Bodily Function Noises??

I know you're curious about the title of this blog entry and I'll get to that after a quick update on Justin and the bus situation. Yesterday, Bryan went into work late to wait with Justin at the bus stop. He did get on the bus, but Bryan had to carry him on while he cried alittle. Then today, Justin actually walked onto the bus on his own!! Then he saw kids sitting in the first two rows (since he's been sitting in the front) and came right back off the bus. I picked him up and put him in the 3rd row and he didn't cry, although he did whine. I made him a chart earlier in the week and if he goes on the bus, he gets to put a sticker on for that day. Then if he goes on everyday for that week, he picks something to do on Friday.... this morning he already said Wendy's for lunch is his pick (although Madison keeps trying to change his mind to McDonalds since they have a play gym there).

Now onto the title. I had my parent/teacher conference with Justin's teacher last night. I was shocked to find out that not only is Justin outgoing in class, but you could say he's sorta a class clown. He has a group of boys that he plays with and sits with during the day and sometimes he gets too silly then when it's time to work, he has a hard time stopping the silliness. She also mentioned he likes to make 'bodily function noises' with his group of friends. So, we need to work with him on knowing when it's time to play and when it's not. She also said sometimes he rushes thru his work (like cutting or coloring) so he can be done and go sit with his friends. He does this with his homework too, so this is something we're already working on. She mentioned he calls out a lot rather than raising his hand, but she said that isn't a big issue because a lot of them do it and she's working with them on that. Oh and the funniest thing is that he is giving all his friends our home address to come over!!! I guess it's good he doesn't know our phone # yet, otherwise everyone would have that as well.. lol. I'm one of the class moms, so I have a list with everyone's # and address... so I told Justin if he wants to invite one of the kids over to let me know so I can call their parents.


Also, I wore my 'Everyone Poops' shirt last night and Justin's teacher got a kick out of it and told me she loved it... lol. For those who are reading this saying, WHAT SHIRT??? lol... here's a picture from the website where I bought it. My shirt is pink, but it has the same picture on it.
I was going to wear it when I go vote, but decided to wear it last night because who forgets the Mom wearing the Poop shirt? lol.

I'm glad you are making progress with the bus situation! We had a similar conference with my son's teacher the other day. I think it's just a boy thing. Oh, and I like your shirt. It looks familiar! ;)
