Addie's First Day of K4

Our big girl started K4 this past week. She's doing 3 days at school and 2 days at home. We're doing math and reading and having so much fun here!

She went to school for a one hour Meet and Greet on Wednesday, and then we were out of town Friday. So Monday was her first full day!

I'll be honest with you, i saw tears. big crocodile tears. and they weren't from me! we've developed a bit of anxiety over anything...and everything. last night: tornadoes, gingerbread men, the little boy who wasnt nice to her at the ymca, being sick, that her throat hurts and she's coughing, and gymnastics.

um...can we say avoidance strategies.

Addie was super excited and at the same time my-tummy-hurts nervous.

My mom and I, a bit last minute, pulled together a first day of school dress for each of the girls.

I was pretty pleased with how it turned out! I'm pretty sure my mom's amazing. Just saying.

Audrey Kate was more than willing to lean close to addie and have her picture made. love this picture of them!
anne perry, on the other hand, not so much. 

but i love this. love that he loves her so much. love that she loves him so much.
and when i picked her up, happy as could be. all smiles. so i know tomorrow will be another good day. it's the little girls very first day at MMO. they have the most amazing teachers, addie's 2 year old teachers, and they'll be just fine!

now...if i can only get people to stop asking me what are you going to do with yourself? umm...let me get out my list, and i'll get back to you! ;0)
