Mother's Day Out

Drew started Mother's Day Out today! He was all smiles until I dropped him off...then I heard the ugly cry! I stayed in the hallway while he was crying, which turned out to be good because the teacher came out to ask me some advice on how to calm him down - ha! He got over it fairly quickly and ended up having a great time. Apparently, it was such a great time that he didn't want to stop for a nap. He was the only one in the class that wouldn't lay down, which doesn't surprise me at all. They have to lay down on nap mats and sleep in the room where all the toys are. Suuuuuure. To get ready, we've been practicing at home, and I've had the same result! He won't lay on the mat. We shall see how this goes in the coming weeks.


Before MDO - this boy won't stay still for the camera, so here are some action shots.

Yup, that's one-shoe-off-driving-a-car-in-the-air-while-saying-brrrrr (car sound)!

In the car on the way to MDO - yup, again, one shoe off AND one sock off!

He looks like such a big boy with shoes on...hahaha!! I don't know how those teachers do it, but I bet they'll figure out a way to get him to nap. I never thought K would at school either, they are magic workers! Glad he had a good first day!

Whoa - way to go Drewski! He looks so big! I'm sure that he will love MDO and you will get a ton done. :-)
