Aidan's First Day of Preschool

Us killing some time waiting for Aidan to get out of his first day of preschool. The playground at his school is amazing!
She was less than enthused ... just kidding ... but she really did prefer to be in her bed napping!
It took a good week before Caleb accepted that he wasn't going any where for school like Madison and Aidan. He wore that backpack diligently and I would have to tell him everyday that mommy is his teacher and he would respond "oh".
Aidan's first day! I was so proud of him and relieved ... he hung up his backpack on his hook (#16 the blue circle) and sat down to play and just waved good-bye! Way to go big boy!
Posing for his first day.

Madison also got to wear the "adult" seatbelt for the first time ... she finally made it to 40lbs - woohoo!
Aidan showing off his new backpack he picked out!

By day four of school the novelty kind of wore off and he realized this is going to be a consistent thing he does on his own and he didn't really like that idea - day 4 drop off resulted in crying - poor guy. But by day 5 he had regained his composure and comes home saying "I love school" each day - thank goodness! He even explains things they do and told me all about learning about fire safety last week - I was so impressed at how much he remembered his teacher saying ... "I stop, drop and roll in a real fire" etc. etc.
