Hailey's First Day of Kindergarten

Wow!  It's hard to believe Hailey has hit the big milestone of Kindergarten.  I'm sure everyone thinks this as their kids start school.  But, it really is crazy.  I am so excited for her, but it does confirm that someday she will grow up on me and I won't get to have her smiling face around every day.

Hailey started yesterday, but on Tuesday she went to get her hair cut. And by Wednesday morning she could hardly contain herself as she woke up bright and early (not a normal event for her).  She hurried and put her new outfit on.  We had the perfect pink sparkly Converse shoes, but she hasn't worn them all summer and they ended up being too small.  So the pink flip flops had to do.  We got her hair done and then she had breakfast.  Bo gave her a blessing and then they were off.  He dropped her off on the way to work.

She came home telling us all about how she got to color, cut, and listen to her teacher read a story.  She made three new friends at recess.

This morning was about the same, but there were no nerves she was just excited.  We are so excited for you Hailey and hope you continue enjoying school and making new friends.  We love you!

I SERIOUSLY can't believe that you have a kindergartener. She is a doll in her school duds! I am glad she is enjoying school so much and that you are off to a good start. How are you? You're almost finished with this pregnancy...I'm watching for news!

Emily-

Doing pretty good. Just waiting for our new addition. It will be any day now. We'll definitely let everyone know when he arrives.
