Back to School!

 

As you can tell from the pictures, I let the boys pick out what they wanted to wear for the first day of school because it wasn't worth it to get in an argument over something so little as looking their best for the first day of school!  Jonas was excited and raring to go with his new Superman backpack!  Joshua on the other hand, must have been feeling the after affects of his first hiking trip because he was a bit grumpy and impatient with his mom taking pictures and all.  I love that Joshua saved his new shoes all summer so he could have nice clean shoes to wear to school, now both boys have their separate play shoes and school shoes!  When I went to drop them off at school I was planning on parking and walking them into their classrooms to make sure they remembered where they were, but there were absolutely no parking spots available. So, I dropped them at the curb, told them their room numbers, and told them to ask an adult if they got lost!  As I was leaving the parking lot, I saw a parking space, so I parked and hurried inside to catch the boys.  When I got to Jonas' classroom there was no Jonas!! Heading back into the hallway I saw Joshua being helped to his room by an adult and asked where Jonas was.  Joshua said, "oh, somewhere down the hall.  he didn't want to follow me." :(  So I went to find my lost child and saw him just at the other end of the hall with someone helping him.  My boys probably thought I was the worst mom to do this to them!  Anyway, we got the boys to there classrooms and told there teachers who would be picking them up at the end of the day.  Nathaniel and I went to pick them up and ended up waiting forever for them hoping they hadn't got lost or were in the wrong spot, but they had both been let out late.  Just before leaving the parking lot, Joshua remembered he had forgotten his lunchbox, so it was back to his classroom to get it.  Needless to say it was a confusing first day for them.  It got better the next few days though. :)
