Back to School

It's that time of the year "again" even though at our house it's our first back to school! Lucas started Kindergarten today. I can't believe my little man is ready for packed lunches, carpool lines, and a homeroom teacher. Let's hope I'm ready. 

Ready with a new wardrobe of Randolph school clothes (yes, school uniforms) with shirts always buttoned all the way (he insists), a big "Schultuete" (a German tradition) filled with goodies from Oma, and his sweet smile, Lucas let us get a few shots of him this morning before heading off on his big day. 

I think little sister was a bit jealous of the pretty caterpillar cone. A few more years little one...

And even a few shots with mom and dad. I'm going to have to savor that on his way in to school this morning he still let us hold his hand! These moments are precious and I'm afraid fleeting.

And a picture with Mrs. Bernick, his new teacher.

 

                                             
Proudly showing off his name on the "K"

And little miss Haley also had her first day of "school" last week. She started preschool (or maybe the "Twos" program) at First Christian. She was also very excited and only shed a few tears when mommy left.

My two messes together. Note the upside down sign. :)

And hugs for mommy before heading off to school!

Happy new school year everyone!
