Dallin Starts School!!!

It's official, Dallin is in school. This morning I was woken up at a little before 7:00, with Dallin at my bedside asking me if I could cut off the tags of his new school shirt. He had laid out his whole outfit the night before. He was ready, but school didn't start until 9:15. He was nervous about eating breakfast because he didnt' want to be late. I had to show him how long we really had until we had to go. Cute boy. Here he is in his new school clothes with the traditional picture in front of the door. We all got ready to go because we live so close to the school that Dallin will either walk or I will drive him to school. Today we put even in the stroller and walked him up for his exciting day. Evan was already in the stroller when I decided I wanted a picture of all 3 of them, so taking him out of the stroller did not make him happy.
On a side note, I got Kenna some new curlers and absolutely love them. She sleeps in them and I literally pulled them out this morning and pulled up the top. So cute.
I had to get a happy picture of Evan, so we came to him in the stoller.
Dallin walking up to the school. We could barely keep up with him he was so excited. He picked out his book bag and everything. He just looks so little.Standing outside of his school getting ready to go in.
Dallin and his #1 supporter. She was so excited for him. I LOVE this picture.
Evan wasn't sure where Dallin was going, but was just excited to be able to go on a walk.
As soon as Mrs. Riggs opened the door, Dallin was ready and didn't look back once. His little blond head and blue shirt kind of stick out in the sea of kindergartners.
Me, being the nerdy parent, went to the window and looked through to see where he sat down. His back was toward me, but he turned around and saw me. I thought he might be embarressed, but he just smiled really big and waved. I blew him a kiss and he returned it. I thought I need to take advantage of this time that he's not embarressed by his mother, I have a feeling it will end soon. I peeked in the back door before his classed started and got a little picture of him sitting at his table.
This is him after school coming out with his "School is Cool" hat that he made and cut out and colored himself. He was searching for me and he just lit up when he saw me. I asked him what he did today and he said "I had a lot of Fun". I'm so happy he loved it and can't wait to go back tomorrow.
Since Daddy has to work late tonight, we decided to meet him for a special lunch. Ever since Dallin learned that there was a restaurant named like his Mommy AND Daddy, he has wanted to go to Denny's. We let him choose on his special day, so Denny's it was.

So happy you loved it and I hope you will always love school as much as you did today.!!!!
