Last night, Brian reminded me that I haven't written a new post in a while.... I've been so busy with getting ready to start teaching preschool next week, getting stuff ready for the kids to start in their classes, ballet, more gymnastics, etc that I've been too exhausted to blog!
Then my wonderful parents were here this past weekend from Arkansas! We had a great time, but it went by all too quick! They flew in late Thursday night and so we had Friday through Monday with them here! We swam, played, went shopping, ate a ton, and just hung out here around the house! We enjoyed their stay - but realized on the way to the airport on Monday evening that we didn't take hardly ANY pictures over the weekend!
"What kind of Mom & Gigi are we?!?!" we said... (here are just a few!)
They really are "best friends"!
Riding the Merry-Go-Round with Poppa and Gigi (a million times!)...
We have our preschool's "meet the teacher" on Friday morning and then we start next week! So fun!! McKenna is SO excited about school and
then when we ask Parker if he's excited, it's a resounding "No!" ---
so it should be an exciting week next Tuesday to see how he does on his first day.
I feel as if he is at a disadvantage with this whole preschool thing because McKenna started out in a 2 day a week program when she was 6-weeks old when we lived in Tulsa because I had to work part time. So from the very beginning, she has been use to being left at a program for a least a couple of days. Then in Fort Smith she was in a "Mothers Day Out" program, but the program at our church there required that the child had to be a year old to enroll... so when I had his paperwork all turned in and ready to go for last fall --- the Lord decided to move us on in our ministry here to Texas! So he missed that opportunity! We moved here almost exactly this time last year (the end of September). And the program here at Second had already began and they require that they be 15 months old to start... and well.... Parker had just turned ONE! So... he's been stuck at home with me for the past 2 years with no knowledge of what a fun experience preschool, Mother's day out, Kids Day Out, whatever you wanna call it... can be!!
So we'll see - I hope he does great!
He has two amazing women for teachers - one of them had McKenna last year!
I'll keep you posted on how next week goes in the Mills household! :)

I'm so glad that your parents were in town!!!!! I know that you all had a blast!
