1st Grade!

So, yesterday, we went to "Meet the Teacher Night" we got to meet Alex's 1st grade teacher Mrs. Burgett. I really really like her!!! When anybody leaves out of her classroom, she says "God Bless!" Hmmm, could she be a believer? :-) I prayed for a good teacher for Alex this year, I believe with all my heart he's in her class for a reason! We'll just have to see what that reason is! :-)
So, here we are yesterday, I can't believe he actually has a desk this year!! Last year, he sat at a table with students, this year, a desk? Oh my! Isn't it so cute???

Mrs B. told us last night that they have a little friend right outside their classroom, and that little friend just had babies. It's a Groundhog! I've never actually seen one of these! This was taken from his classroom window.
We were rushing out of the house, so I had to take just a quick shot of Alex before we left!
On our way to school, and yes, you guessed it, he had to have a Transformers backpack!
Ok, so, we get to school, we are walking to class and of course, I'm snapping pictures, well, this little man has the nerve to tell me "Will you quit taking pictures mom?" Through his teeth! Like he was embarrassed or something!! Wait, excuse me? Did I just experience my first "My mom is so embarrassing" moment???
I did manage to get just a couple more pictures.

My little baby! In 1st grade already! I'm so proud he is my son! Dad wanted to be here so bad, but he was unable to because he is working out of town. But he really wanted to be with Alex on his first day of school too! Hope you enjoyed sharing our first day of 1st grade with us!

Love ya'll!

Aww he looks so big! I can't believe he's in that desk! Yes, he's about the age to start disliking pictures. Just wait until he tells you not to walk him in to class! They DO grow up!

oh yes Ang..the mom you don't have to walk me to class was very present for me this year with Kameron. He really didn't even care if I got out of the car, but I had to cause I had to walk Brooklin in. He had no choice. I only stepped foot in the classroom for one second and was only allowed 1 picture b/c all his friends were already out on the playground. It's coming.
He looks so cute at his desk. Don't you want to look at all his school stuff..I love to buy school supplies. He looks so big.
It does go really fast.
