Last month of school

A few weeks ago Andrew had his last share day at school. He loves his special day and it always makes getting up early and out the door for school so much easier. He brought his huge cement truck which he calls his "incement" to show his friends. He was really excited about it.
Leading everyone in the Pledge Allegiance.
I know this picture is blurry, but it's the only one I had of him with his truck.

The next week he had his 1st school music performance. It just happened to land on Nate's 30th birthday. It was pretty adorable though. Andrew had been practicing his songs at home all the time. Here is him singing one of the songs:

I love that he is singing a song that I used to sing when I was little.
When I showed this to his teacher, she cried. She thought it was the sweetest thing :)

At his actual performance he barely sang at all. He stood up there, did a few of the motions, but for the most part barely moved his lips. I think he was a little overwhelmed by all of the kids (it was his class as well as 2 preschool 4 classes and 3 kindergarden classes), it being dark so he couldn't see the audience and the huge audience. He did see me at one point during the performance and waved and perked up a bit.
This is how he looked for most of the performance...hands crossed and a sober face.
He did do a few of the motions :)

His last day of school was last Thursday, June 2nd. We spent the morning at the park with all of his classmates and teachers. Unfortunately it was freezing out and sprinkled a bit. Andrew still had a ton of fun and ran around playing chase with the boys, playing in the sand, and splashing in the puddles.
Andrew with his teacher Mrs. Shearer in his classroom and his other teacher Mrs. Jensen at the park. He made both of them cards and was really excited to give them to them.

After school, Nate and I took him to lunch, just the 3 of us. Ava stayed at my mom's...we wanted to make it a special day for Andrew. We told him he could pick where he wanted to eat and he said "poltle" which mean Chipotle. When we went there the line was out the door so we asked him if he wanted to go to Panera (which is across the street) and he said yes. We had a fun lunch celebrating the end of Andrew's 1st year of school. Can't believe how big my little boy is getting!
