Well here it is!! The first day of kindergarten (sniff sniff)! Well, to those of you who know me it goes more like: The first day of kindergarten (sob sob)! The kids had a lot of fun, after a rocky start, the pictures can tell the story! We are so proud of our "babies" and cannot believe the time has flown by so quickly! Enjoy!
 |
| This is how you make lunches! |
 |
| Ready to go! |
 |
| Last year we had the same pic of the "double school supplies". This is for all my teacher friends out there so they can rest assured I am not a slacker mom (as far as school supplies are concerned). BTW- Target has killer deals on Crayola! |
 |
| Nice mug shots right? |
 |
| Here they are ready for the first day! They both had PE on the first day, so they have on what I refer to as "Sporty Spice" clothes. Annabelle was a little upset she couldn't wear anything fancy... Rest assured she did on day 2! |
 |
| Again with the mug shots... |
 |
| They were laughing at the black blur at the bottom of the pic, our dog Tank |
 |
| Daddy praying with them before school |
 |
| Grandpa was part of our posse on the way to school |
 |
| Benjamin is soooooo over this!!! |
 |
| More or our fan club... Mimi Not pictured Bill, Molly and Aunt Frankie |
 |
| The three amigos at school |
 |
| Now is when the morning starts to go arye... They both got really nervous which means Annabelle got really quiet and looked super snotty and Andrew got really loud and obnoxious. |
 |
| Both kids had these color sheets on their desks |
 |
| This was the first thing on Andrew's desk, and cue tears.... That's right, I didn't even open it and I started crying! The inside (I read 3 hours later and still cried) was about how the teacher knows we love our kiddos and she will love them too, and take good care of them while they are in school. And cue more tears... |
 |
| This is right before we attempted to leave and Andrew screamed- "I am not staying here by myself!" Cue UGLY CRYING! |
 |
| This is Bill swooping in to the rescue. After Andrew screamed and started crying, I had to vacate the classroom because of the ugly crying and then I had to take Annabelle to her classroom. So Bill stayed with Andrew until he felt comfortable (so her said, he may have been lying to make me feel better. Either way, thanks Babe) |
 |
| This Annabelle refusing to smile and or color because she was so nervous. This is my outgoing social butterfly who had been introducing herself to people since she was 11 months old, NEVER unsure in ANY social situation. And cue the ugly crying again!!! BTW- she told me I was never allowed to do her hair like this again because it was too "baby" WHAT THE HECK???!! A big shout out to my "Tissues and Tea" Support Group: Mom Aunt Frankie Nana (Gigi) Aunt Shari Aunt Brenda Lydia Erin I wouldn't have made it through this day without you! Only 179 more to go..... |
