Michael's First Day of Kindergarten!

I started Kindergarten today! The kindergarten has a stagger start where half the class goes on one day and then the other half goes the second day and then the whole class meets the third day. It was kind of hard to watch all the other kids go to school and have to wait my turn but it was all worth it at the end. I've come a far way since my first day of preschool.

Got my essentials...a Notre Dame backpack!

Here I am in front of my school. Daddy drops me off everyday. This is actually the same school my mommy went to for K-5...my classroom was her 1st grade classroom...weird! I'm also very excited that my Aunt Fessy is my music teacher...although my teacher told me I have to call her Mrs. McCormick.

Hanging up my backpack.

My teacher, Mrs. Davis, showed me how to take my name (on a fish) and put it in the "Here Today" pocket.

Here I am at my table. There are three other kids who sit at my table. This is where I'll learn a lot of stuffs!

Mommy and me at my table...she didn't cry at all...but we did see some very wet eyes on some other mommy's.

Here is Abby waiting for me to get out of school.

Abby is really into shadows...she asked Mommy to take a picture of their shadows stuck together.

It was a great first day and I wasn't overwhelmed at all! :)

GO IRISH!

Ready for Notre Dame Football! GO IRISH!

...maybe next week I can get Abby to wear the mini-replica ND outfit....

Michael has issues looking at the camera...I hate it! :\

Abby's First Day of School!

On September 4th Abby started her first day (this year) of preschool. She is in the 3 year old class and actually has the same teacher as last year (which really pleased her). Thank you Nana for the pretty clothes!

Michael doesn't start school until next week so he got to stay home with Mommy...they went out for pancakes.

Here I am in front of my school with the book I brought to share that day.

This is me with my best friend Olivia (Livi). She is in my class this year. She comes over to play at our house twice a week while her mommy works. Her big brother, Landon, is in Michael's class too!

The first thing we do at school is wash our hands. I'm not scowling here, Mommy just caught me as I turned around and before I could smile. I super like school!
