Catching Up...
Audrey is now in big girl school at St. Ignatius, and man is she thriving. She totally loves her new school, her friends, and her teacher Ms. Lucy. She is excited every morning, and has a story to tell every afternoon. Friday's are her favorite, because her teacher lets each child choose a trinket or candy from her treasure chest. Friday's are now known as "Treasure Chest Day" Audrey is now insisting that I let her walk herself to class. I don't think I can do that just yet. Maybe later in the year, but certainly not now. I don't think I'm ready to just drop her off and drive away while she walks herself to class.

One of the funniest things that has happened with Audrey and school is once a week Audrey gets to choose her outfit for the day. I had no idea that the day, her day to choose just so happened to be "Picture Day". Toward the end of September Audrey was bugging me to pieces about wearing all her Halloween shirts, dresses, etc. Well for "Picture Day", her day to choose, she wore one of her Halloween T-SHIRTS with a matching ribbon. This is also a shirt from last year. I had the cutest smocked dress with matching bow all picked out...all I needed to know was the date school pictures would be taken. Somehow I missed that memo. I got the proofs back yesterday, and was actually surprised...I really love the pictures. Audrey is extremely proud of her choice of outfits, and likes the photo on the left...so the left it is. Goodness I love that girl!
