100 Days of Preschool

Oliver's daycare celebrated the 100th Day earlier this week.  The whole concept of this seems ridiculous to me, since its full-year daycare (this is done more frequently to commemorate the 100th day of Kindergarten).  Oliver's teachers informed us about a week beforehand that the kids were supposed to dress up like they were 100 years old, in celebration... eyeroll.  Isn't the Pizza party and themed books/arts & craft project enough?

Oliver wasn't interested in using a cane, putting baby powder in his hair to look grey, or any other props.  We don't even have loafers for the kids, so his only button down shirt, a pair of cords, and one of daddy's ties, was the best we could do.  Even though Adam had tried the tie on him the night before and Oliver had fun wearing it, he wasn't having any of it that  morning.  Adam joked that Oliver looked more like a sad trader/business man that had just found out his bonus number (can you tell what is on our mind this week?) than like an old man.  The joke got more laughs with Adam's colleagues than it is probably getting here.  Look at this face/expression!

Here are some pictures we got from his class.  Oliver doesn't look any more enthusiastic in the other 40+ photos we got from that day.  :-)  No idea why the kid in front is dressed like Santa!
