Donovan's First Day of Preschool






So yesterday was his first day of school. The bus came to pick him up at 8:40 and I have to say that I am not used to this early morning thing! Thank goodness I didn't have to have myself ready as well. It was very different having him gone to school early in the morning cause when he was going at 11:30 I would be putting Bella down for a nap right after he left. So now I'm thinking this will be great for me and Bella to have some mommy/daughter time! Well..... she was just ornery almost the whole time that Donovan was gone. I think she missed him.
As for Donovan, he will be going to 2 different preschools. The main preschool through the Jordan District on Mondays & Wednesdays and another preschool on Thursdays. Since the JSD took away most of the Special Education Programs due to "lack of funds" there is no longer the kindergarten prep class, this was the class he was suppose to be in this year. So the District combined all the classes and he was put into a class mixed with 3 year olds. Obviously that didn't make me very happy because I felt that he was not going to be challenged in the way that he needs and I'm afraid he will basically learn the same things he did last year. So I'm hoping that the other preschool will give him what he needs, but he is only going to that one 1 day a week. So if I don't see any improvement on the things he should be learning this year we will pull him from the program and place him in the other preschool for the rest of the year. I guess we'll have to just wait and see!

Where did my baby go?



I can't believe how fast she is growing up! Even just last month she seemed much smaller. I think it's starting to hit me that she is my last baby.... and she's growing up too fast!!! Slow it down just a little please!
