First Day of Preschool

Today was Kaden's first day of Preschool. We can't believe how fast time has gone and now our little munchkin is off to new adventures. Kaden was excited to arrive at preschool and was dancing in the parking lot before going into the school.
One last pause before going through the big doors and starting a new chapter in his life....preschool.

Kaden started playing with the toys in his classroom right away. He was a little slow to join the other kids in storytime and chose to play independently for awhile. He loves pushing strollers and found a baby doll to part take in a ride.


This is one side of Kaden's classroom. Daddy was taking video while Mommy was taking pictures.



Kaden's classroom continued. One of his teachers, Miss Laura, was reading a story. His other teacher, Miss Adrianna, is not pictured.




Kaden looks to Mom and Dad for assurance during circle time.





During circle time, Kaden guessed the right object on the flashcard that Miss Laura showed them. He was very proud that he got to hold the flashcards that he recognized.....the airplane and the choo choo.






Kaden danced to the music while he was pushing a vaccum and baby stroller.







At 11:45 it was time to pick up Kaden from his first day of school. His new friends stay at school all day so they were starting to eat lunch while Kaden enjoyed a glass of milk.








Kaden is proud of his very first art project, a handsome hat. It was his first time using glue and he used LOTS of glue.

Preschool Open House

Kaden's preschool held an open house. This was the first time Kaden saw his new school. He was shy and a little unsure when he first met his teachers. We stayed for 45 minutes and Kaden played in his classroom.
Kaden did so well at the Open House that we decided to get ice cream that evening. He picked rainbow sherbet. A perfect treat before bed.

Cup or Cone, I can't decide.

Arboretum

On Sunday we went to the Arboretum. It was a beautiful day. We explored the children's gardens where they have frog ponds and streams where the kids can waddle. We also went on a tram ride that toured the Arboretum. We learned about trees, plants and bugs. Kaden really liked riding on what he called the chooo chooo.


I think I finally see a frog!

Zen


Kaden's favorite position to sleep? Belly down lotus pose. Look at how his feet are positioned!

Rainy Day

Today was a rainy summer day, but Kaden made the most of it by putting on his raincoat and playing in the rain.
