Full Friday

We started off this crazy day by taking a trip to Maddux's new school. She will start going a few days a week beginning on Monday morning. She was very excited to go see her new classroom and meet her new teacher. When we walked in we realized that her room is the furthest from the entrance, which makes things a little difficult for me because I have to drop her off at her classroom door each morning (instead of the carpool line). I can imagine that hallway will be very congested for a few weeks!

Maddux's teacher's name is Ms. Christy, and she has about 11 kids in her class. The large majority is girls. I'll be curious to see how that plays out for Mad Dog; she could adopt a less 'loud' personality now, or a more drama-filled one, depending on the disposition of the other girls. We'll see. One thing I did notice about all of them: bows, bows and more bows!

Once we finished there, we raced over to Eli's school to meet Lehr. Since it is the day before Eli's birthday, we brought a special treat to his class during lunch time. We got there in enough time to see his class walking down the hallway to the lunchroom; he was so surprised to see us! He entered and went right to his table, as he knew to do. Of course his new little buddy went and sat right next to him, so we got to meet the infamous Drew. Eli gabbed and gabbed to Daddy, who sat next to him, while he shared some of his lunch with Maddux. Then came time for us to pass out the ice cream cups. Eli helped Lehr pass them out to everyone in his class, giving them a choice between chocolate and strawberry. Eli loved having us at school and we will definitely pop in for another surprise visit at lunch soon.
