BACK TO SCHOOL!!!

So the kiddos went back to school today and Lily for the first time! They were both very excited! Jacob refused to let me drive him to school on the first day! He insisted on riding the bus. Lily is in afternoon Pre K so I take her to school at 1 pm and then I pick them both up at 3:30! I am sad not to have Jake around during the day now. He is a big 1st grader and is no longer my big helper at home! What will I ever do without him here! He is excited to eat lunch at school with his friends and already today thought as soon as he got home he was starving! HAHA Lily got Jacob's old Pre K teacher from a couple of years ago and we are so excited about that! She is AWESOME!! She even remembered Lily and was excited she was in her class.

This was before Jake left to catch the bus!

What a couple a cuties!!

Going to the bus stop!!!

Chillin at the bus stop!!!

Here comes the bus!!!
See you later Mom!!!


Then Came Lily's First Day In The Afternoon!!!

Grandma Bushman came over to watch Leif so I could take Lily into the classroom and say goodbye!!!

Lily has to carry this tote instead of a backpack! Apparently to many parents were buying their kids to small of a backpack so they make Pre K carry this instead!!

Here I come John Ross!!!

Waiting in line with her class before they go into school!!!

Some of Lily's new classmates! Then it was time for me to say goodbye. She just waived and really didn't care that I was leaving!!!

Leif waiting with me to pick up them up on their first day!!!

Here they are ready and waiting to be picked up!!! Aren't they cute!!!

They sure are cute! I can't believe Jacob is in first grade! It's too bad we don't live in the same place! He could be in my class! Your blog is super cute, by the way!

I can't believe Jake is in 1st grade! I didn't realize that him and Rachel were close in age. Fun to read!!

what cute pictures. How fun. Your family is growing up. I wish I would look that cute on the first day of school, like your kids did. Our school starts Monday and I'm pulling my hair out with all the things still to do.

You got the whole documentary with all those pictures! I love the first day of school. It's so exciting and crazy and peaceful and . . . the kids are growing up! They're cute. Hope the whole year goes as smoothly!

How fun. The hugging picture was cute. I'm jealous of the bus thing. Ella's preschool had tote bags too because it was just too hard for the teachers to go through each individual backpack. The uniform bags with names on it were easier. Ella uses one of those totes as a trashcan in her room. I can't believe our boys are all-dayers now. It really seems like yesterday I was coming over to your house having you help me get a hold of Wade so I could go to the hospital. Wow!
