Dallin has started preschool. It makes me sad that my baby isn't a baby anymore and getting so big. He is going Tuesdays and Thursdays in the afternoons. I was nervous he wasn't going to like it because he has been so shy lately and really didn't want to go. The night before he went, he was up late nervous/excited about his first day. I remember doing that before every first day. He was very excited to go. He said good bye and walked right in his room with all smiles.
Alyssa on the other hand was very sad on the first day. After we started walking away from his room, she started crying for Dallin. She screamed and cried the whole way home for Dallin. She did enjoy having some one on one time with Mommy, but she really misses him. They are best buds.
Here he is coming out of his classroom all smiles. Dallin LOVED his first day. They went for a walk and toured the school. Then they went outside and ran around the track. He said everyone was his friend. The first thing he asked me was if he got to go again tomorrow. He loved his second day just as much, and he learned about circles, 0's, letters in his name and how to write letters starting at the top. He got to play in a huge sandbox with boats too. I am very happy he likes school, and I hope he continues to do so. I miss him, but it makes it a little easier if he is happy.
It is a Petersen family tradition to get ice cream on the first day of school. Dallin chose cold stone (maybe with a little help from mommy) and got strawberry ice cream with sprinkles. He LOVED it :)

So fun! I think it's so cute that Alyssa was the one crying ... I bet he had so much fun! Seth started too! :)
So exciting! I'm glad he had fun at preschool! Annabelle was the same as Alyssa when Kaley started school, so sad. She did get used to it though.
Glad that Dallin's enjoying it. I bet Alyssa will adjust and start enjoying her mommy time. It's always good when they like each other and miss each other, though:)
