1st Day of Kindergarten





Today was Baylee's first day of Kindergarten. They asked the parents to stay with the kids for the first day so that it wouldn't be as "scary" for them, and also to give the parents a chance to learn about what to expect in this first year of school. I have to admit...It was nice to be able to stay with her and watch how excited she was to feel like a big kid. Although this was the first day, she doesn't have class for the rest of the week so that the teachers can do "kindergarten testing" with each of the kids. She will start her first full week of class next week.
As we were walking back to the car she informed me that I can keep walking her in to school, but just until she learned where her class was and then she can do it by herself. Only one day down and already she is trying to get rid of me!!!
I am so proud of her. She is going to have a great time and will learn a ton. She is such a smart girl and so well behaved...we have nothing to worry about...right???

Sounds like mom and little girl will do fine for starting school. I cried when parker started.
They grow up WAY too fast.

Enjoy this time. Before you know it, Avery will be starting school. Time goes by so much more quickly now that the kids are in school.

Baylee is so cute in those pics.

Wow she looks like such a big girl in her little sweater! She is so cute and it will be so nice to have her in school for at least half the day! Does she know anyone in her class, is she at Antelope?

Oh kindergarten. The absolute worst thing I've had to do so far is send Cruz to K. I cried every day for a week and called the school every day to see if he was sitting in his class until they told me I had to stop calling. He loved it though and couldn't wait to be rid of me.Baylee is adorable in her little outfit.
