Chelsea's First Day

Today was Chelsea's first day of preschool at J.A. Taylor, and she was so excited to be going to school like her big brother.

Striking a pose in her new school clothes-- she insisted on taking this cute little tote bag that Uncle Matt gave her instead of carrying her backpack.  How cute is that?

In front of her classroom

And I just had to get a picture of this sad little girl as we were walking out.  As much as these two sisters tease each other and fight over toys, they really hate to be apart...

Chelsea was really happy to discover that her good friend (and neighbor) Jacob was in her class.  She was so excited to go in that she barely even said good-bye!  Siena, on the other hand, was missing her sister, and while she and I were running errands she kept asking "Now can we pick up Chelsea?"  But I have to say, running errands with just one child is so much faster and easier than having all three of them with me!

Try running around with none! I tried it for the first time today. A little odd, I might say...

Let's get the girls together.

Chelsea's outfit is the cutest thing I've ever seen! She's so grown up, I can't believe it.

How fun that she has a friend in the class. And she will make more new friends. How fun, and how adorable she is. Hopefully cute Siena will learn to enjoy her "mommy time".
