We’re back from our little end of the summer vacation. I’ll try to get up some pictures up this week although we don’t have that many tales of the boys.
We cut it close — tomorrow is Corwin’s first day of first grade at his new school. Mom will have to take him over in person because the list of school supplies is so large that Corwin can’t actually carry it all. Mom stuffed his backpack full and there’s still another bag of stuff to carry.
On the way back from the vacation we stopped at a Mall (Mom insisted!) and looked for Mom things I’ll write about in a later post. The important bit here is that Corwin got new shoes. He’s been wearing sandals all summer but now it’s time to go back to shoes. Corwin got some slip on shoes since apparently the zippered kind was just too much hassle for him. So he’ll be looking spiffy which is only right for our high style boy.
Charles will be more interesting. He’s going back to daycare after a summer at home. He doesn’t react well to change in the first place and so this is likely to be somewhat traumatic. The daycare wanted to move him up from the Two’s room to the next age room (“Green” or “Purple”) but he needs to be potty trained for that and Charles is just not there. There’s a little bit of hope. Charles is starting to get upset about having poop in his diaper. He’s started to bug Mom or Dad about it before we notice. I’m hoping that’s progress although I’m not sure how much it helped with Corwin.
