Ava’s first day of Preschool!!

We’re BACK!!!  I’ve decided to dive back into blogging so the next series of posts may be a little discombobulated.  I’m going to attempt to post past events from 2012 all the way up to the present and in order to not be intimidated by organizing over a year of life I’m going to just post randomly.  It may be a bit Benjamin Buttonish, with older photos of kids mixed in with the current ones, but here goes!

I thought today to be a great milestone to begin blogging again because today was Ava’s first day of official preschool!  She started a new school closer to our house called Council Oaks.  She went in today not knowing anyone but told me she made a new friend already.  She is in Ms. Michelle’s marvelous monkey class. 

On our way to school!

Ava is about to draw a self-portrait. 

I was counting down the hours until 2:00 pick-up!  Ava ran up to me and first thing she told me was that she ate her vegggies first at lunch.  Honor system now and she seemed quite proud.  Her teacher told me Ava was “a doll.” And Ava had lots to say on the way home, here are two highlights:

“ I made a new friend who lives in Texas too!  I don’t remember her name but she is really sweet and she said I could come to her house for a play date”- Ava

Best part of day : “Recess on the playground”

Ava got to do a show and tell- “All about me”  She brought her Fancy Nancy book, a cookie cutter, a little fondant flower, and a picture of Boo and Ava snuggling.

All in all, a great first day!
