Kolton's First Day of First Grade

I still can't believe Kolton is in first grade.  In fact when I went to buy his school supplies I was getting things off of the kindergarten list! Haha.  It is so weird to me to have him gone all day! It was really hard for him at first too but he has gotten used to it. 

The evening we flew back from Utah we had Back to School night where Kolton could meet his teacher, see his desk, and drop off his school supplies.  He was pretty nervous but excited.  He's so darn cute!

 His teacher's name is Mrs. Milligan.  She seems very sweet. 

 Can't forget Mr. Bentley! :)

The first day of school was Tuesday, the 18th.  We started the morning with cinnamon rolls for breakfast.  Kolton picked out his outfit the night before and had it all laid out so he didn't have to worry about it in the morning.  He looked super cute as always! :)

We got to walk to school which is great! I love being able to walk there everyday to take him and pick him up. 

 The theme for the year is "Everything is Awesome!" so they have legos and lego guys everywhere.  It is pretty neat. 

 Here is the cutie at his desk.  :) He made a few friends right away and still plays with most of them but with a few new ones added. 

 Brady was able to take a half day on the first day of school so he could come to pick him up.  He didn't tell Kolton so that he could surprise him and Kolton was so surprised! Once he saw us he started running and went right to Brady and jumped up in his arms and gave him a big hug and kiss. 

He had a great first day and enjoyed telling us all about it.  For a few days he was still sad that he didn't get to play very much (especially since they had to have indoor recess for the first two weeks of school because the sod was new and they didn't want kids running around on it) but after that he started really enjoying it.  He was super excited for P.E. but came home on the first day of it and said "P.E. was boring.  All we did is sit around and talk about ourselves and then about music." I couldn't help but laugh and pointed out to him that he was probably in music class then and not P.E.  Haha.  Since then music class has become more fun (because he doesn't expect it to be P.E.) and P.E. has become more fun now that he is actually in P.E..  :)
