A New Chapter

So here we are opening a new chapter to our lives. AJ has decided that she wants to be called Alexis now and I guess that's just the Kindergartener in her coming out. Today is her third day to be a Kindergartener and she likes it for the most part. Ken and I walked her into the school and were trying to get her into the classroom when we were stopped in the hall. They didn't allow parents past a certain point... It broke our hearts... "You mean we can't walk her in? But we have her school supplies...." The lady took the supplies and another woman started to lead AJ off to her classroom... BUT.. WAIT! We didn't get to hug her yet! I mean - we have been preparing for this for a while but we never thought it would be so soon or so abrupt...

We have had to make a lot of adjustments lately. Monica has moved in with Kaylee and things are going pretty well. We all get along and we have started to settle into a routine but AJ is having it rough with the new baby... Its hard not being the center of attention anymore... So we're working with her. Giving her our undivided attention at times and doing things specifically with her and for her and at the same time being careful not to spoil her with attention... After all this is going to be a long term thing and she's going to have to get used to the idea that she won't be the only child forever... Right?...
