They were so cute this morning! They had homemade pancakes for breakfast at their request. And they both flew out of bed and were in the shower before I knew it.
I heard Adam last night telling Ashley some tips for school. He said "Ash, it's really easy, you just color and play, but you have to stay in the lines when you color, the teachers tell you good job when you do." Ashley said, "oh, ok Adam, I will!"It was adorable!

Our BIG first grader! Adam has not been looking forward to going back to school, he has been pretty whiny the last few weeks. Yesterday we got to go see his classroom and meet his teacher and that got him excited. Last night he actually had trouble falling asleep because he was excited for school. After I told him that his first class everyday is PE he was game! And when we left after meeting his teacher, he told me, "Mom, her room was pretty cool, and she's pretty nice. First grade might be kinda fun"
Whew, it's way too early in the game to be sick of school!

First day of preschool! She has been talking about this for months! She has been telling everyone she sees, Ashley is big girl, she's going to school! It's finally here. I was a little worried after meeting the teachers this week. Ashley wouldn't say a word to either of her teachers and cried when I said we'd come back on Wednesday. But this morning she didn't even bat an eyelash when I said I was leaving. She was across the room and she yelled out "Bye, Mom!" and went right back to playing.

Showing off their backpacks!

Jakey likes back to school too! Ahh, the whole house all to himself!!! :)
He was really sad that he didn't get to stay at Ashley's school. He was trying to jump out of my arms to get to the playground and when we got home he picked up the extra lunchbox and went to the stairs and said Bye, Mommy, I go to school!! It was so cute.
He's adjusted quite nicely, I think he's enjoying being able to have the tv and all the toys to himself.
