first day of school

Today Andrew and Sam start 2nd and 1st grades, respectively. Andrew is very excited and he insisted on dressing himself this morning (I allowed this outfit only because it is only a 1/2 day of school...we will make a bit more effort tomorrow...LOL). Sam was thrilled to be going back to school. He kept climbing into his wheelchair and checking out the window for the bus. Tomorrow will be both of their first full days of school.

I will be going to Sam's school tomorrow to show the nurse how to run his feeding pump. (I am sure she already knows but it will make me feel better) He will have to get a tube feeding at school... fingers crossed that will be a smooth transition for him. Andrew is excited because he LOVES all the hot lunch items lined up for the rest of the week... however he is less than thrilled with his selection of snack items I have for him (seriously... granola bars with rainbow chocolate chips, grapes, yogurt...you would think I was making him eat cow tongue).

So now it is just me and Sean at home. In 2 weeks we are starting the Little Listeners program (Mom and Tot early literacy/story time) at the library. He was a bit concerned when his brothers got on those big busses and rode away so I am sure he will be happy to greet them when they come home.
