Busy as a bee...

On Thursday, Shaun and I had the opportunity to visit Christopher's Kindergarten class for Open House. We were able to see his teacher, check out his classroom and meet some of his friends. As you can see by the photo he was VERY HAPPY to show us his classroom and the things that he likes to do at school! He likes his teacher, Mrs. Hooper, he loves Science, and is starting to make new friends like Emily. He is a very smart little man. When the teacher went around the room to ask the kids their Dreams and Hopes for the year they all basically said to learn their ABC's, write their name and he said, "To be able to read harder books." The list of all their hopes and dreams is posted on a poster in the classroom. He has been working on his sight words and is doing very well. When we read to him he does recognize a few words here and there. He is also doing very well learning the sounds that the letters make. They haven't started doing that in school yet but they will later in the year! He is growing sooo fast!! :)

The above picture is a photo of Christopher's "ALL ABOUT ME" poster. He is very creative starting with the shape of the poster--"A TRAIN"! As you can see he included photos of himself, his family, Karate with Joshu, that he likes to draw, his fish "Speedy", his cousins:Cole, Carter, Alexander, Elizabeth and Bryce, that he likes to go to the beach and visit family in Maine, that he lies to go on vacation with his Meme and Pepe, he likes to be silly with Aunty Valerie, that he lives in Connecticut, he likes animals and that he wants to be a Train Driver when he grows up! He had so much fun with this first Kindergarten Assignment!

Yesterday Christopher went to the dentist for his 6 month cleaning and Dr. Nadeau told him that his two bottom teeth are loose!! Above is a photo of his cute little smile and all his teeth. He wanted a picture of his teeth before he starts "getting holes in his teeth" as he called it! So take a good look--he might be singing, "All I want for Christmas is my two bottom teeth"...

Last night Shaun and Christopher went on a Father / Son Campout with Church. Above is a picture of Chris in front of the line of tents early yesterday evening. He was soooooo excited coming home from school and having Shaun come home early. They packed the car and away they went! He had fun playing with some of his friends from Church. They have been going since Christopher was 18 months old. It's always a special time for the two of them! :)
