Ava Goes to PreK

 Today, Ava started PreK.  She was so ready to go back to school.  Not that she didn't LOVE having our full attention during the day while Carli was at school last week, but I must admit that she got a little bored.  Apparently Momma is not quite the playmate that Carli is...even if I am a lot less argumentative!

Last Thursday, we went up to Oak Tree Academy for Ava to meet her teacher.  We already knew her teacher, and were pretty stoked that Ava had gotten Mrs. Denise for PreK.  Carli had Mrs. Denise a couple of summers ago and absolutely loved her.  Turns out, Mrs. Denise's hubby work at Trane with Keith and they lived in our old neighborhood!  Small world!

 As I was getting Ava ready this morning, we figured out that she had outgrown every single pair of her tennis shoes.  Oops!  So, she put on Carli's shoes and they weren't far off from fitting and we made a trip to the store after school to get her a new pair.  Ava is on a Minnie Mouse kick.  She choose to wear hear favorite Minnie Mouse shirt and her new backpack is Minnie Mouse as well.  She's grown quite a bit from this time last year...

 Ava is in a class full of kiddos who haven't ever been to OTA.  She was a little apprehensive about not knowing anyone, but true to herself she didn't disappoint when she came home telling us all about her new friends.  Ava is naturally outgoing, if Carli isn't around to tell her that they are very shy.  :) 

Ava is going to have an awesome year at OTA!  She is looking forward to learning so much this year.
