Kindergarten Prep

Alexandra will start kindergarten in less than 1 week! We have been talking about school non stop and doing lots of things to get ready for school. School supply shopping, hair cut, lots of play dates with friends we won't be at school with and of course, supplementing her closet with school friendly clothes and shoes!

We received our invitation for meet the teacher so Friday Alex gets to see her actual class room for the first time, meet her teacher and hopefully see a few familiar faces in her class. Most of our friends are going to a different school than Alex, but she will have a handful of friends at her school so I'm hoping she will have at least one friend in her class. 

I can not believe my girl will be starting school Monday. I'm so excited for her but my heart aches a little every time I think about it.  I had grand plans of using this week to work on waking up early and getting Alex used to waking up before 8 so school won't be as hard next week but that plan flew out of the window. Instead we've had semi lazy mornings snuggling and enjoying our last week of summer. 

We met Alex's 4 year old teachers for lunch Monday along with a few friends from the class she won't be at school with.
