Connor's First Day of 1st Grade

By the time I got up Connor was dressed and ready to go. We packed up a lunch (I don't eat lunch with my baby anymore :*( ) We had plenty of time to eat and get to the bus. Here's Connor all excited for school.

Racing to the bus stop, with Haydn still in PJ's!

Saying our final goodbyes, which went better than expected and, in Haydn's case, MUCH better than last year.

Excited to get on that bus and go off to school like a big boy.

At home he told us all about it, with much prodding! He's got his own assigned seat, cubby and mailbox. He got to go to P.E. He LOVED eating in the cafeteria, that was the favorite part of the day! He loved meeting up with his friends again, he's already asking about playdates. He even brought home a picture that he colored that he actually took time coloring (patterns and staying in the lines, such a difference from last year)! He also got to pick a jewel out from the teacher's treasure chest because he was sitting so quietly. He likes his teacher a lot and I think this year is starting off just right. After dinner I surprised him with this giant cookie to celebrate his first day of a full day at school.
