1st day of school & backyard fun...

On Friday, we rushed over to meet Reese's new teachers for Open house (we literally ditched the 10 people at my house all working like slaves for Reese's party...) and really enjoyed it! Saturday, was her party and it was so much fun (I'll have pics up this week!). She keeps thanking me for "such a wonderful party, mama." Such a sweet girl, that Reese. Today, was her first day of 3 year preschool. I was a little worried as to how it would go but she was super excited. We pulled into the parking lot and she sees all the kids heading inside and says to me, "Maybe I should just stay home with you today, mama." (can you hear my heartbreaking?) I said, "Well, we're already here, why not trying it out." Otay, mama.
This is the only sucky picture I got, so I'll have to try again tomorrow. She was so good. She looked for her name on her box & found it right away, sat down and started coloring. She even waved bye to me. They put the little boy that I swear, never spoke all year last year next to her, think that was for a reason??? I'm thinking he's gonna learn the words, "shush Reese" really quick like.

I picked her and asked what she learned. She said "nothing." Awesome. Then she said they talked about got and the teacher said "Be Quiet." I'm thinking that much is TRUE. I'm deep in some editing, but here's a few from last week while my mom and Scott (aka the best friend ever) built her playground. Nice of me & Reese to watch while we licked our popsicles...

This is my favorite little smile...

Drama queen...

She's a laugher all day long...

And my sweet little angel face...

And one of my favorite little guy...penn...

We've had everyone here all weekend and really miss D, Boo, Penn & Papa already! I'm sure we'll all be together in the next week! Hope tomorrow is as good as today for school!
