My Little Birdie is Flying Out Of The Nest...

Today is Addison's first day of Pre-School. Yes, I realize summer is starting for most, but, we were lucky enough to get her in for the summer. I tried to plan ahead and do a lot of things last night, so it wouldn't be a mad house this morning trying to get everyone ready and out the door. I am not used to getting Addison ready in the mornings because John always takes the girls to the grandparents houses while I get ready for work in peace. Her lunch was packed, nap mat ready, all of my work stuff was by the door, we were all set. She woke up at her normal time of 6:00 and I went ahead and did her hair and fixed her breakfast so I could continue getting ready. Everything was running great and John got out the door for work and a few minutes after he left I kept hearing something that was sounding like a baby cooing.

A baby that should have left with him.

A baby that I hadn't planned to take to her MeMac's house.

I called John, "Uh, You forgot Claire."

"What? I didn't know I was supposed to take her with me."

"We have had this discussion many times and we agreed that I could take Addy to school if you could take Claire where she is supposed to go."

And so he turned around and picked up Claire and took her to MeMac's. (Which, by the way, today is MeMac and Poppy's anniversary, so Happy 35th Anniversary MeMac and Poppy!!!)

Anyway, on to the photo session of Addison's first day of school!

Super excited about her lunch box. I also have several more pictures of her swinging her lunch box around. Ah, how I love the attention span of a 2 year old. ( Coincidently, she told me this morning she is two half.)

The only one of her smiling AND looking at the camera

"Where is my school?"
