Athena started 5 year old kindergarten this fall! She was so excited the night before the first day she didn't fall asleep until after 10:00. I could hear her in her bedroom tossing around in bed, playing with her stuffed animals and singing to herself:) Lots of nervous energy! She was running on adrenaline the next morning though, excited to put on her new school shoes and outfit and pose for some great pictures outside so early in the morning. I need to get her up by 6:30 to get her and Alton dressed and out the door by 7:00. Our good friends who live in our neighborhood offered to drive her to school in the morning along with their daughter. The bus doesn't come through our neighborhood until after 7:30, so there isn't enough time for me to get her on the bus and still make it to work on time. After I drop her off at our friends, I then drop Alton off at daycare and then I make it to work by 7:30. After school she takes the bus to the after school daycare program at our daycare that Alton goes to so I can pick them up together after work.

| Posing with the new backpack. Of all the backpack choices out there, she wanted a plain pink one. She loves it because it's Puma, which her big cousin Kailey likes. I like it because it's nice and BIG-fits her lunchbox, folder and any extra school stuff with plenty of room for when winter comes and we have snow clothes to stuff in there for recess too. |

| Big girl ready to take on kindergarten! Love love love her confidence:) |

| Can she be any sweeter or cuter? Hair is a little wonky since she's growing out a super short layered inverse bob. |

| We got Alton in on the photo action even though he was NOT feeling it! Ena had to hold him down in this picture to keep him from running off. I'm glad we got one decent picture of the 2 of them together:) |
Her first few weeks are going great! So far she likes everything about school and her favorite part is Art class. She also is continuing to do dance class this year one night a week and fall swimming lessons on Saturday mornings. Life is good for our busy little princess:)
