Cole's First Day of Kindergarten

It's official. I have a Kindergartner! Yikes! How did that happen? Cole started K in September and his teacher is Mrs. Velez. We love her and I think he is going to have a wonderful school year. We started off the first few weeks with a lot of tears and some anxiety and I should clarify that it was from Cole and not from me :-) But as we now know with him, after a few weeks of the new routine and getting to know his teachers and his classmates a little better, the tears are no longer occuring. The waking up in the morning is still rough - for ALL of us, but we are managing. He is already learning so much and I'm honestly so excited for him. Apparently he is quite the little ladies man at school, from the stories he comes home to share with us about from the one little girl that won't stop chasing him around the playground at recess and trying to kiss him. In fact, the other day when I put out his crocs (shoes), he said he needed to wear the tennis shoes so that he could run faster than her to keep his distance! And another little girl that sits next to him (Lauren, who is adorable, I may add) and whispered in his ear that she has a crush on Cole. I asked Cole what he told her when she said that and he said, "Nothing mom, I just looked at her!." Awwww Cole! Too funny! He's also playing soccer again this year and Jim is helping out as the Assistant Coach when he isn't on the road. I can't say for sure that Cole has any hopes of winning the World Cup; at this point, we'd be happy with a goal, but he is sticking with it and we are enjoying going to his games each weekend - in fact, I love it! Soccer games on Saturday - that's all part of becoming parents, right?? :-)
Dressed and ready to go!


Notice Olivia has her arm around Cole and he is trying to poke her! Ha
