My baby girl has started Kindergarten!! There were a lot of tears at first (from her mama) and some adjustments to be made - but, she is absolutely loving it and having fun making new friends!! I still can not believe it - but, I am so happy to be 2 weeks in and through the transition! :)
When we got back from the beach, Ali went to 2 days of Kinder-camp at West Side and ran into some of her best buds from preschool walking in!
We did lots of fun things leading up to Kindergarten to enjoy our time together and get ready for this big step! Ali's favorite (and mine!) was definitely a little painting class we went to together - just the two of us. She was in Heaven and I was so proud of my little artist!:) Our morning was definitely one I will always treasure!!
We were excited to do the "Kindergarten Kruise" on the bus - just a little test ride on the bus route with all of Ali's little Kindergarten buddies that also are on our bus. It is a cute little route and stops at lots of our friends houses...and we had such a fun little morning on the ride. It was funny b/c this family of snoozers has been in for a wake-up call with the early start time of Kindergarten. When we got to the bus stop that morning at 7:25 am, Ali was creeped out by how quiet it was and said "It's so weird being out in the middle of the night!!" ha!
Sister wants to go to Kindergarten with Ali SOOOO bad!
Blurry family photo (minus the photographer!)
On the bus and soo excited!
Giggles the whole way! (Might have had to do with the 3 cute boys in the seat in front of us!)
Love this group!
Sneak a peek at school with our new friend, Trinity!
So excited to find Libby in the cafeteria!
Outside of her new classroom!
With Ali's new teacher, Ms. Oliveri! (Again, Rhodes thinks she is going to Kindergarten!)
Rise and shine...it's time for Kindergarten!!!
So excited!!!
I cried the entire way out of the school...leaving that sweet face behind...but she LOVED it! I am so proud of her. I could not wait for 3:15 to roll around and to see her smile! Of course...this is where we sat for about 20 minutes in anticipation....and where we sit most days!! I love our new house and everything about it...but, every day around 3:00, I start missing our old house! That walk to and from school sure would be nice! :)
We got our girl and she had a great day!!!
We met up with some friends at Rita's after school to celebrate our first day!
First time officially at the bus stop - we didn't end up riding it in the end - but she sure looked cute! :)
I feel like Ali has already grown up and become more independent just in her first 12 days! So glad to be at such a wonderful school and looking forward to a great year!!
