Alexis first day of 3rd grade was on Wednesday. She wasn't happy that summer was over and she had to start "learning" again, but when the day got here, she got all dolled up and was super excited to be there. She loves seeing her friends and after three days of third grade, her self-professed favorite subjects include recess, lunch, and P.E... Here are some pics of the first day of school.
Lex with her hair all curled... I learned that curls don't stay that well in soggy weather though. By the time we had walked the few blocks it took to get to school they were gone..
Lex' 3rd grade teacher - she seems so nice!
For not being very happy about returning to school, she was all smiles once the day arrived... Someone else took the pictures below and before she took them she asked if Lex would be okay with taking the picture (as opposed to being embarrassed). I said, she would love it... she was pretty excited for the first day.
I took the day off so I could walk her to school and walk her home. She also asked if I'd go to lunch... my response was, "On the first day of school, are you sure???" but she did so I returned for lunch and recess. That night we got together with a few of her girlfriends (and moms) for dinner and Coldstone. She had a pretty happy first day...
