Aaron's last day of school

Today was Aaron's last day of preschool in Raleigh. There is only another 2 or 3 weeks left of school, but it's now time for us to hit the road and move. He's grown quite a bit this year. 

Cute little preschool graduation ceremony that they did just for Aaron today. They will do the rest of the class on the actual last day, but were kind enough to celebrate him on his last day. He loved his school and classmates and teachers and learned a lot. He came a long way there and really blossomed into a confident student. 

With his teachers - Tiffany, Angela & Melannie.

His friends giving him farewell hugs. 

Preschool Mother's Day

Amidst the crazy of moving, Aaron's preschool class put on a nice Mother's Day program. It was very sweet, complete with kid made muffins for us. Was certainly a nice break from the hectic move and to get away from that chaos. Love this sweet little dude.

We moved out of the house on Mother's Day. A bit rough. We will miss this house. 

Aaron preschool Christmas party

Aaron's preschool class put on a cute little Christmas / holiday party for the families again this year, complete with the cuteness of 4 year olds singing a version of reindeer hokey pokey. They had crafts, games, and treats for the family. He really has a wonderful preschool class with great teachers and great kids. 

First day of 4 year old preschool

Back to school time for Aaron. 4 year old class this year. 

Last day school

Today was Aaron's last day of 3 year old preschool. Yes, he is wearing the same outfit he wore on the first day. That was intention for the comparison. You can see he has grown physically. He also came out of his shell quite a bit and his personality is really shining through. He is quite the ham. A cute, adorable and charming ham.

Mother's Day preschool style

Aaron's preschool class put on a sweet Mother's Day performance for all the moms in the class. They made muffins to share with us as a snack afterwards. They also made us little flower pots that they created out of clay and painted themselves. It was very sweet.

Aaron's birthday at school

Aaron is turning 4! I'm not sure how it's been 4 years already. He had a little celebration at preschool for his day. We brought in some fruit and cupcakes to celebrate with his school friends. They sang to him, made him a card, and he even got to blow out some candles. Happy birthday baby!

Gingerbread man

Aaron's class put on a little program for the families at Christmas time. The kids sang songs, ate some yummy snacks and made some holiday crafts. Aaron is quite a ham when it comes to performing. And he looks giant in this video. He is among the younger kids in the class.

Aaron's first day of preschool

Aaron had his first day of preschool today. He is in a class with eight other 3 year olds. The first day was very difficult for him when he realized that we had to leave him there. Apparently he cried for 15 minutes. That must have been so hard for him. Other than with babysitters or family, he's never really had to separate from us. His second day, he didn't cry. His third day he only cried for a little bit and after that, he got the idea. He knows that we always come to pick him up. And he loves his teachers and friends in class. It is really good for him to have time with his peer group since he spends most of his time with 9 year olds and the kids in the neighborhood who are mostly older than him. 

So handsome
