First day of (pre)school!!

Pretending to be an old man, hence the stick.....
Only pic of him smiling and looking at the camera...

Byron's cubby, so proud....It was our little guy's first day of preschool today. He did great. Aaron was off so the whole family loaded in the car this morning to drop Byron off. He was being the biggest goof! It was impossible to get a picture of him smiling and looking at the camera at the same time.

Once we got to school, we walked him to his classroom. He was excited, but did turn around once we were at the classroom door and wanted to hold hands as he walked in. We looked around and found his cubby where he then hung up his backpack. Aaron and I left soon after that. We didn't want to prolong the goodbye when everything seemed to be going well.

It was not as hard as I expected to drop him off. He was so happy. I got a little sniffly, but no tears. :) It's just such a big milestone. I can't believe he's school age now.

It was only a hr and 1/2 class today. I picked him up at 10:30. He was sitting by the books waiting for me. He said that he had a great time. His favorite part was the snack (pretzles, water and a napkin). He did say that they read two books, colored a little, and then Mrs. Marritt has a parrot and likes carrots and Mrs. Skipper has a zipper. :)

I'm hoping he's always so excited and happy to go.

Pete and Alisha are also in town. We got home and Pete had a early birthday present of a Batman set of Trios. Byron is in heaven. We managed to pry him away from the toys for lunch, but alas, no nap. He's going to be one tired boy this evening. Maybe he'll sleep in.

We're planning on hitting the beach this afternoon and then having a barbecue this evening with the Duttenhaver's. Fun times!
