First Day of School

Blondie's first day of school was so action-packed that I didn't manage to get any pictures. Here we are on the way, though:


Though we are starting behind (like a kid who was home-schooled until the third grade), we are catching up quickly. This week we're working on "push-ups" (sitting and lying down), "leave it," a.k.a., resistance to great temptation, and this trick called "around," where he walks around behind us and sits to our side. The last one is the most likely to cause total toddler melt-down mode: Blondie will jump up on the sofa and flop down to signal that the training session is over.
