Oh My Heck. Is it truly possible that my little Eloise started Preschool last week? Yup, she did. She really did.
Waaaaaaaaaaah! (that is totally me crying and not her…she did awesome. Clif and I expected a few tears from her but nope, she was a total rockstar).
At morning drop off she ran out of the car and up to her teachers without even batting an eye. She only looked back because I was yelling out to her so I could blow here a kiss. Her sweet teachers had her turn around and she lifted up her cute little hand and waved back to me her classic little Ellie wave, a wave like the Queen of England would do, all fingers stuck together with palm slightly bent. 🙂
Our traditional First Day of School measurements were taken. This child grew an inch and a half since her birthday in July, seriously, not even two months ago! No wonder all her tops and bottoms have been too short.
Ever since her big brother and sister started school she has been so excited to go to school too. She picked out her own backpack back in August and every morning since big kid school started she would put it on to walk down to the bus stop with Noah and Penny. Let me tell you, I almost put her on the bus more than once because of it, haha!

Oh, Ellie Bellie. You are my third child to head off to school and leave me. I hope you keep loving school, learning, singing, and playing with your new friends. Now it’s just me and Oliver a few days a week. How weird is that? I am sad my older three aren’t with me every day but I am excited to get some precious one on one time with my baby. So far it’s been so fun to see his personality when he is by himself 🙂
Thanks for stopping by today!
XOXO,

You might want to check your title to this post, unless you are trying to make her grow up even faster (I’m sure you don’t!). So cute!

My girls are not allergic to mosquito bites but I am… my arm was the size of an apple a few weeks ago because of one bite. I had to go get a shot and take antibiotics for a week. I have had about 12 bites like this since July. We are having a mosquito infestation in the small town I live in because of wetlands and no repellents work. So needless to say, I don’t get to go outside. 🙁
