He loves school, but not new shoes!

Kevin had a work event early this morning, so I got the privilege of taking Kaiden to school. He followed me around all morning as I got ready saying things like:

"Lets go mama!"

"Mama come with me?"

"Bye bye dada!" every time he saw Kev throughout the house. He does this to me every morning usually, like ok, I know you're not taking me to school, so get going already! ha!

"I no like apple juice." after he asked for it b/c he saw me taking my vitamin with a swig.

"Other juice!" as he handed me his cup, letting me know he wanted V8 Splash instead. =)

"Hi mama!" as he looked up at me in the mirror as I did my makeup with a huge smile and a wave.

"Where mama shoes?" as I said ok, I'm ready, go give dada a kiss. He likes order, so I obliged and put on my shoes, then we went to give dada a kiss goodbye.

and his new favorite,

"Carry me?" with his arms up, looking at me with his sweet eyes, as we are getting ready to walk out the door.

I love him so so much!

And because I love him so so much and mama doesn't take him to school very often, we stopped for a special treat at Starbucks. Ok, it was really a pit stop for me b/c I didn't have time to make my coffee. However, when we got to the drive thru window,  he asked "where my choc-y milk?" I wasn't sure if they had any, but figured I'd ask b/c I love him so so much. =) They did and he was happy!!

When we got to school, he said he was done with his poptart and choc-y milk. I went around and scooped him up and brought him inside. We walked into his classroom and the kids were all eating breakfast. One kid exclaimed excitedly "hi Kaiden!" and my baby smiled real big. I handed him to his teacher and he held on really tight to me and hid his head. Under his hidden head was a grin from ear to ear. The teacher said he likes this game of pretending he doesn't want to stay..and that's a good thing! No more tears for a few weeks now!! Whoop! I put his stuff away and gave him a kiss on the cheek as I told him I loved him. He was like yeah yeah, bye already. I walked out and gazed at him through the window as he took his place with the other kids his friends. My baby is so big. He makes me so proud!

I got in the car and laughed at what I saw waiting for me. Kaiden leaves little parts of  himself all over and it makes my heart smile.

On another note, we've run into a little problem. He doesn't want to wear any new shoes! We got the ones he wears on a regular basis before his birthday. Needless to say, they are getting a bit worn. All his other ones are too small. He gets excited about new shoes, but just doesn't want to wear them. I got him this pair the other day and dada calls them superhero shoes. He loves them! He just doesn't want to wear them and pretty much goes into panic mode when we try to put them on.

Aren't they cute? Yeah, this is the third pair we've tried. I'll probably be returning them tonight. I guess I'll be trying Kevin's suggestion and getting the same ones he has. I hope they have his size. LOL. And, more importantly, I hope he wears them b/c his current shoes are starting to peel. Oh, the things you don't expect and have to overcome with a 2 year old! There's never a dull moment...=)
