This past week was Gabe's first day of preschool. Since he has a November birthday, it's the 2's and only 2 days a week. The first day was only an hour and the moms and dads stayed in the room. I will admit that I was a both teary and proud as we crossed the parking lot, hand in hand, Gabe wearing his new backpack bounding to the building. Gabe dove right in and played with all sorts of toys they had set out. He even played by himself for about 15 mins. When we left I asked him if he had fun he said "Yes, mommy was there." Wish us luck for his first full day tomorrow :)

First First Day O' School

Happy 1st day school! Mom, were you ok? =) He looks so grown up in this photo...so handsome!
Oh, Gabe looks like such a big boy!! I'll be thinking of you both tomorrow--I hope it goes great!

Great first-day-of-school outfit! Love! Congrats on the first day. Keep us posted on the second.
Sooo very cute and that backpack rocks! Hope all goes well at Day 2!!
What a big boy with his backpack and first-day-of-school outfit (which I love, btw). I'm glad day 1 went smoothly. I will definitely be thinking of you guys tomorrow during the real-deal. I'm more worried about you than Gabe. It's OK to cry the whole time (after you leave) cuz that's what I did!
Happy first day! With a backpack like that (and a mom like you), I know it will be great!
Thinking of you guys today! Hope all went well...for all of you!
Gabe is looking oh so big and positively adorable in his first day duds and backpack. Happy First Day!
I'm teary eyed just picturing it all!
Wow! He looks like such a proud big boy here. I love his backpack. I can relate to the proud lump in the throat feeling as they head off to school...they are growing up so fast. Hope things are continuing to go well.
I'm just catching up with the blogs and can't believe how much he has grown. Wow and so handsome!
Sweet little guy. I hope things just get better and better!
I can't wait to hear how the first day went! I'm sure everything went smoothly - for both of you :)
