First week at school

Ethan started nursery on Tuesday. Thankfully Hayd was able to have the time off to see him go to school. The morning was pretty stressful as Eth decided he wanted to have a lay in and with so much to get ready it was inconvenient. Luckily because he was so excited to go to school when I went in to wake him up he was in a happy mood. 

Breakfast was a faff. All eth wanted to do was watch cartoons and he forgot about his breakfast. After much persuasion he eventually ate it. 

About a week before we had a meltdown as Eth said he hated his uniform because it is red and he wanted a blue one. How do you explain to a 3 year old that isn't going to happen. He did relax about it and now is very proud to wear his uniform. 

The walk to school went much better than expected. We were early but because it was the first day of term the school was packed. I didn't go into the school with him once they had lined up because it was too crowded and I had Helana in the pushchair. 

When Hayd came out after settling Eth in he said that he felt like crying. This was the first time he's ever said anything like this. I on the other hand was ok. I know that Ethan is ready for more challenges and needs time away from me. 

We picked him up just before dinner as he only does mornings and he came out so happy and with a sticker. (He's come home with a sticker each day) However he didn't tell us anything he's done apart from the Wednesday as they had a welly whanging day which he seemed to really enjoy. 

He really seems to enjoy his time at school and even woke us up this morning at 5am to go to school. Just a shame it's Saturday!
