Nathan's First Day of Kindergarten!!

How did we get from here to Kindergarten so fast?!
He may be a "big boy" now, but this is how I will forever see my sweet boy...

How old does that make you feel???


The day has finally arrived...Nathan started Kindergarten today! He is so excited!

Last night went great...he and Natalie were in bed by 8:00 and he slept well all night, despite the thunderstorms that rolled through all night long. Amazingly, our morning went extremely smooth...

dressed himself.................check
backpack / school supplies....check
shoes.............................check
hugs and kisses for mommy...check
buckle his own seatbelt.......check

Well, guess that just about covers it! He's really ready to go!!! I have anxiously awaited this moment and now it is finally here. So far no tears, just pure excitement for him :) We will see how the rest of the day goes, it's only 8:15!

Travis will be taking Nathan to school most mornings as it is on his way to work and he leaves right about this time of the morning anyway. Drop off and pick up should be fairly easy for us...the school staff pick him up from our car in the morning and bring him to our car when we pick him up in the afternoon.

..............UPDATE............UPDATE.............UPDATE...............

Travis just called and said Nathan did GREAT! He pulled up to the curb and Nathan jumped out of the car and ran into the gym ... no hesitation!

I will update the blog later to let everyone know how the day went, for now enjoy the pics of Nathan heading off to school!


Just returned home from picking up our big Kindergarten boy. He said he had a great day and asked if he can go back tomorrow...that's a good sign!!
