Back to School


I can't believe that our little girl is so grown up. Yesterday was Brooklyn's first official day of school as she started kindergarten. This is the first time that she has gone somewhere for school, as she did preschool at home with Chelsea last year. I was anxious to see how she would handle it, but she acted so adult like and just walked right into school like she didn't even care she was leaving us. It was so fun to see her so excited to get dressed up for the first day, and have her hair just right (such a girl)! I even got to take the afternoon off of work and was able to walk her to school with Chelsea and the kids.
Unfortunately we are in transition right now with homes, we are staying at my parent's house, and so Brooklyn will have to switch schools probably about the time that she is starting to make friends in her class. Chelsea and I struggled with the decision of what to do as far as where to send her for school, but when push came to shove we decided that kids are incredibly adaptable and she would probably do fine no matter what we decided.
Here are a couple more pictures of our mini adult!

She looks HUGE! When did this happen? Did she have a good 5th birthday. We have been horrible this summer about remembering birthdays so tell her we are sorry and that it's Jason's fault :)

The first day of kindergarten!? Already!? She's adorable and as social as she is, I'm sure she'll make the transition to a new school just fine. How did Cade do without his "Brookie?"

Is she really old enough to go to school? She looks so cute, just like her mom! Geez, this is really making me miss you guys. It doesn't seem that long ago that we were there when Brooklyn was born. She can't be that old! Time flies!
