Hunter started Kindergarten. He is magnificent. it was completely anticlimactic. I find myself wondering about all the free childcare sometimes. But otherwise it has been a smooth transition. We have learned to get up earlier and get on the road quicker. I already dislike packing lunches but enjoy not being harassed for food every 20 mins throughout the day.
Sage started preschool. Also anticlimactic. She adores it, although I don't think it is exactly what she pictured. Both kids assumed they would walk in with ready made comfortable friends. They have forgotten that at the beginning of preschool everyone was new. Sage also started a highland/ballet class on Mondays. She was again, disappointed that they were doing fundamentals as oppose to attempting the entire fling on the first day. She is with three other girls and her lack of competitiveness shines through as she spends most of the class entertaining her peers or playing with their ponytails. There are no dull moments with Sage.
Jasper is awesome. He doesn't sleep well, but neither did Hunter so...ok. It is completely worth the trad off as he continues to be this easy going ball of chubby pudge. Completely delicious. He now climbs, and is seconds away from walking. He will stand unassisted and seriously thought about taking that first step yesterday, then decided against it. I will miss him crawling, it looks exactly like a bulldogs walk...shoulders and hips moving in opposite planes. He says Dada (gah!), Nana, tata and ( finally) Mama! Yesterday he started pointing at things. I wish i could capture how mellow he is. Its beyond reason. I just feel lucky to have him, to be near him. He is a gift.
