Daddy School and Disneyland

 Matt was able to take the Friday off of Mikaela's first week and take her to school with me.  She was very excited her daddy got to come with her.  We then surprised her and Addison and took them to Disneyland for a few hours.

Back at home it was so hot we went outside and played in the sprinklers

Day 2 of School

We got a great card with Mikaela's picture on it welcoming us to school.  We also got to see her cousin Stewart this morning.  The 1st day was so CRAZY with traffic there was not time.  

Addison's Friends at Gymboree

Today I captured a cute picture of Addison and her friends from Gymboree.

1st Day of Kindergarten

The time has come and Mikaela is going off to Kindergarten.  For the next 13 years she will be waking up to go to school and learn lots of exciting things.  Matt and I could not be happier with her and are very happy to celebrate this new beginning.  It was a bitter sweet day to see my 5 year-old walking into the classroom eager to learn.
