changes coming

I left our formal letter of withdrawing Casper from the day care center with the director last night. We're still undecided whether her last day will be Friday the 24th, or whether we'll do one week with some days at the public school and some days at the day care. (The first week of public school is insane: 9-12 Mon, 9-12 Tue, nothing Weds and Thurs, 9-3:30 Fri. WTF? That's nice for working parents...) We haven't had teacher assignments for her new school yet, and won't until the last minute, I hear.

Meanwhile, we've also heard that Dillo will be transitioning up to a Toddler class starting on the 27th. I mentioned that he doesn't walk yet, and the scheduler said that "anything can happen in a month" (which is true, and he's certainly moving in the walky direction more and more) and recommended we put him in shoes (WTF? If wearing shoes taught kids to walk, lots of 2 months olds in tiny Nikes should be toddling about). Miss ChaCoby says they can't have him, and Miss Jackie pouted a lot - it's nice to know our Boo is so well loved.

So, as of Sept. 10 we will be paying $363 a month for Dillo and $70 a week for Casper for day care (after school for Casper). Gosh, that will be nice - under $700 a month for both!

yay; boo

1. Dillo walked across the back yard this afternoon holding onto mr. flea's two fingers.

2. I accidentally put the pizza under the broiler for 18 minutes, instead of on bake at 400. It is edible, but barely.
