First Day of School

John has started a new year of preschool. This year he is in the Juniors class. He has a lot of kids in his class from last year, plus some new faces. The first day was just an hour and the parents and siblings got to stay and play to get to know the teachers, kids, and other parents. John played with his friend Nicholas (Neck-a-liss as he says it) most of the time. They put together an elaborate rail system and built trains to run on the tracks. It was a little embarrassing that Nicholas' mom and I couldn't figure out how to put the train pieces together and our 3 year olds had to show us how! The girls had a great time with a huge assortment of baby dolls and a play kitchen. They even drew pictures with Mrs. John, one of the teachers.

This picture was actually taken his 2nd day of school. A rainstorm prevented us from getting one the 1st day.

Must have been a busy day at school for John, and a busy day at the office for Rebecca. Natalie was sleeping too, but since her seat is behind me I couldn't get a picture.

The kids came with me on Sunday to check out the progress on the Extreme Makeover Home Edition house being built here. John got to wear Maw Maw's hard hat.

Fun with hats. John put his baseball cap on Rebecca...

and then wore her sunhat. He kept calling it his Jungle Hat for some unknown reason.

Natalie working on the tool bench...

and saying "CHEESE!"
