Kindergarten!

So I haven't posted about Jordan's Kindergarten yet...

I'm somewhat mixed with the curriculum. First week I was told they would be learning colors. Colors? Really? O Boy I thought. Are there really kids that don't know their colors yet? But, as it turns out, they learned how to spell and write the colors which I suppose is better than just learning what green looks like. Hmph.

Each day Jordan comes home with a report of whose name was on the chalkboard for "misbehavior." Now, as far as he's told me, Jordan's name has NOT been put on the board yet. I did ask his teacher Mrs. Mace how he was adjusting and she told me for the first few days he was silly. I can only imagine what that means. In fact I know what it means because she told me he was hiding behind her. I think as soon as she introduced the "I'm in charge" speech he settled down and decided to only be silly after 3:13pm. Lucky me :)

Here's a pic from the first day...yeah yeah...I know 2 weeks late. I never said I was perfect :)

Happy New Year! Happy Kindergarten! Happy New House!

Happy Craziness from the Amayas! That's what I wanted to send out this year as a NewYear card from us! All great stuff, but we've been super busy with all the changes going on here!

We've been in our new house for about 2 weeks now, and as you can imagine, pretty busy trying to unpack and get "settled" with 2 kids in tow. We also were very excited to see Jordan start Kindergarten at the Gregory School!

We went to SouthJersey on Saturday to celebrate the New Year, and because of all the new changes with everyone, we decided to go out for dinner rather than do it at home. I have to say it was a load of fun. Everyone was very relaxed, we all ordered whatever we wanted (Jordan got a hot dog AND pancakes) and all in all the kids were happy and not too silly. We got some great pictures of Bubbee and Zayda with the kids so I'm posting them here. We did however, miss Samala and Mike in the festivities.

PS. I'm not posting any of William because Sadie decided to play hairdresser with him and the poor guy-well let's just say his hair was a big ole mess.
