Aidan's 1st. Day at Mother's Day Out

I know I'm late posting this, but, alas, I still have camera issues. The only reason I have these is because we bought a disposable camera and I had them put on a CD....so sad.

So, Aidan started King's Kids MDO on Sept. 2! He went in to the classroom and immediately started playing...of course, oblivious that Travis and I were "dropping" him off. When I picked him up that afternoon one of his teacher's said he was her "little helper" and she still calls him that, actually. You need to know, though, that Aidan will bring you things or throw away paper or do something that he thinks is nice JUST to get you to say "Thank you". I guess the kid needs some validation...ha. And I'm sure that's exactly what he was doing for her:)

The second time we took him he cried as soon as we hit the church door. So, we picked him up, took him in the classroom and my dear, sweet husband, Travis, wouldn't put him down and leave!!! I wish I had a camera with me, but he was holding onto Aidan for dear life! I had to drag him out of the classroom and he has vowed that he won't go back with me...haha. It's much harder on Travis than Aidan:) Last Thursday when I dropped Aidan off he did cry when I handed him to his teacher, but about a minute later, he had stopped. And the reason I know this is because I was hiding outside his classroom door....hehe.

His favorite part of the day (besides playing outside) is getting his hand stamped in his Bible class. Every day he talks about it...even on weekends...and can't wait to get another! And I just love the little crafts he brings home each day:) So, he seems to enjoy it and, I must say, Mommy enjoys having a little break during the week...even if it is just a few hours for only two days. Either way, I'll take it!

Here are some First Day pics!

The fam before heading out!

He was so excited he was running to his classroom! I must note that he "crashed and burned" after I took this picture...hehe. The guy you see staring at him in the pic actually said to me, "See, that's why there's no flash photography!"...HAHAHA!

He didn't eat much at lunch, so he was pretty hungry when we got home!
Here he is busting out the lunchbox.

Here are a few of his crafts and pages he colored at his first day of "school" :)
