Weston's First Time Going to School!

It's that time of year again...SCHOOL TIME!!! Except this time I have child going to school...I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! Weston as been eagerly anticipating the start of VPK for oh about a year now. He was even kind of disappointed that he won't be riding a school bus to school.  Most of the students started school last week but last week we went and visited his classroom and school officially started today.  Here are a few pics from last week and today...

 

 He looks thrilled doesn't he??  This was actually last week at open house and he is not happy because it was so hot outside...plus he didn't take a nap like Mommy suggested so he is pretty tired.

Trying out his cubby for the first time.

"I have a seahorse above my name Mom!"

 Checking out the stuff in the room with sister.  Notice Savannah brought her backpack along too.  She was quite jealous that Weston was starting school and not her.

Nothing like a good old fashion incentive chart...EAGLE BUCKS BABY!!

Snapped this one quickly before someone was about to walk in the frame...I didn't want to leave it out.  This kid loves science.  

We laid out his school clothes the night before...excuse the scuff marks.

 Weston got up and got ready all by himself...then he woke up Mommy and Daddy.  The alarm clock didn't go off...OOPS!!!  Thank goodness our 4 year old is responsible.

Weston drew a picture for his teacher of his family.  I think that's me he is pointing to and the baby is floating above everyone...ya the kid is a genius.

 Savannah drew a picture too!

"Mom get a picture of my backpack!"

Walking in on the big day.

a little bit...

of sibling...

love.

"I see my class....I'm ok!"

Putting his backpack in it's final destination for the week.

 He found his seat with his name on it.

Weston's friend...the teacher had a good idea of giving them play-dough to entertain them while they were waiting.

Bye, bye for a couple of hours!

It's ok Mom!

Boy did I need that...not until we were out of Weston's sight.  Weston's teacher packed some tissues, Hershey kisses and a cute magnet for the fridge with her phone number on it.  I am so proud of Weston for being such a big boy and being so eager to want to learn.  He is looking forward to learning all sorts of things at school this year and we are looking forward to hearing all about it!
