First day of school

This last week J and A started school.  We had to go through a period of adjusting in the early part of the week to prepare them for waking up earlier than normal and getting to school on time.

The big day began with me waking up early and making pancakes.  I even work up S and D because I need them to adjust as well.  D will have to take an earlier nap to get one in between the time I pick S up from preschool and the older two up 3 hours later, so that means he has to get up earlier.  Everyone moved a little slowly in the morning. hahaa!!  but everyone also sacked out as soon as they were in bed that night.  We had spent the evening before packing back packs and laying out clothes, so the morning went smoothly.

Here are my grown up kids right outside our front door waiting to get into the van.  They are a bit stare eyed at me and the photos are a little off colored, but I have been playing with my camera settings and I forgot to change them back to easy mode.  LOL!!  So it is a little off, but they are still cute!

A smiling sweetly as she is VERY excited to start school again.

J at the school, ready to go in.

A, I think she is feeling a little hesitant.  I couldn't get her to relax and smile here.  

J, being DONE with photos and walking in.

A turning around so I could get her back pack shot.

So they both had a good day.  I am looking forward to getting to know their teachers better and helping out.
