First week of preschool

Jacob started his new preschool on Monday! He's going MWF mornings and so far, it's going good! Monday was a welcome day where mom's and dad's were able to stay with their kid to adjust to the new classroom. I went with Jacob and had a great time. We did puzzles, colored, played kitchen and lots of other fun things. Wednesday morning was the actual first day of class. He went in with no problem! I gave him a hug and kiss goodbye and off he went! We got his medical bracelet a few days before school started, as well as a new pair of Spiderman light-up sneakers - he was all set! I'm not a fan of the shoes ... I wanted to get the cute, stylish pair at Target, but Jon told me to let it go - "he's a boy"! So, I'm letting it go (even though they are ugly!). It's hard to believe that once this school year is over (on Jacob's 5th birthday), he's going to Kindergarten! The little kids were with me when I dropped Jacob off on Wednesday and when I got back in the car they kept asking - "where Jakey?" I think they asked me that about 100 times that morning - so cute! When we got home, Dylan found one of Jacob's Star Wars toys and he said - "Jakey, Star Wars". I told him to play his little heart out because Jacob wasn't here to tell him no! I think they enjoyed the alone time with mommy (and Jacob's toys!).
