The Boys!!




Well to day was the first day of school. Braiden was so ready he could not wait to use his lunch box. I think he was getting a bit bored at home. There is not much you can do with a new born and little sister who is two. I must say he has been a big help to me. I will miss that during the day. When he got home today I think I was more happy to see him then he was to see me. I could not wait to hear all about school. Well the only thing I really got out of him was I didn't finish my lunch at school so I finished one the way home. Can I say that is not what I expected to hear about the first day. I wanted to know how he teacher was, what they talked about in class, what new friends he made, and so on. My mother-in- law then called and she got so much more out of him( she has four boys and has learned how to talk to them). The key I found to talking to boys is you have to ask the right questions, for example who do you sit by ,is your teacher young or old, what dose the playground look like, did you read anything. Well over all he had a good first day I think he will like his now school. Oh on a side note Royce is now 10lb 3oz.He dose not wast time growing he is good eater and and his now born diapers did not last long. In fact he grew so fast he still has some left over. This morning we decided they are small because the make marks on his legs.

I love the ideas for how to ask a boy about his first day of school - I have definitely filed those away in my brain for when that day comes. Boys are funny that way - they never go on and on about anything - even their new school. Good luck with the baby!!!He must be so cute and chubby.
