2nd Day of School

Jamie was ready to head to school for his second day and wondered why I didn't want to take another photo. So, I had to take one! Poor guy, he's got to be one of the most photographed kids in the world!

1st Day of School

Jamie looks like such a big boy with his backpack...ready for his first day of school!

Jamie was so excited to start preschool. When we went last spring to register, he saw the classroom and said that he would like "going to the big boys school". He had been going to a daycare/preschool and had been experiencing frustration with the younger kids and has declared several times, "I don't like babies!" After I told him that there would only be other four-year-olds at preschool (no "babies"), he was even more thrilled.


Jamie's school is called Adams State College preschool and his teachers are Ms. Lynn and Ms. Terri. He has school Monday through Thursday mornings. One of his best friends, Parker, is in his class and another friend, Roman, is at the same preschool but is in the other class. Ashley goes to the afternoon session.

Jamie's classroom

I was expecting Jamie to be a little clingy when we dropped him of for his first day of school. He wasn't. He went in and found the table where he was supposed to sit and settled right in. He didn't seem to care if we were there or not. Guess he was ready to spread his wings a little and be a big boy.

Purple Toes!!

Shelby wanted so badly to paint Jamie's toenails and Jamie was thrilled to have his cousin spend so much time with him. Shelby put on two coats of purple AND a clear coat so Jamie will have purple toes for days (possibly weeks) to come.

Meeting Dana

We went to Greeley to visit our good friends, Scott & Addie. They had just welcomed baby Dana into their family and we were so excited to visit with them and meet her. Carl was still adjusting to his role as big brother and was thrilled to have Jamie as a playmate for a couple of days.

SLC Bees game

They were giving these away to kids but had
run out by the time we arrived. A very nice
girl sitting behind us gave hers to Jamie.

After the fireworks, they let the kids run the bases.
Jamie had a blast!
