First Day of School

Today was Tia's first day of First Grade at Elk Plain! It is really weird to say that I have a first grader. I remember my first grade teacher, Mrs. Riggio! She was great! I really hope Tia has a fabulous first grade experience like it did! I am really excited for her teacher this year, Mrs. Fangman. I was really impressed this morning and it was only the first day!

She was really excited this morning ready to go in her new dress and Ed Hardy Tennis Shoes! There were no tears from her or I this year, unlike last year where we were the only two that cried. When Ron and I asked her about her day, all she talked about was lunch and recess! I wonder if that is what every conversation on the first day of the school-year will be like for the next eleven years.

Milestones

It has been three whole days since Sydney has used a pull-up! This is very exciting in the Bonds household! No more diapers, ever! She is doing so great and it is hard to believe that she is growing up so quickly. Every morning she chooses from Tinkerbell, Elmo or Dora panties! It depends what mood she is in but usually Tinkerbell wins!
The toothfairy will be visiting the Bonds household tonight. Tia lost another tooth! It was one of her "eye" teeth! I think she only has one left to loose! Speaking of the tooth fairy, I gotta go before I forget!

Dream Big Tia

Tia completed Kindergarten. Let the journey begin. It has been amazing watching her grow and her mind start to put things together. She loved her first year at Elk Plain. She really flourished. She made lots of friends. I will never forget the first day of kindergarten. Her and I were the only two to cry. By the end of the year she was getting dropped of on the curb and getting out before the car stopped. We are so proud!
When Tia grows up, she wants to be an Animal Doctor and an Artist. Some of her likes this year were Hannah Montana, High School Musical, the guitar, singing, dancing, drawing, riding her bike, skateboarding, bonding with her little sister and putting together very fashionable outfits. Way to go Tia!
