First day of School 2011

Last week school started up again and this year
we added Jocelyn to the elementary line-up.
Our cute little kindergartner all ready for her first day!
It was raining outside so we did the photo opt indoors.
She wanted one with her name tag too.
Everyone was so happy to start school, including Mom.
Jackson, our first grader.
Notice that there is no Mexico Jersey this year?
But he still stayed true to the sports theme
and went with a football shirt.
Jocelyn got Jackson's kindergarten teacher
from last year. We have really enjoyed having
Mrs. Costanzo.
Jackson with his class bulletin board.
His name is the dark brown hat.
Jackson got to pick his seat.
Jocelyn was still smiling when I picked her up.
I guess it was a success.
This week we started a preschool co-op with Kelsey and two of her friends, which Kelsey calls "The Mommy School". I had got Kelsey a nice cute shirt for the first day of school which we had been talking about for weeks. The day came to wear it and she put it on for about 5 minutes and that point she decided she just wanted to wear her Abby-Cadabby shirt. She didn't want a bow, and combing her hair was a bother to her. The girl definitely beats to her own drum. 
Aside from her fashion defiance, she had a great time and is going to love spending all this time with Maren and Ellyana. Everyone is loving school.

I'm glad the first day was a success. I still have a whole year and I'm dreading it with Morgan.
