The first days of school

So we survived the first days of school for both AJ and Cooper. AJ as usual didn't need me at all (well other than to drive him.) He knew which classroom was his and was done with me from the time we left the house. Cooper was a little more clingy, well to AJ at least. Cooper's drop off time and AJ's pick up time is the same so AJ helped us drop off Cooper in his new classroom and Cooper first asked if I would stay with him, when I said no, he said well than AJ can stay with me! AJ gave Cooper a hug and kissed his hand (something he just learned in school) and said "Have fun Cooper we will be back later for you!" And Cooper was fine with that, he blew me "a thousand kisses" and off we went. I love how close my boys are, really without AJ being there today it could have been very bad. Looking good!
Walking to the truck. The back pack just about toppled him over it is so big!

Riding to school, say "Cheese!"

Hanging up his backpack in his cubby.

Blowing mommy a thousand kisses.

AJ waiting for Cooper to come out of school. (Check out the blue tennis shoes, we had to search 4 shoe stores to find "blue his favorite color!!"

Wahoo! He survived and came out with a big smile and a project already.

He was so proud of his project.

He is ready with his full backpack.

Such a handsome boy!

Oh my gosh! Look at them (well, I know you do all the time, but . . .) they are so grown up and handsome. It's hard to believe Cooper's in preschool! What a wonderful first day for everyone, and I hope mom was okay too:)

Holy cow, your boys are getting so grown up! I love that Cooper's backpack is almost as big as he is. Glad the back-to-school transition went well. Sounds like all three of you were very brave about it!!! :)
