Audrey's first day at her new school was today. It was Andrew's second 1st day (2nd day of school, 1st day with his entire class being there). I think he was more nervous about today than last week. Audrey did great. I pick her up earlier than Andrew because she only goes a half-day and her teacher said she did fine. She was all smiles and ready to go. She went right in her class this morning and was a little clingy at first. But then she sat down in the chairs where they do circle time and a couple of the other kids came and sat down next to her. She said "bye mommy", so I took my cue and quickly left. Here are a few pictires of them before school this morning. As you can see, she wasn't in the best mood. She smiled for several pictures but closed her eyes every time she smiled! She has gotten used to getting up and waiting for an hour or two before breakfast, so having to get up, eat, get dressed, get our hair brushed and out the door quickly isn't her favorite thing. Please excuse the bright reflective light coming off of her backpack. I'm not sure how to edit this in the pictures. But if she is ever crossing a dark street at night, she is all set with her reflective gear.



This picture cracks me up. How more pitiful can she look? She has gotten into the stage where everything is "Audrey's or Audrey's turn". She doesn't want me to take the picture becuase it of course is "Audrey's turn". This was right after I said, "No, it's mommy's turn to take the pictures!". I guess you can tell what she thought about that.
