Back to School 2010

It's that time of year again and Jillian was very ready to return to "school." We visited last week and met their new teachers and Rocco was less than thrilled. He could smell a change in the air and has been uneasy ever since.

This year I am not paying the extra money for breakfast so that means I have to get their breakfasts ready in the morning (like I don't have enough to do). But both Jillian and Rocco love packing their backpacks in the morning with food and sippy cups full of milk.

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

Again Jillian was so happy and practically sprinting through the parking lot to get to the door. However Rocco was a whole 'nother story. His goes along the line of hysterical screaming as soon as we drove into the parking lot and continued screaming and kicking until I get him into his room and into the teacher's waiting arms. I am told that he cries for about 5-10 minutes and then he perks up. I have yet to get a picture of the screaming/crying fit because carrying 28 lbs and kicking/squirming toddler is hard enough by itself.

Otherwise, Jillian has been trying the dance class at the Little Gym. She loves the tapping and will about tap us crazy before the class is over.

Mr. Roc was interested in the ballet shoes. Maybe we have a Billy Elliott on our hands???

As for me, I am back to work and it is kicking my tail. The kiddos come on Monday!
