Braeden's 1st day of preschool...

Today was the first day of school for Braeden, well kind of... They had a class walk through on Monday for an hour which would have been his first day, and then today (Wednesday) was a half day to help them adjust to being at school. I'm sure it is a great idea for those kiddos who aren't as fond of the idea of leaving mom, but that is completely opposite of Braeden. He loves going to school to play with friends, so leaving me has never been a problem. If anything, the gradual entry is harder for him, because he'd rather stay and play!

I tried to get a few pictures at home before we left, and then in the parking lot, and again going into his class. Oh, how I respect the job photographers have! It can be difficult at times to get him to do what I want AND have the camera ready once he finally does it. Oh well, at least it's documented even if they aren't frame-worthy :)

At home and the parking lot...

Going into his class...

Anyone notice how once he got to his class, he isn't looking at me :( Too excited for school, he just waved his hand in the air and told me "bye, see ya" without looking back. Not going to complain, at least he enjoys it!

Back at home "eating" lunch after school...

Fresh Beat Band was on, so he decided he "need to watch, Mommy". This car lining up is his other activity while he avoids eating lunch, but it's so cute!

Overall, it was a good day! He must have painted at school, because well, his shirt did not have yellow on it when I dropped him off. Plus, when I asked what he did, he told me "I did painting". I guess I better get good at getting stains out, my neat little monkey is probably going to come home more often than not with stains :( I guess it's a right of passage into the toddler years. Looking foward to next Wednesday...his first FULL day... Mommy likey!
