Second First Day

Today was D's return to pre-school at Sidewalk's End. He seemed a little nervous, stating that he was 'tired', or perhaps that was because both kids elected to get up before dawn :)?! We've had a wonderful summer, but I think we're all ready to return to a more structured day/week. Here are a few pics of the morning...

D hamming it up for mom :)



















P really wanted to go with D. In fact, she cried when we drove away after dropping D off ♥.



















We celebrated the morning with orange frosted cinnamon rolls :D.














Ready to go! Very excited to see what this second year of pre-school brings to D. He LOVED last year and learned so much. I know he is missing two of his friends who aren't returning this year, but I'm sure he'll make new friends and enjoy the company of kids he knew from last year too.














To celebrate D's return, I decided to try a Body Pump class, for the first time...evah. I lack coordination in a serious way, so I've always shied away from any type of structured workout class other than spin. And what better way to announce your presence than to arrive 1 minute before class is scheduled to start, with NO CLUE what equipment to get or what to do lol. In my defense, I dropped D off and bolted to the gym, so that was the earliest I could've made it anyhow. Thankfully, the teacher got me straightened out (though she stuck me up front...in front of ladies who had probably waited in line for a while to get those 'coveted' spots) and another lady was super friendly and also very helpful. Heeeeelloooooo arms. And legs. And back. Well, pretty much heeeeellooooooo body muscles. Yep, if you see me in the next few days and I am hobbling around, you'll know why :).
