Avery and Livie enjoyed a leisurely morning on the couch, having some breakfast and watching Playhouse Disney.


but before we knew it, it was time to leave for school! i had to get the signature "1st day of school" photos in for sure!



can't believe i have a 1st grader....


here is what she looked like last year on the 1st day of Kindergarten

sassy pose...




i'm sure Avery is thinking here, "I can't wait for a day without LIVIE!"




walking around school!


notice how the hall is empty? yup, we were a little behind schedule. we had to walk the whole length of the school to take her lunches to the kitchen, and then across to her room...long walk!


she HAD to stop to see Mrs. S! she promised her that on the first day of school she would come and see her!


and then, finally, to her classroom (notice how the kids are all in their desks already???)


she looks less then enthused to be there, but really, she was rather excited! (i think those ladies are classroom aides...i have yet to find out)


here she is last year at her table on the 1st day of Kindergarten...


here is Avery with Mrs. L! Even though class had kind of started, she was very willing to pose with miss Avery for a photo!

(I'm going to try to get a better one after school today!)
