2012_08_13 Monday

Jonathan had a really rough start of the day (at 8:30). The kid gets 12 hours on average of night sleep; he shouldn't have any problem having a chipper morning. I am actually getting nervous about his mornings for school. I'm not sure when school actually begins (or when the bus will pick up), but we need some serious practice in getting up pleasantly and early. But, he almost went to the gym in his pjs.

After my yoga class, we stuck around the gym for the pool for maybe an hour. Elise managed to take a header after getting tangled up in rogue flip flops on the concrete side of the pool. Now she's got a bit of road burn on her forehead (or her sorehead as she says it). Since she goes to the day care while Jonathan has his swim class in the PM, the girls were concerned that she got banged up again (reference: her Hitler 'stash from May). Jonathan continued to have a rough day -- parts were better than others -- but he did well at class. It's so cool to see him scoop and swim underwater. He did a killer belly flop at the very end, but it didn't seem to bother him. We only have our coach, Conner, for one more class, and J has one more after that. I decided to cancel class until we have a good handle on school.

Last night, we had a rising Kindergarten happy hour at some friends' house. It was fun to have the kids play and for the grown-ups to mingle. I think all of them (or 99%) will even be at our bus stop!! Sure hope that makes it easier for everyone when Sept 6 rolls around!!
