spiderman, batman, madagascar and cars).
I was then going to contact them but a friend convinced me (very easily) to just put them in plastic sleeves.
So bought the sleeves.
Now we are totally ready for the school year.
New bags, lunch boxes, drink bottles, uniforms, shoes, socks, undies, books and I can't think of anything else :D

Here are a couple of photos from the pool yesterday.

Cameron's feet were all I could see as he came down the slide haha

Caught Connor just as he hit the water

Justin and Cameron

What a good day!

The oldest two boys, second day at school. Cameron started kindy.

Wow! What an amazing experience to do grocery shopping without a child or having to rush home to look after a child while Gary goes to sleep (night shift). I almost felt guilty hahahahaha

Cameron had a great start to his kindy. Though he can be "determined" at times apparently. The centre has overbooked so I was asked if he could go Thursdays instead. Yeah! That's no bother to me :D

All my babies are grown now (don't know whether I should be laughing or crying)

This afternoon I went to a friend's house where we crocheted, well, tried to crochet. I'm not the best teacher so my explanations can be sometimes confusing. Sorry! But it was fun and we did laugh. And she taught me an easier way to cast on to knitting needles. I can't wait to start practising that lol
