1st Day of School!

I can't believe I actually took my kid to pre-school today for the 1st time (she's going just 2 mornings a week)! She has been excited for so long about starting school. I was surprised how much I missed her while she was gone....and how preoccupied I was wondering how she was liking it. She did well, when I came in to get her the first thing she said to me, "I'm hungry and tired." Maybe she'll start napping again since pre-school is such a work out!

Hatcher got some amazing news that UC Irvine (it's like 2 blocks away from Disneyland) got him a spot in their orthopedic rotation for a month. He heard on Friday and canceled his plans to go to U of AZ and is leaving for Irvine on Saturday!! We'll be meeting up with him before he leaves so we can have a little vacation before he starts at the U of U. He's been working so hard! I can't remember the last time he was home when Chick woke up. We're going to miss him sooo much, even with our stunt we pulled with him moving out to DC (when Chick was born) we've never been apart for more than 2 weeks!

Another piece of exciting news is that Hatcher's little brother moved to DC for an internship. He'll be here all Fall (sadly, we won't) but we're having a ton of fun having family so close by. Chick has LOVED having her uncle close by...but I think me & Hatcher are loving it even more.

Anyways, here's Chick's 1st Day of School EVER pics!!!!!

She is so cute!! School does wear them out! Maybe she will nap for you now!
By the way.. the shorts u asked about I found them at gymboree outlet and oshkosh outlets. Long shorts are hard to find!!!

Preschool, already??? I swear we all just moved out her like a month ago and Vanessa was just a teeny tiny baby!

I can't believe how grown up she is now and how cute she is in those pictures!!!

I hope she starts napping again, for your sanity! I can't believe you won't be here this fall:( Chick's pictures are so cute, I can't wait to hear all about her school!
