Update on the Boys

Filed Under: Family, Photography

Overall Dustyn is loving school! He has had a few off days where he didn’t want to go. This is a huge adjustment for him though. He normally sleeps till at least 7:30/8 but we are having to get him up at 6:30. All Summer long he got to go to bed pretty much any time and wake up any time. We have been trying to get him in bed by 7:30/8, but sometimes he still doesn’t fall asleep till closer to 9. They do rest time at school, but not sure if he is actually sleeping. He also hasn’t been eating much of what I am sending. Even though he eats it at home he isn’t eating it at school. I am sure just adjusting to school. Hopefully as the weeks go by everyone will get in a routine and things will get easier.

Carsyn should be getting his walker in the next couple of weeks. It should get to the company on the 21st and then we have to make an appointment to pick it up. Hopefully that won’t take too long! I am hopeful that we will get it soon and he will get used to using it pretty easily. I am also hoping that he will be able to use it for Halloween and walk around. I know he would like to be a cow but I did get that superman costume and he would be so cute walking around with that on.

 

Both of these were taken with the Olympus E-PL3 Camera that they sent me to try out. Have I told you how much I love this camera?! It is so easy to carry around and just snap photos! Linking up with This Or That Thursday, Little Things Thursdays, Thankful Thursdays and Thursday Favorite Things.

    School is always such a hard adjustment. Hope Dustyn starts eating. That's a long day otherwise.

    It's tough getting into a routine. I know this well. Our grandchildren are struggling with their early mornings. I hope the walker arrives in plenty of time for lots of practice before Halloween. Your photos are beautiful ( as always) Thank you for sharing at the Thursday Favorite Things hop. Your participation helps make it a success.I'm sorry I am slow to visit this week as I am fighting a nasty head cold and my time on the computer has been limited.Wishing you a beautiful day .

    What great shots of the boys. My 3 year old is also still adjusting to kindergarten so I know what you're going through. Hang in there girlfriend. I'm popping by to visit from Katherine's linky! Cheers, Char http://1epicmom.com

    Oh my, we're still adjusting to school here, too. Fun times! Your pictures and boys are just beautiful.

    It will get better! As a former Kindergarten teacher, my experience is to give it a month. It will be very routine after that. Once it starts getting dark sooner, bedtime will be easier. Love these updates and can't wait to see them in costume!

    Oh it's really hard for anybody to change their routine after the summer. I hope Dustyn settles in well at school soon. :)
  17. Tamar Strauss-Benjamin says

    September 13, 2012 at 7:54 am

    Hope Dustyn continues to adjust well! It is a huge adjustment for all kids, every year when school starts! Half the time, I notice they don't finish their lunches because they are talking the whole time (-: Hope the walker comes soon, so exciting!

Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest Our last 1st tooth loss. 😢 She is our youngest kid to lose their first tooth.

It’s been loose for awhile, but when she bit a lollipop at school today it became super loose and started bleeding. Then she was crying. I went to pick her up and by the time I had gotten there she had pulled it out, it had stopped bleeding, and she had stopped crying. Still can’t believe she is old enough to be losing teeth. 🦷

Nothing spectacular, but she was excited. Of course I had to film it so it was bokeh, cause it is so much prettier that way.
