  • Goodbye Preschool, Hello Kindergarten {Our Everyday}

    Goodbye Preschool, Hello Kindergarten {Our Everyday}

    As of last Wednesday Early Bird is no longer a preschooler. She’s an official kindergartener.

    What??!! When? How?!

    I know I’m not the only proud momma out there that is both excited and terrified of their kid growing up. A little confession about me, which will come to NO surprise to my family. I hate change. Like, HATE it! I dig in with my nails and heels to change. I get comfortable with a routine, my surroundings, my comfort area. Why go and mess with it? But, having a daughter has taught me that change happens All. The. Time. Every day, week and year and if I don’t roll with it I’ll be unhappy forever and ever and miss out on some of the best times of our lives!

    So, with us saying goodbye to her small cocoon of a school and entering into a big (700 student) world of Big School I’m not looking in the rearview mirror. I’ve chosen to look to the road ahead and embrace this change because SHE is!!

    She is PUMPED to go to Big School. To meet new friends. To experience new teachers. To play on a new playground. To grow. To learn. To read. So, that makes me excited!!

    With that! Goodbye Preschool. Hello Kindergarten!

  • Starting them young … {Our Everyday}

    One thing led to another.

    I was washing my car…I looked over and then this happened… neighbors’ kids and all!

    So, of course, I had to document it!

    Snaggletooth had a week off from school so one day we headed to Big Basin, snuggled in the Santa Cruz mountains, and what feels like on top of the world. It has some of the oldest redwood trees in the US. They are just so amazing to walk under and be close to but it’s a little intimidating. Luckily, they have a short kid friendly trail so that’s where we headed. We had so much fun looking for animals, mushrooms, tried to find the biggest tree and just enjoying all that is in our backyard.
