The night before we went shopping, I always buy clothes on sale here and there, I never go back to school shopping and buy a ton of things at once so I take kids on a special date to pick out their first day of school outfit. Hunter and Brielle just get a ice cream date now that they have uniforms, which I love! You don't have to spend forever picking out an outfit in the morning, they can dress themselves since it's only red, blue or white :) and its saves a ton of money on clothes!
Sophie ran over to this cream fluffy skirt and squealed "Ohhhh Mom! Look it's a princess dress! I want this one!" I was shocked I would have never thought she would pick it, I couldn't say no to her she was too excited. She then wanted a pink shirt to go with it, she held on tightly to her hanger until she found the perfect cute pink shirt.
We had fun shopping and then got some ice cream and gabbed about all the fun things she would get to do at school. I can't believe she is going to preschool, she seems so little to me still. I am so excited for her to meet new friends and have fun learning.
There is something about taking each kid on their first day, they are all so different. I feel so excited for them, sad that they no longer need just me, anxious that they will be good and be treated kindly, all sorts of emotions as they open and shut that door.
To pick up and drop off the kids all the cars line up and the teachers bring them out, it was so sweet to see her so excited to tell me about her day :)

Well I think that girl did a pretty darn good job picking out her back to school outfit. That is something I would wear, cute!
I do the same I buy things here and there throughout the year so back to school shopping is never really that big of deal. A new pair of shoes, and one outfit and we are good to go. I can't even imagine how great uniforms must be, that would save so much money!
she is adorable!!
She looks so cute! I can't believe how big she is getting!
