Jacob's First Day Of Preschool

At the beginning of the summer, Joe and I decided that we were not going to put Jacob into preschool until next year. Well...by the end of the summer we were feeling differently about that. He was ready. So...I scrambled to see if there was a spot available at the preschool I REALLY wanted him to go to and there was! They had opened up an afternoon 3's class, which actually worked out WONDERFULLY for my school schedule this term and we signed him up right away!!! On Monday, we went to his first day of school. He was soooo excited! We bought some new school clothes and shoes while we were at the Oregon Coast the week before and he was ready to go. The first day was for child AND parent, so Joe stayed home with Caleb while I went with Jacob. He loved it. Then on Wednesday he went without mommy. He was talking about it all morning and how he was going to go all by himself and how excited he was. I was skeptical that he was going to go with no tears, but that boy completely proved me wrong!!!! He gave me a kiss and hug and walked right into that room and never looked back. Mommy held it together and did not cry either. Caleb, however was the only one with tears because he wanted to go WITH him :( They are such good friends, and I wouldn't have it ANY other way!!!

Here are some pictures of Jacob's first day of school!

Not very happy about pictures...

Caleb wanted in on the action :)

When we pulled into the parking lot, I turned around and saw this. He looked a little nervous...
