First Day of Pre-K

Well, we officially made it through our first day of preschool.  After a pancake breakfast made by Daddy, we quickly got dressed and headed out.  Cole and I both got to take him to school this morning while Carson stayed with Mimi.  On the way their he kept telling us how much he loved us which translated to us that he was a little nervous and needed some extra love.  When we arrived he headed straight to his classroom and made himself right at home.  I'm glad we made a trip up to his school this weekend to get some pics because he was in no mood to stop for photos.  Going to Pre-K is serious business. :)  
When did he get so big?!
The first words out of his mouth when he saw me where "Mommy, I didn't eat my carrots!"  He hid them in a separate container and I guess wanted to make a confession before I saw them. :)  We then had a talk that he doesn't have to eat everything.
His favorite part of his day was seeing friends on the playground, eating lunch, and going to different stations in the classroom.
We think Connor's new teacher will be a perfect fit for him.  I gave him a Back to School interview where he told me that his best friend is Ms. G.  He loves her already!
He read lots of stories and learned the rules.  Plus, he got to try out his new nap mat during rest time.    
Apparently he didn't sleep though because he was out as soon as we started heading home.  
After a nice long nap he woke up to a surprise we threw together.  He definitely had a great first day and is already excited about going back.  I think it is going to be a great year.
Oh, and what about Carson you say?  He managed just find being the only child  Throughout the day he asked for "brother" over and over, but I think he really enjoyed his alone time. :)
