Annie’s First Day of Preschool

by Brooke on August 24, 2009

Our Annie is officially a preschooler! I can hardly believe how grown up she looks in these pictures. She has been ready for a long time and was so excited for the big day–which was 2 weeks ago! (Yeah, I am behind…..)

Ooooh, we love this girl. We love her spunkiness, her smile and dimples, her curlies, her happy giggle, her snuggles, her dancing, her off-tune singing, her skipping and twirling, and even her messiness sometimes. :)

Annie got a Hello Kitty backpack and was ready to go!

Her signature giggle. :)

We made a treat for her teacher and Annie signed her name all by herself….

This is what it looks like–I made the same clear paint can filled with treats that Brandon gave to his kindergarten teacher that I’ve shown here before. The work was already done for me, so it took no time at all!
(These pics are from last year. I used the School Days kit from http://www.ggdigitaldesigns.com/).

Annie goes to preschool with 2 darling little friends in our neighborhood. Here she is posing with Elena (Eliza was out of town). So cute!!


Brandon was really proud and excited for his little sister to start school. I have no idea what face Annie is pulling in this picture! :)

I popped in just for a few minutes to see Annie get her special nametag,

hang up her backpack,
and go visit the bunny that she has been talking about all summer since registration clear back in May!!

I believe his name is Henderson. :)
Look at these little hoodlums! It was easy as that! “Bye Mom” and off she went to play. Annie loves preschool!
Now we’re gearing up for Brandon to start 1st grade on Thursday. ACK!

That is so exciting, what a fun time for your family. I want to hear more about the actual preschool because I need to start to think about it for my girls for next fall. Can't wait to see pics from your missionary's homecoming party last week.

Just found my way here blog-hopping! What a beautiful post… your daughter is adorable! And she looks so happy and excited about school!

In Norway the kids go to Kindergarden up to they are 5 and then they start 1st grade. So my little girl just had her first schoolday as well… It's a little bit strange and sad and wonderful and heartbreaking and miraculous and fun and… Well, lots of mixed emotions for mom!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Annie is so adorable… 2 years from now, I'll be able to see my son going to school and feel the excitement you are feeling right now, I'm so excited.
