Jack's in Kindergarten!

Monday was Jack's first day of Kindergarten at Houser Elementary.  Jack is very excited to be a Houser Hawk and has been talking about this day for a long time!  I still can't believe he's in Kindergarten.

We were able to walk Jack into his classroom on the first day.  From the car to the front of the school, Jack held my hand, but as soon as we walked into the school he dropped it.  I almost lost it, but held myself together.  I asked him if he remembered where his classroom was and he said "yes, follow me mom".  So I did and he went straight to his classroom, without my help.  Mrs. Holland (Jack's teacher) welcomed us at the door and showed Jack to his locker so he knows where to put his backpack everyday.  Jack was so excited about having a locker!  I picked up Jack that afternoon and he told me he loved Houser and his teacher was the best teacher in the whole entire world! 

The second day was a little harder for me then the first.  I could have walked him to his class but he wanted me to drop him off in the car line at the front of the school, like all the other kids.  I think I asked him 100 times if he remembered where his classroom was....I was so nervous.  I've never drop him off anywhere without getting out and walking him in, but he did great!  When I picked him up that afternoon he said he walked to his classroom all by himself and didn't need anyone's help.

One of Jack's favorite things about Kindergarten is that he can wear whatever he wants and doesn't have to wear a uniform.  He loves that he can wear comfy shorts and t-shirts.

I'm so happy Jack loves school!  My sweet little boy is growing up way to fast!

Last Days of Summer!

Last week was officially the last week of summer before Jack starts kindergarten and we ended it with a BANG!  Jack's last day at preschool (TWYLA) was Wednesday.  He has loved being at TWYLA!  He's made some wonderful friends and we are going to miss seeing them everyday!

Jack had Meet the Teacher on Wednesday afternoon.  Jack has Mrs. Holland and she seems really nice and Jack really liked her.  After Meet the Teacher, we headed to The Woodlands Resort for some fun!  We met three of Jack's closest friends there, Luke, Connor and Tyler.  The boys played in the pool, loved the pool slide, floated the lazy river and ended the night with s'mores.  These four boys get along so well and always have so much fun!

We had a lazy day on Thursday.  On Friday, we were invited to go to Sky Zone (indoor trampoline park) with Luke and his mom.  Luke and Jack had a blast!  They jumped for two hours straight.  Jack and I then headed to meet Daddy for lunch at Fielding's Wood Grill (Jack's new favorite restaurant).  They have the best hamburgers and milkshakes! 

Jack is very excited about kindergarten! I'm very excited as well but sad that his friends will go to different schools (except for Tyler).  These boys have made some wonderful memories and I know they will remain close and make many more memories in the future!
