Amanda

I am uploading pictures to the computer so I can share some cute ones from Amandas B-day party and from her first day of Preschool.

Amanda had her first day of Preschool last Tuesday and absolutley loved it. She has been asking every day since Katrina started Kindergarten and was so excited to go to school that she had a hard time sleeping the night before. It was so much different for me to take her to school than it was for me to take Katrina. Although Amanda loves it, she is very shy and quiet and did not want to interact with the teacher and student teachers. She just wanted to be left alone so she could play house with the dollies and other toys. It was fun to hear all about her day when I came back....she gave me a play by play of everthing that she did including what she liked and did not like about her snack and lunch =)

Amanda also had her first birthday party on Friday. She dressed up like Cinderella and all her friends came as little princesses. They had a tea party and went on a scavenger hunt to find all the goodies for their bags, they danced and played put the shoe on Cinderella. Even with all the superb activities =) the favorite was cake and ice cream. One of the little girls blew out the candles for Amanda so we had to relight them and then help her blow them out because she couldn't seem to do it.

All in all it has been a really good week.

Oh did I mention I love having a couple of hours with Katrina and Amanda in school it gives me about an hour with Elizabeth and about 2 hours for just me while she is napping. Ahhh life is good.
