Excuse me while I post way more pictures/details than necessary of Owen on his first day of preschool! Let's just say I was feeling a little more verklempt than I had aniticpated about him being big enough to go to preschool and I just loved how excited he was to pose.
Owen woke up that morning and was lazily laying on the couch. All of the sudden he sprung up and shouted with more excitement than I thought possible-
It's my first day of preschool!
Then he ran around getting ready like a crazy person.
And this little picture could be why I got all teary in the first place!
Could he be cuter? No need to answer. I already know.

Showing off his muscles.
Because everyone knows "you have to have big, strong muscles like me to go to school, Mom."
He was so excited to get "school shoes" and then he was checking out his hair to make sure the wind didn't mess it up.
And off to school we go!!
Oh wait. It doesn't start for another 45 minutes.
Oh, and we're driving, not riding scooters.
Aaand you're going the wrong way, dude. Preschool's the other way.
He's been trying tto write his name but the "e" and "n" were giving him trouble.
While he waited to leave for school he did it!
I love, love, love how he wrote that.
And more waiting.
He said "Mom, you don't need to come in. Just drop me off and drive away."
Ouch. That was unnecessary.
I talked him into letting me just walk him up and of course snuck in some pics.
Little turkey. He's not supossed to be quite that independent yet.
Eager to unload his backpack and get down to business.
My cue to leave.
I think the anticiaption and excitement "used up all of my energies"
He took a 2 1/2 hour nap.
Sweet.

seriously, i can't handle how big your kids are getting without me seeing them. he just cracks me up. i love the picture of him making sure his hair wasn't messed up! he is going to love preschool, i am just not sure if the teachers can handle his talking. i am sad that he is so big.
I am worn out just reading about his first day of preshool. He IS your child. You loved preschool and you acted the same way. Ethan, on the other hand, quit preschool after one day. And we could not get him to go back, no matter what we did. Enjoy your few hours alone with Max for a while.
you're a bloggin fool. Really, is there a cuter kid than Owen besides you know him and you know her? and you know him? okay, I'm tired and going to bed now. Cute post
This teacher is very much anticipating hearing what Owen has to say this year. I mean really, who isn't? From what I hear, he isn't the only one who ended up taking a nap that day. Too much excitement!
Rachel,those are the cutest pictures ever! Your family is growing up so fast. We were really excited to hear about your girl. We like to peek in on your family occasionally and see what you are doing. We started a blog too. Our address is www.rscluff8.blospot.com.
What a cutie pie! I can't believe how big Owen is--time flies. :)
I want to steal him away. . .at least for 2 weeks. He's made me smile for years and I adore him. If he's ever missing, you may want to check my house, especially if I needed to borrow some joy on that particular day!!!
