School Days Again???

After 9 whole weeks of summer, it was finally time to go back to school again. I was more than ready for schedules, homework, playdates, new friends and teachers and time alone with Annie. But I still cried on the very first day seeing my babies go into their classrooms and have the door shut on all of our summer memories. Letting go is so bittersweet...

This is Alexis (her school name) and her wonderful 1st grade teacher Mrs. Dober.
Gracie's classroom on the first day. She looks pretty nervous!
Hugs and pictures before school. They helped me shop for school clothes this year (for the first time ever.) And they were so excited they were up before the sun getting those cute clothes on.
Close - up from Lexi's private photo shoot.
Couldn't hold still for a picture.
Love this girl and her gorgeous blue eyes. (Not to mention her tiny white baby teeth, which are now starting to fall out at an impressive rate.)
Sarah returned to preschool with her same teachers and friends. She had to wait an extra 3 weeks (after the others started) until her 1st day. Annie was so sad to see her go and every day has to run up to Sarah for her goodbye hug. Darling.
Ready to get in on the action!
