FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!!!

Believe it or not, our 18 month old midget started school this week!! Mia attends school from 9-1 on Tues & Thurs. We were a little worried about starting her this early, but some of our friend's children that attend this school are far more socialized than other children we know... Plus, when we took her to observe a while back she hopped out of Mommy's arms, joined the other kids for play, and even tried to take a snack away from another little boy! I figure she's ready to start stealing lunch money and bullying the other children.

She did surprisingly well. She whined a bit when we were leaving, but when I peaked in the window about 90 seconds later, she was sitting on the teacher's lap giggling and reading a book with her! Luckily, there are only 6 children for 2 teachers, so she'll get lots of attention! Plus, after all the excitement she took a 3 hour nap her first day! By Thursday it was as if it was a familiar routine for her... Note her glasses in the picture. The teachers were quite amused! She loves to wear those damn things.
