Another First

It was a week of firsts in our house this week. Isabel started her educational career. Well, if you consider preschool a part of that, that is (and I do!).

Isabel was so excited to go to school. The last two years she has been with me as we took Caleb to preschool and picked him up. It was a frequent struggle to get her out of the classroom after dropping Caleb off, but now it's her turn! She gets to stay and play, and learn, and sing songs, and go to the playground! Although, I must admit that I think she was more excited about having her own bucket than actually going to school.

Here are a few pics of my baby going off to school for the very first time.

in the truck, on our way!

she got to put her little name on the door (it's how they do attendance, I think) but isn't it cute?!

Isabel and her school friends! (oh, and their cute buckets!)

Isn't Isabel cute with her little pig tails and big ol' bucket? *sigh* It makes me kinda sad....my baby is off to school!!! Although, I'm not sad enough to have another! In fact, having Isabel in school twice a week for a couple hours gives me a little free time. And this is term that I'm not too familar with. FREE TIME???

Oh yes, FREE TIME!!! My first morning 'off' I got together with another mom and we went to Starbucks and got a yummy (something that we didn't have to share with anyone or here whining while taking our sipping). Then we strolled through Target. Again, not something a stay at home mom is able to do too often. So, did I enjoy my FREE TIME....oh yes! I have a feeling that I'll enjoy this school year quite a bit!
