showing off a new skirt A sent her via the UPS man. she insisted on wearing it immediately.
Emilia has really loved her first week of "cole nuevo." She's happy as a clam walking into her classroom and generally heads straight for the kitchen/home area. I was a little worried about my decision to switch her school, but after this week I'm totally at ease. Her teachers are warm and engaging with the kids and the kids already feel comfortable trusting them. I also love that they give you lots and lots and LOTS of information about the school in general (ie: H1N1 preparations) and about the class specifically. Below is the general daily schedule for her class.
9:15 - 9:30 - Arrivals/Free Play.
9:45 - 10:15 - Art Project/Cooking. (I love that they cook!)
10:15 - 10:30 - Clean up/Potty time/Diapers
10:30 - 11:00 - Snacktime (They are making little placemats for their meals with their pics - OMG! Too cute!)
11:00 - 11:30 - Outside time.
11:45 - Bible/Story time (sometimes it's a bible story, sometimes just a regular story) and get ready for lunch.
12:00 - 12:30 - Lunch.
12:30 - 12:45 - Circle time.
12:45 - Clean up/Dance time/Goodbyes.
12:50 - 1:00 - Pick up.
Her teacher also sent notes home saying they are learning about the color blue, the shape of the month is the circle, learning about one another, and learning to wash hands before meals. They are also learning the blessing they sing - to the tune of Frere Jacques...
God our Father
God our Father
Once again,
Once again.
Thank you for our blessings,
Thank you for our blessings.
Amen, amen.
On the not so fun side, Tuesday night Emilia figured out how to jump out of her crib. Frankly, we haven't slept well since. Even with her mattress on the floor and surrounded by her crib, she still manages to climb out. It's been just awful. Lots of wailing and upset-ness. Thankfully the weekend is FINALLY here which means Marcus will be going to work and converting her crib to a toddler bed, and then putting on a guard rail to prevent her from rolling out. It makes me sad because it reminds me of when we set up the bed - just weeks before she was born - and now she's a big girl and ready for a toddler bed. It's just another milestone.
