End of School 2014

We had another great year at the Christ 4 Kids Children's Day Out and Preschool programs at Christ United Methodist Church in Farmers Branch. Last year was our first year there and only Austin attended. My favorite part of this school (it's actually hard to choose, because I love so many things!) is that they take babies 6 months+ into the CDO program and then when they are 3+, they enter the preschool program which is more intentional about learning. This way, all my kids can attend the same place, regardless of the ages.

This past year (2013-14), Graham was in the infant room and Austin was in the Young 3s class. Graham attended just one day a week on Thursdays from 9-2 and Austin attended Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9-2. This left Graham and I to run a bunch of errands on Tuesdays while Thursdays were my days to get personal things done like dentist appointments. YAY! I also spent about one day a month vegging out with magazines. (Those are my favorite days. ;-)

Next year, Graham will move into the toddler room which is where Austin was last year and Austin will move into the Older 3s class. (He'll have then yet another year in preschool--4s class before entering kinder in 2016.) I am excited to have Graham in Ms. Pam's class next year. She is so good with that age group! Here are some pictures from the last week of school, both boys wearing the typical Thursday outfit, it was our version of school uniforms. Less to worry about in regards to stains this way!

Austin looks so grown up here. sigh.

This is how most pictures of these two look.

Taking gifts to teachers on the last day:

Austin insists on holding that door for anyone and everyone.

It didn't take Graham long to be trained to which room was his.

He wouldn't smile, but does love them!

They love to swing around these poles.

Recording the awesome door one of the other moms did for teacher appreciation week!
