1st day of school-Tiny Hands

Allie was thrilled to be FINALLY be going to school.  All of the neighborhood kids had already started and all her playmates were gone.   I had left to get in an early workout at the gym this morning and when I got home dad had told me you woke up at 7 am.. You immediately got dressed in your back to school outfit you had picked out the night before and were ready to go. I had bought the apple outfit years ago in anticipation of you wearing it to Kindergarten so I was thrilled beyond thrilled when you wanted to wear it for your 1st day of preschool:)   

Mom and dad decided on holding you back this year; not at all for social, educational, or any of those reasons.  You would have excelled just fine in Kindergarten, but we were selfish and we figured if we could have you one more year at home, that would essentially give us one more year before you had to leave for college:)  Sophie would be thrilled to have you around for one more year to play with her too. 

We are trying out a new preschool called Tiny Hands.  We absolutely loved our preschool last year but decided to switch things up for this year.  We don't know anyone but it sounds like there is a whole lot of fun that happens.  Once a month the preschool goes on a field trip and once a month they have a day in the kitchen where they are baking.  There are 7 girls and 3 boys so I know there will be some good friendships made.  Good luck sweet girl!


You had told me you wanted your picture by the front door


By the school table


Out front....seriously did we really take this many pictures in all these places last year


One more goofy one before you have to sit down and be serious
