Sutton's First Day of School!

Today was Sutton's first day of preschool - yay! He seems to be coming down with a little bit of a cold, so instead of being awake at 7:00 like usual, I had to wake him up at 8:15 so that he wouldn't be late! He was really excited for school, and he didn't even seem to mind that Hattie isn't there today ("Hattie not here today. Her be here next time, okay?"). He met a new friend right away who liked his Wall-e shirt, and he did a quick lap around the play area before hopping on a tricycle and riding off like an old pro. He is the youngest there by quite a bit, but I don't think he'll mind since he's used to being with kids who are closer in age to Sawyer anyway (all of the other kids there are already 3 or just about to turn 3), but he is the only one not potty trained yet, so hopefully the older kids will be a good influence in that department. He's definitely not the smallest kid there though - the teacher asked me again how old he is, and I told her that he turned 2 at the end of April, and she said "Wow...he is one BIG boy for only being two!" If I had a quarter for every time I've heard that...LOL

I stayed with him for a little while until he got comfortable with everyone, and when I had to leave he gave me a big hug and kisses and said "See you later, Mommy!" before zooming off on his trike again. I hope he has a great day today (and that he doesn't end up getting any more sick than he was this morning - booo!)!
