cello

Finn has started taking cello with his teachers David and Amber at the Suzuki String School of Guelph.
He is really enjoying it.  He has a "foam" cello that he can cuddle and practice holding properly.  We also have a bow that we have been practicing bow holds with.  We also listen to a CD of all the pieces of music he will be playing.  Lots more bow holds until we get our real cello.

Nursery school

Tabitha will be going to Gingerbread Nursery School soon.  She will be away from us for the very first time.  Cross your fingers.....

Update:  First day she seemed okay when I said goodbye.  Was more interested in doll house than me.  After I left was pretty sure I heard her crying.

Update:  Second friday:  Had to peel her off my leg while she screamed and cried.  All the kids started crying (10 18-30 month olds 2 care givers) and it was just too much.  Left and cried myself in the hallway.  When I returned she seemed okay.  Decided not to send her back.  Andrew will stay home with her when I take Finn to cello.

Senior Kindergarten

Finn is really excited about starting school again.  This year "jardin" is in a class by themselves - no split JK/SK.  His teacher will be Mme. Dominique.  He has the same bus driver - Bryan- whom he so loved last year.

Chilly first day of school
