Well, my little Cate is off to school! On Thursday, she began her school journey into the Leaps and Bounds (2 year olds) program at our parish school. She looked like she grew up before my very eyes as I dressed her in her little dress and Mary Jane shoes. She was so proud of her lunch box and backpack and once she put them on, she didn't want to take them off to sit in her carseat.
We met Matt up at the school so he could see her into her first day! Her little friend, Elizabeth (younger sister to Max's best friend, Matthew) and her parents got there around the same time, so we got a few pictures of the two girls together. They giggled with anticipation.
She walked right in and was so excited, she forgot to "get her spot" (part of the morning routine where they find the spot with their picture and put it up on the bulletin board). So, after we ran after her in the classroom to come back out to put away her bag and lunchbox, she got her spot.
Once in the classroom, she started off with her first project of the day and happily said good-bye.
She had a great day and I am so proud of my little pumpkin!

What a sweetheart she is - I know y'all are both so proud of her!
My mom took "first day of school pics" of me and my sister every single day until we graduated from high school and I did for my daughter and my sister still does it for my niece - it is one of those traditions in our family and a great way to treasure some of those "firsts" that you can never re-capture again!
She looks so cute in that first pic you have posted!
Have a good week -
Awww so sweet.
So cute! She looked like she owned the place. How great that she was so excited and no tears. Did you have some tears? What a a big moment.
Her school looks adorable! And Hailey did that with her backpack last year (the car seat thing) cracked me up (almost as much as it frustrated me)
OMGoodness that is SO stinkin' adorable. And really...I tear up just THINKING about sending mine off to school...and it may even be two years out!! LOL.
She is toocute and I'm glad the first day was so successful!
Oh, Allison! She is super cute --love the pigtails!
