School Shopping!

Well, the dreaded time has arrived....School Shopping....People always say cherish every moment because before you know it, they'll be all grown up. How true that is! Alex isn't all grown up yet, but he's already starting school! That's a big deal to me!!!! And how quickly this has come! It honestly seems like just yesterday I was bringing him home from the hospital for the first time. Ok, I better stop before I start sobbing!

Alex LOVES scissors! I don't know if it's every kid that loves them or if it's just something that he seems to be into, but he loves to get in there and just cut things up! He even got scissor happy one day in his room and decided to give our dog a little trim!

He's also really into Globes...He loves the ones that have the "bumpy" stuff on them...He likes us to point out where Tennessee is, then we explain to him where we use to live and where we live now. He really likes them...Hmm, good gift idea for maybe Christmas...I'll have to keep that one in mind. :-)

We looked for a backpack, but they didn't have a very good selection so we're keeping our eyes open for a cuter one!

ReRe always has surprises for him, well, not always, but it would be always if he had HIS way...He's telling her that next time she comes to church, to make sure she brings this for him!

We got him a new Thermos too! How cute huh! It's a Crayola Crayon one! He was showing how you're supposed to use it.

Next it was off to the clothes section...He has to wear uniforms here so we were pretty limited on what we could buy...

Shhhh, don't tell my mom where I'm at!

He really does look cute in these uniforms though!

"Hmm, I think I look pretty good"

What do you think?

ReRe, did you take a picture of me?

Now it's time for the shoes

"Will these shoes make me jump higher?"

"That was high, but I can go higher! Look at this!"

"OH MY GOTH!! DID YOU SEE HOW HIGH I WENT!???"

The Shoes....

Here's his stuff, I forgot my shopping list that the school gave me, so I still have more to get...Quite a bit more!! I think he's got a pretty good start though.

So in 1 week and 6 days, my baby boy will be starting Kindergarten!! Oh my gosh! TRUST ME, you will be seeing some pictures of his first day of school too! Probably alot of me boohooing definitely! :*( Well, probably not, I won't post myself crying. LOL.
