Preschool!!

"First day of school, first day of school, get up, get up" - cute line from Nemo and also our house last Monday. Except, of course, I would NEVER have to wake Nick up for anything since he's a crack-of-dawn type of a guy. The first day was "orientation" so it was nothing organized, a few activities set up for the kids and paperwork for mommies. Nick managed to christen the toilet and fall down the "loft" stairs and get a sweet foot long scrape down his back in the two hours we were there. Despite the injury, he kept asking, "when are the stories and the learning things going to start?" That's my boy. He was very excited when I told him that the next day he would start those things and then he kept saying, "Tomorrow is my real school." When one of the teachers brought him out to the car on the second day (such a great bonus of this school) she said, "He's like an old pro". They said the same thing on the third day. That's my boy. Ryan picked him up the third day so Nick was beside himself with excitement and pride when he ran in with his hands wrapped around something hanging around his neck. He told me to close my eyes and when I opened them....A FROOT LOOP NECKLACE!!!!! By the grin on his face you would have thought it was an Olympic gold medal. He was so stinkin proud of that thing. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture because it was consumed by him and Chelsea within about 30 seconds after the display ended. I did get some pics on the first day though...

Having a little trouble keeping the eyes open today. Must be the excitement. Let's try again...

Hmmmm. Not quite. Keep them nice and wide open this time...

A little too wide!!! Great job Chelsea though!
