Dilan and Drake's first days of preschool

Dilan started preschool and for those of you who are not on Facebook, here are the pictures! Both kids are loving it. Dilan feels like such a big girl going to school three days a week, bringing her lunch, and being there from 9-2. At the end of the first week, she earned enough wockets in her pocket for a prize. She picked a new pencil.I am grateful Dilan loves school and she came home and wanted to do "homework." Upon practicing writing the number 2, she got frustrated and said, "I'm going to break this pencil!," all with a smile on her face while she said it. I think I'm in for a challenge when it comes to school work and Dilan but right now she is loving just coloring and drawing.
Drake's first day was exciting. He went right in, sat down and began eating his Ritz crackers that were at his seat. Lots of kids at his age are crying down the hallways and it doesn't even phase him. He has been my most adjusted kid with nursery at church and now mother's day out. Drake pointed at his class today as we dropped Dilan off and asked about it. I simply told him he was going to get to go tomorrow. He didn't get upset but is looking forward to it. He also carries his backpack everyday we drop Dilan off and he doesn't go to class himself. Drake is potty-training right now. He has the pee-thing down and it only took a few days for that and buying pull-ups. But we are working on being fully potty-trained. :)
