Leo started 1st grade (nearly 3 weeks ago)!

So far he really seems to like it.

Except every time I ask him about his day he says,

"We did a lot of work. That's all

we do at this school:

just work, work, work."

He's learning Arabic, which is very exciting for Ty.

Just this week Ty came home and 

asked Leo a question in Arabic.

When Leo responded the right way I thought Ty might

pee his pants with happiness.

It's our first year dealing with school uniforms.

After the initial struggle we had to get the right stuff

it's been pretty good. 

It's definitely easy getting Leo ready in the morning,

but he hates that he has to change clothes ever day

when he gets home.

One of the options for the uniform is a white, button-up shirt.

I initially bought just one

because they have to wear them when they go on field trips

but I thought Leo would prefer the polos.

He ended up choosing it any time it was available.

I asked him why and he said,

"Well, mom, I really like science

and scientists always wear white shirts."

There's no arguing with that, so I bought 

him another one.
