First Day/Week of Preschool



The only picture I could get of the little stinker on her first day of Preschool....at least she was smiling in this one. I couldnt get her to pose worth the life of me! (please excuse my mess of house)

**she got to wear Black and White b/c they were learning about Penguins that day so it was "wear Black and White day" I love that they do that!

Zoey got to match her big sissy....at least she will somewhat pose for me... I think Zoey was just excited that she got to be an only child for a whole 3 hours.


So Addison has officially survived her first week of Preschool....or better yet, her teachers survived their first week with Addison. The Transition with her this week went very smoothly...I knew it would. When Addie started Nursery in our church, she had no problem with Mommy leaving her, and that was the same case with Preschool. Her first day, which was this past Tuesday (1/11/11), I walked her in, and Addison turned around once she got into her classroom and goes "bye mom, go away". WHAAATTT!!! Talk about a stab in your mamma's heart. Here I was all excited and sad at the same time b/c my little girl was growing up right in front of my eyes, and she tells me to "go away". I guess I am grateful that there were no issues with her staying there by herself....but still. The least she could do was say she would miss me...but she didnt. Oh well, I am still proud of her for being such a Big Girl.

I was a little worried about her being able to sit still during lesson time, the first day the teachers said she struggled a little bit, had a couple of small fits b/c she was not wanting to be told what to do. But by today, which was her second day, she did much better---except for the fact that the teacher caught Addison and another little boy using the urinals in the boy's bathrooms as a water fountain and they were having a water fight...talk about making a good impression in your first week, Addie. And can we say GROSS!!! Apparently part of the class were in the boys bathroom washing their hands, and the teacher turned around to catch Addison and this other little boy having their little water fight. Lets just say the teacher was pretty embarrassed to tell me....what a great memory, eh???? Lets hope next week can go even more smoothly. But so far, so good with the whole Preschool transition.......YAY!!

Her preschool sounds so fun. Glad she's enjoying it and you didn't have to deal with any separation issues.
