First Day of Kindergarten...

The day has finally arrived - Alexander's first day of kindergarten!

He was so excited this morning - getting ready, posing for pictures, giving hugs! He was so grown up and wanted to make sure he did his own hair. He also couldn't wait to show off his new backpack!

 His teacher, Mrs. Risi, asked him what name he wants to go by to which he replied, without any prompting or assistance, "Alexander". He made me one happy Mom. He was so cool and collected lining up and walking into class. I was so proud watching him walk in.

My little guy is all grown up...and I was good I held my tears in until after he walked in.

Kindergarten Orientation...

It's Official! Alexander has attended orientation for kindergarten! It's hard to believe that he'll be going to kindergarten in the fall and he's so excited!

 Orientation went very well! The kids got to meet the principal, read a few stories in the kindergarten class with the teachers and then got some free play time. Alexander is fortunate to go to school with Christina & Sean who's been going to school with since they were all 3-6 months old, so it's great for all of them.

The parents were ushered into the library and informed the kids were doing just fine and that the parents needed more assistance with the transition. The principal walked the parents through the schedule and what to expect come first day of school. It's exciting!

Hard to believe my baby is going to be going to school but very exciting!!
