The daycare kids were excited to walk Peter & Maddie to the bus stop!

The bus arrived and he happily got on. I cried like a baby watching it pull away!

 Luckily Auntie works at his school so she was able to give me updates about his first day :) She snapped a picture of Peter with his teacher, Mrs. Williams!

It was Jack's turn the next day!

He is going to a preschool called My First School, two days a week!

with Kristen



UPDATE: Both boys are loving school!!! Peter has grown leaps & bounds since starting Kindergarten and his teacher is wonderful! His favorite school day is Fridays when he gets pizza for lunch and has Phy Ed with his Auntie.. Miss Wescott :) Jack and I are still attached at the hip so we have many hugs at drop off. He has two teachers, Miss Danielle & Miss Misty. He has some great friends at school and at pick up always has a smile on his face!

Peter Starts Preschool

This Tuesday Peter started preschool at Prides Corner Nursery School. He has Mrs. Lessard, who was my neighbor for 15 years growing up, so I think it's great that he has her.

Jack wanted a picture with Peter but I knew if I let him come outside with us, he would think he got to go to school also!



Thanks for the sign idea Pinterest :)



Peter with his friends Gideon & Landon...

He was right at home in his classroom. Of course, he found a fishing pole!

He is growing up so fast :(

 

 



Big Bat Baseball

Peter got to play Big Bat baseball for the last 4 weeks. I was on facebook one day when I saw it mentioned on the WCC page. I love how they have turned the old Jr. High into a community center. Programming keeps getting better and better. I immediatley signed him up! I wasn't able to go to the first one, I blogged about it here. It was a great experience for him and when we were leaving the community center after his last practice he told me he wanted to swim in the pool. I guess I know what we are signing up for next!

Off to his first practice!

The second week I got to watch! Of course, I forgot my camera but thanks to my new iphone, I still got some good shots!

Jack liked watching his brother :)

working hard out in the field :)

The third week Slugger from the Sea Dogs went. I sent my camera with my Mom so we could get some pics, for the blog and so I could see them when they got home.

on base, he was nervous Slugger was going to come near him.

Peter and Coach Mike

Jack liked going to watch his brother and at the end he even hit the ball off the tee!

At the end, Peter warmed up a bit and gave Slugger a high five as he left!

I got to make it halfway through the last practice! At the end he got a t-shirt and two tickets to a Sea Dogs game in July!

 

Last Day of Preschool

Yesterday Peter had his last day of preschool. Did he just start? It was a family day so I got to spend the morning with him. It was so nice to have that time with him :)

No my child does not have sensory issues, he is obsessed with his "tractor pulls" right now and was convinced even though it was the last day of school, it was still a show & tell day! Even though we have told him the proper name, he still likes to call them tractor pulls because that is where he first wore them. He finally agreed to put them in his bag until school was over :)

Peter and his friend Gideon :)

We then headed down to Friendship Hall where all the classes got to watch a magic show!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this photo of Gideon(he is also one of my daycare kids)when he saw the magician pull out the bunny!!

After the magic show, All the kids got called up and recieved certificates, so cute!

Thank you for a great experience Mrs LeClair!
