First Day of First Grade

Jaden started first grade last week. It is kinda weird here in California the campus is huge! It looks like a college campus. Everything is outside. He goes to a different building for everything. Kinda crazy and hard to get used to. We unfortunately had a hard time getting him into a school. They only allow 20 kids in each class up to third grade. So the school next to our house was all full and all the other schools in the district except one was open and yep it is the furthest one away. Oh well. He is liking it. He loves that he gets recess, and his new favorite thing is teather ball. And he loves fun Friday, because you get ice cream! What more could a first grader want right! It's the mom that is having a hard time sending her baby to such a big school. Hopefully we can get him into the school by our house. He is on a waiting list so we will see.Ahh! As a lady at our church told me Welcome to California!

She did it!

Lanie slept all night! Wahoo. I know it may not happen again tonight, but I will still take it. She slept from 9pm-6am. what a good girl! I feel so refreshed today.If only I had someone to do something with. I guess I will take the girls to the park .I did go to playgroup last week but no one came so maybe there will be one person today. I did meet a nice lady from our church. she has two kids the same age as megan and Jaden but she has five kids so she is busy busy. I miss my lubbock playgroup!

OUr lIttle Lanie

Little Lanie is now 10 weeks old. I can't believe it! Wow, what a crazy 10 weeks it has been ,but she has been the calm to our storm. She is such a sweet baby and so cute. Jaden and Megan still love her and want to hold her every second they can. Megan last night was saying" oh you are the best sister ever". We are going to be Sisters forever. She is starting to smile and coo. And is almost sleeping all night yeah! We love you so much lanie!

This is our new favorite park Freedom.

This is a fun new toy at the park .



















Even lanie likes being outside in california, THere is NO wind!


























Lanie is warming up to daddy now, she wasn't so sure of him for
a couple of days . After he was away to california.



















Jaden loves the water at this park and gets all wet so he can get some good air off the
big slide!

California!

Hey we made it to california!The kids are adjusting well. They love this new park and we have to go almost everyday to it. Which is fine by me. The weather here is perfect! I am starting to make my way around and have found more parks the kids like and some fun shopping. But the sonic is far away and not very good:( I do miss texas and all my friends there especially Down Memory lane. I did go to a store here which was good, but it won't ever be the same:( Jaden will start school on Monday . Which makes me happy for him but sad for me. The school he will go to is year round. So I will have to adjust to that too.But here are a few pics from our favorite park.I guess I will have to show some pictures later.
