First Day of 6th, 3rd and Pre-K

It's been a long wait, but the first day of school finally arrived! Austen's been busy walking his schedule and figuring out how to open his lock expeditiously. (I think he has it down!) Peyton was so excited to get the only male teacher in her whole elementary school (and very happy that she doesn't have a teacher that Austen had like her previous two years). Hailey is just happy to go back to school to see her friends (most of them boys).

We walked Austen close to school (and surprisingly he wanted us to) to send him off on his own into those middle school years. But he was ready. Ready to make new friends, ready to move from class to class and ready to be more independent.



Peyton was just happy. When she found out her teacher, she wished that school started that day. I have a feeling that it's going to be a really good year for her - especially since it's been long rumored that her teacher doesn't give any homework. (This will be hard for her come 4th grade when she gets a ton!)


Hailey was excited to be part of the first day pics with her siblings as usually she starts later but today they all started together. Hailey's start time for school also changed which put her going to school right in the middle of when Austen and Peyton leave which will be challenging to figure out since her school is a bit farther from our house (a good 6 minutes or so by car and across the tracks). So Tom may be taking her to school from now on while I usher off the other two. We'll figure it out and get into a routine. Routine - that's one thing that I'm glad to get back into. I do like having a plan every day and some structure to the day.



Here's to the 2018-19 school year! Hope it's a great one for all three of my kiddos!
