A Day of Firsts...

Today was Bugga's FIRST day of Kindergarten. She has gotten so big! I was pretty dang sure I'd have a meltdown when we dropped her off this morning, but Pai beat me to the punch. When Lauren went into her classroom, Pai called out for her and then cried for the longest time. I couldn't get Pai to tell me what was wrong and then, when we were almost home, she said, "Mom, I'm really going to miss Lar." Pai and Lar have pretty much been inseparable since Pai was little. They are very close in age and that has helped them to become best friends. They share a room, friends, and, up until now, they've shared every day together. We will all miss Lauren. We love you, Bugga!

Even though Lauren was super nervous for her first day, she had a great time. She loved singing time, recess and her new friend, Taylor. She was really bothered by Jonathan - she said he's already gone to time-out. Jonathan was much too noisy for my studious girl!

Lauren's new Hello Kitty backpack with sequins (of course!). A must-have for this 5 year old!

Our FIRST experience with Uniforms. I have to admit, she looked dang cute, even in mandated clothing! I am a little biased though...

Lauren's FIRST homework assignment.

And, last but not least, Roo is cutting her FIRST tooth! How about Raegan's comb-over? I tend to think it's smokin'! Pai loves to "style" Roo's hair.
