cole's first day.

this morning we took cole to his first day of mother's day out at church.  we love that he got into highland's program because he is familiar with the nursery there as well as a lot of the people and kids.  he is going to be going one day a week from 9-2:30.  with him starting school (i know it's not really school but it is like baby school!), i suddenly saw the need to do a little shopping (like i really need a reason but it is nice when i have one!)  here is the backpack and lunchbox that i got for cole.  

here is cole wearing his backpack.  the pictures are a little blurry because the light was awful and he kept moving.  

here he is when he tried to move with it on....we will be growing into this backpack

going in with dad.

saying goodbye to mama (ignore the awful picture of me and focus on the cute little one)

so when i picked cole up today, his teacher told me that he was the happiest baby they had ever seen.  no surprise.  they also said, and i quote, he stole the hearts of every teacher here.  sounds like my boy.  he had so much fun there.  when he saw me he showed no excitement and continued to crawl over the the ball pit....i was at least hoping he would crawl over to me but no...the ball pit is way more fun than mama.  so, it was a successful first day.  i think that this is going to be a good situation for all of us!
