last day of prep

Today was the last day of school.

Only a few prep kids turned up and both prep a and b joined together along with a few grade 1's and 2's.

I wasn't sure how Kt would handle it, but she is a big confident kid these days and she took it all in her stride.

I found out which one her teacher will be next year ... I have seen her before and have thought that she seems to be pretty good.

I also went upstairs to check out the new classroom. There was mayhem and madness going on in there, boxes everywhere and lots of stuff to sort out.

It will look a lot different by the start of next year!

Since today is the last day I had available for lone Christmas shopping I went straight from school to the shops, shopped all day and picked Kt up on my way home from the shops in the afternoon.

I got plenty of stuff for her and a few bits and pieces for everyone else. I really only need to get a couple of things now and all my Xmas shopping will be done.

The service on the mower and whippersnipper cost $270 so I am not happy about that ... and I have a very small amount available on my credit card, but I think we have managed well this year.

Still 2 weeks to go so I suppose I better not get too cocky.

When I brought kt home from school she mentioned there was a lot of blood in her mouth from her tooth and within a few minutes of walking in the front door her tooth was out.


So that is the second baby tooth gone. Her first adult tooth is almost at full size now, and her second adult tooth is visible and must have been seriously pushing on the other one.

Its a little bit back in the gum (behind where the old tooth was) but now that it has more room it will hopefully be able to move forward to its proper spot!
That reminds me that I have to make sure the tooth fairy can get in tonight!
