First This...Then That...

So, this was the week of firsts for Gigi...
First, we tried soccer...
And for the most part, we liked it...
We did shed a tear or two...
But we didn't stay sad...
And we finished strong...
And that led almost directly into our next first...Gigi's first day of preschool!
We started strong the night before with freshly painted sparkly nails....
And we continued strong the next morning with our beautiful first day of school dress...
But we hit a small snag as nerves began to sneak in...
Fortunately, cuddles did the trick, and we were ready for a few more pictures...
and a few more pictures...
And maybe a few more pictures...
ok, ok, just a few more...
When the nerves snuck back in, we decided drawing a heart in the palm of her hand would make her feel better...
And she decided I needed one too, so I wouldn't forget her...
Brief Flashback:  When she was 18 months old or so, Gigi would stare longingly into Noah's preschool room and ask to go in...
Today she asked "Do I actually get to go inside?"

And after that, it was smooth sailing...
and the after school smiles were better than a thousand words...
which means a thousand pictures would be a thousand times better than that, right?!...
ok, maybe not a thousand more pictures...
but they are just so cute...
and...
hmmm...Maybe that was too many pictures after all!
