Yesterday was Alex's first day of kindergarten. He is in Mrs. O'Brien's class. He has one friend in class from church. His name is also Alex. Our boys are so used to calling each other by their first and last names that I think everyone else will pick up on it. At the end of the day Ryan and I went for a cookie social and I heard the teach call Alex W. up. I guess she was planning to use initials. What is funny, is that I for the most part call my Alex 'Alex Black.'
As you can see here, he went in and sat down and got to work. You can't see his tongue, but it is sticking out. That is the best colored picture we have from him. He was very serious! This morning he was up at 6:05 ready to go to school! So, I guess the first day went very well from his point of view. On the way home he said that school was cooler than watching TV or playing or playing video games. Now THAT is saying something!Ryan had the hardest day yesterday. I was ready for Alex to go; he was ready and he is in safe hands. However, Ryan was very sad. He wanted us to go get Alex. He worked himself up so much that once we finally got Alex, he napped for a couple of hours. Now we have to figure out what we are going to do during the days!

Yeah!!! School has finally started! We need to celebrate. Lacie and I were thinking of a playdate for the younger siblings that are so bored now that the older ones are in school.
Oh here we go!!! Sending our little ones into a new world. Luke doesn't start for a few weeks and it's only half day.
How exiting! I can't wait until Katiebug goes to school! Two more weeks! By the way, how is Breaking Dawn coming along?
My kids started school on Monday and were so excited. Parker is adjusting well :0} We spent a lot of time at school last year in which helped his transition from "I love you mom {wanting to stay home}" to "You'll see me after school."
Is Alex have 1/2 day kindergarten?
He looks so ready and happy to be going to school. I love that studious, serious picture of him working! Too funny! Abree starts preschool on the 18th. I'm so ready, and I know she is too!
Crystal! HA! Your comments crack me up! I think that boys fighting IS male bonding. Every day after school my boys immediately start "bonding" a.k.a. fighting because they've missed each other so much! I hope they stop bonding so much very soon. :) Sorry, I just had to add that.
Alex looks so cute in his uniform! It was very studious for him to get right to the work! I love his personality! Poor Ryan. Big brothers are the best! Wanna have a little kid play date soon???
