I am happy to report that Jule is doing amazing in his new school! We are very happy with the new school, and he is happy to go every morning. He is in a class size of 6 compared to 14 at the last school. Also, his teacher truly loves him and enjoys him. It is so different from him having a teacher that barely tolerated him. When we moved him, we chose not to reveal any information about the other school's issues with him, except for the fact that he does not nap. His new school keeps telling us how smart he is and how funny he is and how proud of him they are for knowing his colors. This is so different from hearing that he doesn't interact with other kids, screams all the time and doesn't know any words but "otay." I am very thankful that he is doing so well and that they love him so much. I am still taking him to be evaluated by Developmental Pediatrics next week mostly because we went through a lot to get the appointment. I'm fairly certain they will say nothing is wrong with him, though I'm not sure what they will think about him not being able to jump yet.
Noly is doing very well in Kindergarten. She loves riding the bus for a short time in the mornings and loves everything about school. She already has homework and is not really fond of that. She keeps getting in trouble for playing and not listening, but I'm wondering if part of it is her level of excitement about school. She gets wound up very easily. One nice thing is that both kids are asleep by 8PM because they are so exhausted. That gives me some time to be alone a little or to be with Kevin when he is in town.
Work has slowed down, and for that, I am VERY thankful! I was working on a huge project part of July and most of August, and it left me little time to do anything extra. Hopefully, I'll have a little more time to blog ;)

Smart idea not to reveal the previous school's opinions. All children are so different and develop at different time-lines...Ella still cannot ride a 2 wheel bike but it's her choice. She doesn't really like to ride her bike. Hope all goes well at your next appt.
glad to hear about Jule and I'm sure Noly will settle in. Take it one day at a time.
Yay!!! That's so awesome that Jule is settling in nicely and that the staff loves him so much already! Very wise not to share the info from the other school and let them form their own opinions!
Glad Noly is doing well too!
