Noah Starts Pre-K

We have been counting down the days for a few months now to the day Noah starts pre-k and today was the day. My emotions are happy and sad! I am such a girl!!! We never just feel one thing....we feel many things all at the same time! He was unbelievably excited so that made a big difference. Also, I feel really great about the place he is at ( http://www.weatherfordschoolhouse.com/ ). It just seems like they really care about the kids and know what they are doing. He is going to learn so much!

About 11:40 today he start walking around saying, "mom I can't be late, I can't be late". Like he knows me or something!!! Then about 10 minutes later he had his backpack on, and his snack bag in his hand still telling me we can't be late. I assured him we wouldn't be but he wasn't convinced. So I set the timer and told him when it goes off we will get in the car and go. The timer went off he headed to the garage! We get in the car all buckled in...then Jason calls says he is almost home to wait so he can ride with us. So I tell Noah just a few more minutes. He is in the back seat saying, "I can't be late, we need to go!". As soon as Jason gets in the car he tells him "we can't be late, we have to go now!". It was so funny!

So we make it to The Schoolhouse and we were NOT late! Noah walks in like he is such a big boy, hangs up his backpack, puts his snack in the snack box, and gets his folder to head to class! He didn't even say bye :( just went straight to his teacher! After I yelled "bye Noah" then he turned to me with a quick bye and went straight to the activity center! He's a busy big boy now --- no time for byes!!!

My house is so quiet right now --- it's weird! I am sure when I pick him up at 3pm he will be talk, talk, talk! But you should know that I haven't cried yet not once...that will probably come next week!



Ready to Go! Walking out the door!

Come on Mom! No more pictures...let's go!!!!

Walking into The Schoolhouse!

Walking into the classroom! His teacher Mrs. Moore

Putting his folder up! Waiting on class to start!


Now, I bet you feel like you were there! I'll add some more once I pick him up!!! I know what you are thinking...yeah more pictures!! But I am just so proud of him and excited for him!! :)


We're back from school....

He had a lot of fun and is looking forward to going back all the time! I asked him what he learned and he said EVERYTHING!!! So it's official he knows it all after only one day of pre-k!!! I thought The Schoolhouse was awesome but my gracious that is incredible!!! He talked and talked about his day and his new friends. He said I am talking your head off. Then he said yep there goes your head!!! He is a nut but I am glad he had a great time and wants to go back.
At the end of the day he was all smiles!!!
The first thing he did when he got home was put on his new soccer cleats and go in the back yard! It's funny cause he was asking me today when he was going to get play soccer again. He said daddy said I was going to play a lot but I only played the one time (they've only had one practice so far). Daddy said we were going to have a game but we haven't!!! I think he is getting a little impatient with Daddy!! They practice on Monday and have games on Saturday but since yesterday was Labor day they didn't practice and they won't have their first game until September 13th so he has a little while to wait!!! So I guess he is doing his own practice in the backyard!

Wish Connor would be this excited about school with me at home ... he is about his homeschool group though so that counts for something. But, I'm glad Noah had fun - and he learned alot too - maybe he could teach me!! LOL!!! :) Glad you did good too - little proud Mommy! :)

  4. What a cutie! So what are you going to do with all that spare time you have? I know when I am down to one it's almost as if I have no children again. You'll have to find something to fill the time.
