The kids' school decided to stagger the days the kindergarteners started because they thought only having a handful at a time would help them transition better. It was a good idea except that she had to wait 5 days until her second day of school. That kind of put a downer on the excitement but, I'm sure it was beneficial for everyone.
This is Cole's first day of school. He was really not all that excited, especially since Brooke didn't have to go. 
This is Brooke's first day and Cole's second day.
Brooke was a little bit nervous but so very excited to finally get to go to school. 
It's unbelievable how big they look. When did that happen?
Nathan purposely worked 3rd shift and got home just in time to be a part of Brooke's first day of school. He normally gets to work by about 6:30 am.
I think Cole was just as excited about the fact that Brooke actually had to go to school, too.
Brooke was walking ahead of all of us way before we even got in to the building. 
When I dropped some supplies off at Cole's class, Brooke started pulling Nathan down the hall to hurry to get to her class.
She barely gave me the time of day for a quick picture in the classroom. I didn't want her to cling to me, but once she didn't care at all...I kind of did.
Turns out she didn't really need me at all. We were in shock at how easily she went. Nathan had to drag me out of there and kept telling me that she was fine. We were just so darn proud of her.
Nathan went home and went to sleep until it was time to pick up the kids. I sat on the couch for I don't know how long not sure of what I was supposed to do. I couldn't even wrap my brain around the fact that they were both at school. It almost felt as if I forgot them somewhere. The time few by and suddenly it was time to wait in the ridiculous car rider line.

We took the kids to get ice cream at Maggie Moo's right after school...They both got vanilla with sprinkles.
I didn't get a phone call, she didn't cry, she didn't have an accident, she wasn't shy...She just absolutely LOVED her first day of school!

Wow...great pictures:) Have you adjusted yet? I'm so glad she did so well. Love the backpack!
I really haven't adjusted yet. I seem to sit around letting the time go by and not knowing what I should be doing. I need to hurry and figure things out soon though!
Those are some of the cutest kids, EVER! Sweet girl loved school!! Miss you, Aunt Leslie
Ummmm...did you cut her hair, it looks as long as C's...or has C's just grown out?? LC
Yes, we both got our hair cut. She needed it but asks me nearly every day if it's longer again. Mine is even shorter than hers but I really don't like it.
