First Couple Days of Preschool

Filed Under: Family Tagged With: back to school, dustyn, preschool

{Warning Picture Overload. At least I put them into collages so there isn’t sooo many to scroll through}

Here we are making Dustyn’s favorite breakfast. Monster truck pancakes and turkey bacon. You see the monster truck that Kenny cut out for Dustyn in that last photo?

Dustyn showing me his monster truck pancake. He loved it. Yes we do encourage playing with your food. ha ha.

Carsyn eating some pancake.

Dustyn’s clothes. I took a picture with the tags on it so I would know that he is wearing mainly 3T and a little bit of 4T. He is a flip flop kind of guy. Last one was him waiting patiently for us.

Love his eyes in this shot.

His school, some more pictures of him with the sign, on the way to his school and coming home from school. He did good at school while we were in the parent meeting. He cried for a minute when we first walked away but was fine the rest of the time.

 Here he is on the second day, which was an official day. We have worked it out where Kenny takes him to preschool and I pick him up. Thankfully it is right on the way to Kenny’s work. That makes it easier for me so that I don’t have to make 2 trips out. Saves gas and time. Thank you baby.

Dustyn was soooo excited this morning to go to school. He kept asking if it was time to go yet. It was so cute. He wanted to go in Daddys’ Truck. I was going to take him this morning but he wanted to ride with Daddy. When he pulled away I bawled my eyes out.

Kenny said he did good when he dropped him off. He didn’t shed a tear. He said, “Bye Dad, see you later.” Kenny had to make him give him a hug goodbye. He he! He is growing up too fast. I am so glad he is doing good. It is going much smoother then I thought it was going to go. I think he really enjoys it. They do show-n-tell every Wednesday. He took a monster truck and his pictures that he keeps in his wallet. I will have to take a picture of that one day and show you all. He LOVES it.
