Audrey's first day of preschool

Audrey's first day of preschool (3's) was a super success!  This year, Audrey has Mrs. Kim and since she's been chomping at the bit to go to school since Aiden started school last Fall, I knew she would do really well.
 After last week's hulabaloo surrounding Aiden and Declan's first days of Kindergarten, Audrey was ready for some attention directed toward her and boy did she get it!  I couldn't stop taking pictures of what a cutie she was on in her first day outfit.  :)
 Aiden was really excited for her to begin school, too, and wanted in on the picture action.  Cuties, no?
 Silly girl!  She loves to make faces at the camera!
 Gigi came over for the first day, too.  
 Obviously, #3 wished he was getting his picture taken, too.  :(
 Can you tell I'm trying not to cry?  Two off to school in two weeks was killin' me!  It's still difficult to drop each of them off and drive home with only one in my car!  Doesn't seem right that they should be growing so quickly!


 "Good morning, Mrs. Kim."  She is such a sweet teacher!  Audrey adores her.
 First stop, coloring table!

 Next up, Mrs. Kim read to us from the book "The Kissing Hand" - such a cute first day of school book!  All of the kids got a little heart from the parents to put on their name tag so they could look at it if they ever felt sad at school.
 Little wiggly feet.
 Audrey's favorite spot in the classroom so far is the "kitchen" where she set out to make food for their tea party.
 After she started playing in the kitchen, I left for the remainder of the class.  We had stayed for the first hour to get the kids settled in, but I knew she'd have no problem once the parents needed to go.  She had a blast and at the end of class, she said goodbye to the teacher, got a 'good listening' sticker, and we were off!
 So proud!

 It was a great first day!
