The Wheels on the Bus Go Round and Round

And we are so excited as this week is our first week back to school for the boys. Philip had his first day yesterday and Parker had his first day today!! We celebrated with special donuts for breakfast (a real treat since mommy usually just fixes cereal for everyone) and the boys put on their new school bags and off we went. We like always sang "the wheels on the bus song" all the way to school but this time Parker was a little upset to say the least. He didnt understand why he now had a bag packed to be dropped off too. So I guess you could say Parker was a little upset (the pictures speak 1000 words) about this whole new idea of school for him... afterall he is used to spending his days being spoiled with mommy so he had a little bit of a rough start. But by the time I went to get him, he was playing with all the little kids including his bff Holden and new toys and the teachers said he did great! I however was a mess (you would think that with the second one it should get easier but the waterworks just started like crazy when I left the parking lot with now not one but two empty carseats)... but thanks to some Missoni shopping at target I cheered right up!! And Philip on day 2 is starting to really like his new friends in his class... thanks to two little boys who celebrated with birthday cookies today (although we still have our occasional melt downs over being in a different class than his bff Charlie). However, today they got to play together on the playground so Philip was beyond excited to tell me all about how he and Charlie played on the scooter to the game "green light - go, red light - stop. and then the scooter broke" - oops... hope we dont have to pay for that one... that could make for an expensive school year! But then again... its so worth it because long school days mean VERY tired little boys... yay, for mommy!!!
