I love that you can even see her little hand up next to her face. Unfortunately for her, It looks as if she may have inherited my nose. All my other kids have gotten their daddy's nose, hers might change....She's still got a few more months to cook! Isn't it amazing that at just 24 weeks along she's already a little person with every part she needs?!
Lindsay just started 2ND grade and Alyssa is now an official Kindergartner!
...this is them ready to go!
I can't believe Lindsay is a 2ND grader, how does time go so slow....yet soooooooo fast?!
This year at our school they are beginning a new Chinese Immersion program which I am very excited for Alyssa to be in. It begins with the Kindergartners this year and they'll stay with it through sixth grade. For her it's an extended day and she'll spend the whole morning with some cute teachers hired from China. Only Mandarin Chinese will be spoken and they'll learn all lessons in Chinese. They stay for lunch then afterward they get an hour and a half with an english kindergarten teacher. Through the years they will do half the day in all chinese: math lessons, reading, writing and everything totally immersed in chinese and the second half the lessons in english. What an amazing opportunity it'll be for her to know the chinese language, which is a language spoken by millions or billions (I don't know the stats). She will certainly have a leg up when she is older! I know she'll excel in this program, because although she is still considered 'special needs' she has a brilliant mind and picks up quickly on things like this.
I had to throw one in of Cameron...he doesn't get enough exposure on this blog! As you can see I try to inundate him with boy things and brain wash him to like spider man. He'll be so surrounded with sisters his whole life....like I was, So I need to try my hardest to 'boy' him up! Any suggestions are welcome...especially when it comes to potty training this little guy...he is so stubborn and just won't do it!!!
I thought I'd put this on my blog so I can watch it anytime I want. Hope ya'll enjoy it too.
If the video isn't working go to this link to watch it....it's awesome! http://www.viddler.com/explore/Fragua/videos/1/
Lindsay's worry is that this will "be so much more work" for her! She's right!!! The joys of being the oldest!
