first day of SCHOOL!








A couple of weeks ago Liam had an appointment with a speech pathologist. She felt that Liam's language is a bit on the slower side and recommended that we put him into Preschool right now to get him where he needs to be. She recommended a school really close to us and pulled a few strings and god him in. Because of the special help that he needs all of his schooling right now is covered except for the bussing & his class snack fee.






We decided to put him on the bus for a couple of reasons, the main one being that once we have the new baby I may not be able to drive him, especially if I were to have to have a c-section again.




His first day was Tuesday. He is in the afternoon class so we have an early lunch, Kylie goes down for her nap and I walk Liam out front of the house to the bus. He gets picked up at about 12:30 and comes home at about 3:40. Our house has been so quiet these last few days that I really don't know what to do with myself, you can only do so much cleaning until there is no more to do!




Liam absolutly LOVES taking the bus. All he has really shared with us about school is that he had a snack today, had a ride on the bus and put soap in him hair! He comes home so happy from school but is very tired.




I can't believe that my little boy is already in school!

Waterton

We decided as our last camping trip this year that we would head down to my Dad's for the weekend. To beat the long weekend rush Kurt decided to take the Friday off of work so we headed out Thursday night, traffic was great and we saw alot of deer on our way down.


We set up 'camp' at my Dad's house and from there headed out to a few different places.


We spent a few hours Friday playing tourist in Waterton. We decided to take a trip up to Red Rock Canyon. It was so windy there that a couple of times the kids almost fell over but it was alot of fun. Kurt and I took the kids right down into the water. It was so clear and cold and the kids just loved walking around in the water
The deer in the town of Waterton. There were deer everywhere, just laying on peoples lawns and eatting their grass.

On Saturday we headed to Lethbridge for the day to see my cousin Karen and to help her unpack her new house. It was such a nice visit and Kylie & her little girl Kaydi really hit it off and ran around most of the afternoon holding hands and getting into trouble together.

Saturday night Kylie wasn't feeling good and spent half of the night crying, we woke up to rain Sunday morning and decided to head home.

It was alot of fun spending time with Dad & Jared, it was a great way to end our summer!

We have really enjoyed all the traveling and camping we have gotten to do this summer as a family and are looking forward to life 'slowing' down a bit before Liam's surgery next month the baby arrives in November.
