Katie has now had 2 weeks of 1st Grade, and she seems to be settling in well. She is still in the Special Day Class, but is doing great with grade-appropriate learning. Part of her homework is to read to us! The longer hours at school hasn't bothered her a bit, and we love that as she goes right to sleep at night! :) She has also lost 2 more teeth! She now has 5 teeth growing in!
Kevin has been enjoying his job at Ask.com. So far he has been a contractor through another company, but by the end of September he will be hired on by Ask.com, which is fabulous.
As for me (Mom), I am enjoying the extra hours Katie is in school and am working on getting my life back. I have more time to get things done at home, and can take the time to catch up with friends.

Labor Day weekend
September already. Can you believe it??
Kevin is off at the regatta on Tomales Bay run by the Santa Rosa Sailing Club. He and his dad are camping on the beach and enjoying the weekend with their sailing friends. In the Pelican class he came in 3rd out of 6 boats. I don't go on this trip because to get to the camping spot you need to park across the bay and sail across, then you're there for the duration. Not my style. :)
My style: my bestest friend ever Mary, who I have know since 2nd grade, came down and spent Friday night and Saturday with us. She bought Katie the Pocahontas costume from the Disney Store, and we had a great pajama party! It was a blast. And while we were shopping, I had a friend who I hadn't seen in ~25 years recognize me, and now I have rehooked up with her and also another mutual friend. Wonderful.
Saturday morning we had the first full-fledged neighborhood playdate, with ALL the neighborhood kids running all over the neighborhood. It was fabulous. We have a great neigborhood with 10 kids under the age of 7, and it was fun to watch. Hopefully a sign of greater times to come. :)
Katie started 1st Grade last week - unbelievable. She's really growing up!!
