The First Day of School 2010


My Alex is growing up!!!
Today was Alex's first day of Preschool. When he was getting his backpack on this morning I think it really hit him. He has been riding along to drop Adam and Addison off at school for years, but today was his day. He had a little bit of a hard time walking up to the class/teacher, but he walked right in as I walked away. When I picked him up after class today his teacher said that he had a hard time with Circle Time, but he loved Music Time!!
Last night we had our back to school dinner. We had hamburgers, sweet potato fries, watermelon and broccoli. For dessert we made cupcakes so that we would have fun treats in our lunches. The kids used the dinosaur sprinkles, hearts and confetti.
Breakfast this morning was a hit. We enjoyed our pancake people :) Amelia was so excited for today that she woke up at 5:00 a.m. and just couldn't go back to sleep!!!!

Adam is my big 2nd grader! He woke up this morning brushed his teeth and combed his hair all on his own! Amelia and I walked him to the bus and sent him on his was. He moved up with his first grade teacher this year so hopefully it will be another great year :)
Addison loves school!! When we arrived to Ms. Pat's class she was very excited to be back at school. She had a hard time understanding why a lot of her friends from school last year weren't there today. Ms. Pat told her they had to go to other schools (Kindergarten), but Addi just didn't understand why they didn't go to Ms. Pat's. They will get their classroom helper assignments tomorrow and Addison is excited to get her chore for school :)
All in all I would has that we had a great first morning! Adam doesn't have homework until Wednesday so we will try and take it easy this afternoon and prepare for classes tomorrow!
