Emalyn's First Day at Preschool

Today was a very exciting day in our house. Emalyn started preschool!!! She was very excited about it and did great. Maddi and Cade were so excited for her. Cade even told me "I'm so excited for Emma to go to preschool today. I can't wait until I get home and hear if she liked it." How sweet is that? Maddi was worried she might cry. I told her if she did, I had a lot of experience with a little girl crying when her mommy left :)

Maddi helped pick out her outfit. We decided it would be good to wear something with her name so they would know who she was. Emalyn picked out her shoes...flip flops. Better than her high heels, I guess.

Miss Em is not the most photogenic thing. She doesn't usually look at the camera or smile and when she does smile, it's pretty crazy. Oh well, we love that silly girl.





We got to school early because Emma had been asking for a while if it was time to go bye bye to school. We had to wait to go inside and then we saw Alaina and her mommy, Lynn. Alaina was adopted from China almost a year ago. She is adorable! Emma was so great at home, but at school didn't want any pictures. Apparently Alaina wasn't so great at home, but was all about the pictures at school. Cuties!

Here she is in her classroom. She did awesome! No tears, for her or from me. I'm getting to be so big in my old age. When I went to pick her up, she had her change of clothes on. They said she pooped her pants, which has never happened. Emma told me she forget to take her panties off to go potty. I've been working with her to get her to use the bathroom alone, but I guess we still need some more work :) She said she really liked school and asked when she can go back. She will go M, W, and F from 9:15-11:45. I spent my time at my yearly doctor visit and then ran to the store real quick. I think the 2 1/2 hours will go quick, but it will be good to get things done quickly without Emma having to be drug around.

We met Alaina and Lynn for lunch at Chick Fil A after school. Now she's napping, and hopefully it's a long one because school wore her out :)
