School starts at 8. We left the house at 8:03. Off to a good start.
On the way Owen was sing-songing to the tune of A Spoonful of Sugar, "It's time to go to school! You're taking me to school!" I was glad he was calming MY nerves.
He chose the biggest kids backpack out there. As long as he doesn't want to wear character clothes he can have all the character backpacks he wants.
Not pictured (when we left): Owen wanting to cry but holding it in. Me not being able to hold it in as I walked away carrying Sally and holding Drew's hand.
I'm seriously such a wus and keep looking at these pictures over and over.
Is it time to pick him up yet?
He was a happy kid when I picked him up. He's excited to go back tomorrow. His favorite part of the day was the park. I asked him if it seemed long and he said he kept dreaming of me. Awwww.

He looks so big! I am sure he had a wonderful day and I know it will get easier for you.
Wow! What a monumental day! I hope he loves it!
So cute! It will get easier. I'm sure he's having a great time!
He looks so handsome!! Last year I was a nazi about NO character shirts for Pre-K...this year, for some reason I didn't care!! Go figure! Normally I hate stuff like that...backpack and lunchbox can be whatever character crap they want!! But this year, I decided not to fight that battle!! It will get easier!!
Way to go Owen! I'm sure he's going to LOVE kindergarten. And I love the song he made up...how cute!
Holy Cow! He has already started? That was fast and Kindergarten already! That's so crazy, probably more so for you. I guess it will be a nice break??:) I think I will be sad when Dallin starts.
How exciting (for him)! I hope all went well! I cried my first day of kindergarten, but I got over it real quick!
I with you on the withdrawls, I'll be taking gracie to her first day this wednesday and I'm dredding it. I'm with you on the character backpacks and not character clothes. I also let my kids pick out character pj's but that's where I draw the line.
I so know what you are feeling. I cried so bad when Wyatt went,then Kenna, now this year Bubba goes to prek and Jed turns one... All in the same month. Im a reck. Luke thinks its kinda funny I get so emotinal about it. Sorry cant spell today.
anyhow he looks great. we miss you. Bubba says HI
I cried just looking at the pictures!!! What did you do all day with just Sally and Drew? Will you be walking him every day? That will be some fun memories.
He's definitely takes the cake for being best dressed in his plaid shorts & little skate kicks' He could not get any cuter, I see a first date for Ella & Owen when they're sixteen (I didn't realize how close in age they are) Don't be scared, i'm not one of those psycho moms who sets up their 4 yr olds.......What a sad & happy day for you & Owen....Ella starts Monday, we'll see how I hold up!
i'm telling you, owen is going to get all the girls. he is so cute and i love his first day outfit! i hope he loves it! tell him i am proud of him!
Oh my gosh!! Thats crazy. Time flys. I thought he was still 4! He looks so cute in his 1st day of school outfit. I remember shopping for outfits for the first day of school.
I can't believe Owen's in School. Lilly and he are close, but she doesn't start until next year, which she's really bummed about.
Aww, he's such a sweet little boy! I can't believe how old he is already!
What a big boy. I do not look forward to those days. I have a hard enough time putting Payten to bed at night, it is all I can do to not get her back up cause I miss her so much. I hope like Owen she will miss me too!
That sounds like a bitter sweet thing. I am not looking forward to that day at all. He sure does look cute though
Oh my goodness, that is great that his first day went good! I'm so happy for you guys and to think he couldn't stand sunbeams with me :)I'm happy he had a great first day!
He kept dreaming of you!? That's about the sweetest thing ever! What a fun stage of life! I can't get over how cute his shoes are.
My baby boy Travis starts Wednesday. Wow! I think I am going to cry. On the paperwork I filled out at school it says...is there anything you want to tell the teacher about your son or daughter? I wrote ....only that he is amazing! :)
