First Day of Kindergarten!

On July 25th Christian started his very first day of school!  I woke up that morning to the sound of someone clanking in the kitchen.  When I peeked downstairs this is what I found:

 

Christian was so excited for school he woke up, got dressed, made and ate his own breakfast and made his bed all before 7 am.  He was waiting to leave with his backpack and was pretty disappointed when I told him he’d have to wait for almost an hour before school.      He was a little annoyed at me making him pose in front of the house because he just wanted to go, go, go!     

This photo shows a little better all of the things he picked out for his school gear.  I was really surprised that he didn’t pick a cartoon bag, instead he picked his favorite color…so I guess he likes green better than cartoons.  He must have good taste. ;)  Isn’t he handsome?  Even with the sun in his eyes he’s darling. 

He kept walking ahead of us (Jared took the day off and we all walked him to school).

I thought is was so cute that they had the mascot waiting for the kids right at the front by the kindergarten playground.

They let the parents walk their kindergartners in for the first time which I was really happy to do.  Christian posing outside his classroom!

I am so happy that my big boy is excited about school.  This is his third week as I write this and he is still so happy to go see his friends and teacher and to learn and do new things.
