Ice Cream & Swim

Astrid had a great first week in kindergarten! She seems to love her teacher, her school and is happy to go each morning as Grammie has been reporting. Yay! After school they went to an ice cream social. Astrid ate ice cream with Grammie at the kinder area. Mommy is so happy for the opportunity for Astrid. LCH is a wonderful school.

Mommy took Astrid to the y to swim after she got her. We’re going to try and swim on Fridays as much as we can to keep Astrid in the pool practicing her skills! 

 

G’s

  Astrid had a great day at kindergarten! Her days was full of G’s… gymnastics and games! Gymnastics with Roe was super fun and they’re really working on some great skills. At home she was a little wild and fun, especially playing games with Oliver. 

 

Day Two

Day two of kindergarten went well. Astrid is definitely acting out a little when she gets home but it’s normal. She worked hard at swim lessons and ran to Callin’s backyard. She loves her swim teacher! Mommy got this sweet mug today and tomorrow she has students in her classroom. It’s going to be a great year! 

 

First Day of Kindergarten

Astrid had a wonderful first day of kindergarten! She got ready to say, ate breakfast at Grammies, walked to school with the three of us and went into her new classroom confidently. Mommy told her to be brave and confident and she shook her head yes and hugged mommy. It was a bittersweet day…. Mommy loves Astrid so much! 

The Night Before Kindergarten

Astrid had a good day with Grammie! When mommy picked her up, Uncle Matthew came to show his cool Tesla and grandpa got a ride. It’s really really nice inside!!

Astrid went and tried a jazz class at dance. We’re waiting to hear if she got in the class because it’s for 6 and older. She loves it though! Now she’s going to sleep.. we put the confetti

Under her pillow and read the poem her teacher sent with her. It’s going to be a great first day of kindergarten tomorrow!!

 

 

Slow Sunday

We had an easy, slow Sunday. Astrid rested, played spa/hotel, watched TV, helped bake brownies, did chores- both of us and took a break to go get her haircut! She got about 4 inches off and it’s layered now! She loved getting her hair washed and cut— it looks super cute!! 

 

Kinder Orientation

 Astrid had her kindergarten orientation on Friday. We learned all about LCH and her classroom. Daddy, Grammie and mommy went as well as Astrid. We’re excited for new beginnings!!

Rodeo & Swim

We went to a kids rodeo event in Lakeside on Saturday. We watched Maddie and Ellie’s cousin rope a goat. After we all went swimming at their Aunt Maddie’s. Astrid is officially a swimmer… she jumps in swims wherever she wants… it’s great! This was definitely the summer of swimming for her!!
