Erik's First Day of Preschool

Erik started preschool today at the Merage JCCOC.  I can't believe he is already 2 1/2 and starting preschool.  He will go two days a week, mondays and fridays, from 9 - 12:45.  He will have lunch there.  He has two teachers Ms. Lindsey and Ms Muhta.  There are 15 kids in his class.

It wasn't a difficult day for either one of us since he attended their summer school for 10 weeks during the summer.  It was our way of trying it out and he seemed to enjoy it.  He came home each day and said "Erik has new friends."  

For the first day he wore one of his favorite Thomas the Train shirts.  He got a new lunch box or as Erik would say "munch box" with firetrucks, ambulances and police cars.  He also got a new Thomas back pack.  Erik refers to it as his new "Thomas jacket."

Here are a couple of pictures with his new munch box.



He had no interest in standing for the picture.  The tradition of first day pictures has begun!

Hike at Crystal Cove State Beach

Today we went for a walk along Crystal Cove State Beach.  It was a beautiful warm summer day.  Erik found a bridge.



And a waterfall.


He had fun splashing around in the ocean too.  Sorry no pics of that.
