First Day!

Pre-school started for Kaeden today. He's going to be going 2 days a week from 9-12. He was excited to go this morning and meet some new friends. He loves his Wall-e backpack and wanted to take ALL of his Wall-e toys with him to school. I managed to convince him to leave them at home and then we were out the door! Of course, he didn't want any pictures taken so these are just some that I managed to snap while we were getting in to the car.

His backpack and lunch box. He's more interested in the dead worm he found back there.


Of course he had to come show it to me. Eew. Somehow I snapped this right as he was dropping it.


He was 100% fine with me leaving him there. I had prepped him before hand for what the plan was. Good thing he didn't cry or it would have been waterworks for me. I already broke down before I even left the house but had composed myself to walk him in to class. Thank GOD he was a trooper and didn't cry. His teacher gave him a fairly good report today. She said he did pretty well considering he's never been in school or daycare before. She said she's going to work on his listening skills and try to keep him more focused on the tasks at hand. He had to go to time out for kicking some blocks over that a few of the other boys were stacking. :( But she said he responded very well to that and apologized to the boys afterwards. :)He refused to wear his name tag on the front of his shirt so they had to stick it on his back.

Just a sweet shot of my *baby* who isn't such a baby anymore. Still is to me though. ;)


I just can't believe he's in pre-school. Bittersweet feelings today, for sure.

Can you believe they are already in PRESCHOOL?? I never realized just how fast the time goes by until having Aidan and watching the boys grow up :( Aidan starts preschool this coming week too. Also two days a week, 9-12. I like that they only go two days a week, so it's not so hard on ME, lol.

Big boy! H has been waiting anxiously for school to start, too. She goes back tomorrow. It's been hard on her waiting when the "big kids" started going back weeks ago.
