First things first…
*~*~* Happy Birthday to my Mom *~*~*
So, they BOTH started school yesterday. I’ll post more about their days later on in the week, but I thought I would share some photos. The above is them getting ready to leave.
See Cassie’s outfit? I picked it out. The shoes are even Hello Kitty. I bought it while I was out with a friend of mine hoping she would like it and agree to wear it. Amazingly enough, she did! We found the shoes at Target and I HAD to buy them. She looks so cute! Jamie is wearing skull and crossbones. They are even embroidered into his shorts. Heh. He’s so cool. Way too cool to pose for pictures and even MORE too cool to give me a hug when other people can see.
We drove over to the school and walked them in. I stuck around for about 2 minutes to make sure Cassie got sat down and I got to give her a kiss. No tears from her (or anyone else, myself included – I dunno, I’ll miss her, of course, but it’s not like I’ll never see her again. She’s like 2 minute away!). I tried to put my arm around Jamie as we walked to his classroom next, but he looked at me horrified so I kind of patted his shoulder as he walked in, but first I made sure that no one was looking because well – MO-OM, it’s embarrassing, donchaknow.
Then, Tom and I celebrated by taking ourselves out to breakfast – and NOT ordering chocolate chip pancakes that no one would actually eat anyway.
Okay, I cheated. I took a picture while they were at school. Actually, I didn’t, they were GOING TO school. Jamie saw me grab the phone and slipped behind me though…
I thought this was so sweet. Tom saw that the pony’s tale was getting matted on Cassie’s backpack. Instead of leaving it alone or just cutting it off (umm, not that I would do that), he brushed it out and braided it. LOL.
So, I’m free. I get to work for ~7 hours without having to stop to entertain a kid. Wow.
.
Just talk to your mom when she calls and bugs ya. hehehe
The kids look great. So girlie and boyish.
Ok, i dont know what to comment on first. The fact that Cassie’s Hello Kitty is awesome, and hip. Or the fact that I think Tyler has apair of shorts very very similiar to what Jamie has on. Oh and the shirt..ROCKS!
OR the fact that Tom braided her pony’s tail. awwwwwwww What a guy.
I would of cut it off or bought a new backpack. ROFL!!!!!!!!!!
Ok seriously Tom – you ROCK!!! GREAT job Dad!! That was awesome!
I can’t believe how grown up they look!!!
If it makes you feel better, Mason wouldn’t kiss me either. It made me laugh!!!
Awwww….so precious. Evan likes to dress up in “fancy” shirts with collars, so that’s what he wore for first day, but the skulls made it in on the third day. He loves those too.
Victoria loves Cassie’s backpack. She kept saying pretty horsie.
