A Rainy day for Preschool!

Well....Alec did GREAT today at Preschool. I got up at 6:30 am to get ready and then got Alec up at 7:45. He was soooooooo tired but he perked right up once he realized it was SCHOOL DAY. I made him breakfast, which he was too excited to eat, and then he got dressed while I got Mikayla up. I wish I would have had the camera to get a picture of Mikayla when I went in and woke her up. She GLARED at me and then SCOWLED before reaching for me. She was NOT a happy camper...and her hair was all matted to the side of her face from sleep. It was hysterical. It was about 7:50 or so when I got her up and she usually doesn't get up until 10:00 am. So it was early for her, early for mama, and early for Alec. I got baby girl dressed, threw on my sweatshirt and we were ready to go. Off we headed in the pouring rain of lovely Ohio.

Once we got there Alec did much better then I expected. He made a friend with a little boy named Owen instantly. They really hit it off and so once this happened I think Alec felt secure. I only had to hang out for about 10 minutes before he was comfortable with me leaving. I slipped out the door and waited outside in the hall to see if he was OK.....he never even noticed I left:-(

So back home to this quiet house I came. I was sad and yup...I cried. Like a weirdo...crying in my mommy-mobile van while driving home. I am sure it was quite a scene for the drivers around me to watch. HAH. It was quiet here and Mikayla laid down for a nap very shortly after we got back. I just kind of sat around the house, thought about how I should clean it, decided I didn't want to, and passed the time.

When I picked him up he was full of stories. He had a great time. They are learning to add and did a food activity with that and also had their bible story which was about how God created the World. He said they played outside for a few minutes when the rain stopped but once it started again they came back in and played inside. He made a spaceship out of blocks and a car out of Play-Dough. He had pancakes for lunch, he loved his teacher, and there was one mean boy in the class that he has decided not to talk too. LOL. Yup...that was the rundown from him. And he said it pretty much the same way I did. So I am happy, Alec is happy, Mikayla doesn't really care, and Kris thinks it's great that I have to get up early now. All in all...it was a WONDERFUL day!

Not wanting to wake up and laying on the steps...

Mom seriously...stop taking my picture!

Oh wait! I have SCHOOL today...now I am UP!

I am half awake...can you tell...look at my half-open eyes!

Do I look like a Preschooler or WHAT!?

Look at the COOL Cars bag I picked out:-) He wanted me to take a picture of it.

I'm ready mom...can we just GO!?
