Our oldest babe is starting Kindergarten on Monday, August 6th. Such a huge deal, right?
So this is a big week for him (and all of us I suppose). Last night we had his Preschool Graduation at Bright Ideas and tonight we have Meet the Teacher at his school, Kyrene de las Brisas. He went to Brisas for a few years until bear was born so we have friends there and are looking forward to returning. Bear will start preschool there next year when he turns three. so we're looking forward to getting back to one drop off and one pick up at that point as well. Really dreading that pain.
The boys have been at Bright Ideas for about a year and a half now I think. They both seem to really love it and I think Connor is sad to leave these friends and teachers behind. He's thrilled to reunite with Aidan, Sam and Kaci at Brisas but happy he'll still get to see his Preschool friends on breaks and during the summer.
Last night we attended the Graduation and it was pretty cute. Connor has been home all week with Noah and Jeffrey. Jeff took the week off to spend time with the boys before school starts. So jealous of all of his vacay time :( He was really excited to see his friends and looked forward to it all day I think. Both papas and both grammys joined us for the ceremony. We're so so so fortunate to have all our family so close by. Whenever we think about relocating we remember how wonderful it is to have family nearby and present for our boys.

So cute! I can't believe how big the boys are getting.
Also, congrats on the Parents of the Year Award! Even after your "it's too hot to play outside" issue! Yay!
