Kindergarten

This whole Kindergarten thing has been interesting. Kade loves school and I can tell he is soaking things up like a sponge! Even the bad things...for example in my post Sunday he learned a bad word. And then yesterday we had this conversation between Ryan, Kade and I. I don't remember exactly how it lead to this subject but this is what I remember.

Ryan: Have you kissed a girl?
Kade: Yes!
Ryan: You should only kiss your Mom.
Kade: I kissed a girl on the play place.
Ryan: Oh you did. Who did you kiss?
Kade: The girl in the yellow shirt.
Ryan: What was her name?
Kade: Taylor!
Me: Where did you kiss her? On the cheek?
Kade: No....on the hand!
Me: Thinking, thank goodness.
Ryan: Why did you kiss her?
Kade: We were playing Dragon Slayer and I was the prince. She was going to die and I saved her.

I have no clue what is up with Kindergartners and Indian burns. I just read a blog post the other day about Indian burns but yesterday at the store I look over and Kade is giving Kamryn an Indian burn. I yell at him and then ask where he learned that. He said, "From Tommy, it feels good!" Well Kade and I had a talk about Indian burns after that. He still says they feel good. I remember I never thought they felt good as a kid. My older sister Bree liked to give them to me!

Something Kade is doing well at is writing his letters. He didn't like to trace them very much but looking at the work he has been doing in school he is improving so much already. He has also been learning lots of new songs. I always here him singing to Kamryn in her room. Yesterday it was BINGO! So cute!

Kindergarten Registration

What day is today? Is it Friday the 13th?? You know when something happens and then the events following it just continue to go down hill. Instead of getting frustrated or embarrassed I just laughed.

Here is what happened:

I decided to get Kade registered for kindergarten instead of putting it off and procrastinating. So I got all the documents I needed ready and off to the school we went. Kamryn was a little hungry so she wasn't the happiest. Luckily no one else was there so there wasn't any waiting. As I am filling out the paperwork my brain must be a jumble because instead of putting my information where it goes I start to fill out Kade'swhere mine should go. In the meantime Kade is taking the sticker he got at the grocery store and sticking it to the trophy case...and other crazy boy things. I go over to get the sticker off before it is so stuck that it leaves residue and someone walks in the door. Wind blows in and my papers blow everywhere scattering all over the floor.

Kade mentions that he has to go potty and is doing "the dance" there is a restroom right there for the faculty and the lady behind the desk politely tells me he is welcome to use it. I didn't want to have an argument so I let him go into the men's restroom thinking that he is going to do a quick #1, wash his hands and be out. Well a few minutes pass by, I am wondering where he is and hoping he isn't doing something naughty in there. I am thinking he hasn't even started school and if he does something bad, he is going to get kicked out before we even get him enrolled. I thought I mayhave here a yell, saying I'm done, come wipe me. I know that nobody else has gone in the restroom so I walk to the door and knock and open it a little and ask if he was ok. Sure enough he is done going #2! So now I have to proceed in there with Kamryn in my arms and wipe his butt! As I lean over a little to wipe him Kamryn spits her binkey out and yes it lands in the toilet. (Me rolling my eyes and taking a very deep breath) I can't flush it or it will get clogged so I had to do the unimaginable and get the binky out and throw it away. YUCK! I go back wash my hands and help Kade. I am partially fortunate that when he went into the stall to go potty he didn't lock it.

I get back and proceed to fill the paperwork out having my papers blown across the table and onto the floor one more time, Kade is actually being good and Kamryn is scooting/crawling backwards on the carpet off her blanket.

Good times....
