First day of preschool!

Today my sweet babies went to mothers day out and preschool. Last night we had to do some "homework" for their classes. We had to get some pictures of the girls, family, our house etc and glue them on a paper and house that we decorated. It was super fun and very cute. I found a picture of Saige with baby Abby so I printed that out for her. She was SO excited when she saw the picture. When I cut the picture and put glue on it she flipped out. She started shaking her head no and said DON'T! LOL! It was so funny that she didn't understand what we were doing.

This morning when Reese woke up we asked her if she was ready for school and she said YES and was jumping off the walls all morning. Saige snuggled up with her daddy this morning and told me "no thank you" when I asked her the same question. Uh oh!

We got them dressed (matching of course), backpacks ready and off we went. We dropped Reese off first so Saige could see that it wasn't a big deal. Reese's teacher met all the parents at the door and I could tell she didn't want us in the room. Saige then walked down the hall, which is sort of a big deal since she likes to be carried like a baby EVERYWHERE, but when we got to her room things changed. Aaron took her hand and tried to walk her in to her room and she stomped her foot and screamed a LOUD NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and tried to hide behind me. I picked her up and took her inside and showed her the room. She was a tiny bit teary eyed but went straight to her teacher and was fine.

I came home to a very very quiet house. I would like to say I missed them like crazy but to be honest the break was really nice. I was able to clean without feeling bad about not playing with the girls. I was able to do laundry without it being knocked over. I was able to WATCH tv for a while and I talked on the phone.

I was happy to see my babies at 1:00 though. Their teachers said they had a great day. Reese's teacher said she talked nonstop!!! I was so happy to hear that. She didn't speak one single word for over a month in her class last year. Her teacher said she told lots of stories. That scares me a little LOL!!

Saiges teacher said she was a "rock". She said she didn't cry one bit and that she played with the babies all day. She said Saige changed her diapers, fed her babies, rocked her babies. Thats my sweet Saige! She LOVES a baby!

The girls said they loved their school and want to go back. THey seemed very happy and I am so glad they are going. I really think preschool is wonderful!
Here's to a great school year!
