Aunalie's First week of Preschool

Aunalie, Aunalie, Aunalie... what can I say about her first week of preschool? It was only excellent. The only bad thing was right before we left for preschool the first day, I don't think she liked all the attention she was getting, but Noah actually jumped in and made her feel a ton better (one of my prouder moments of Noah)! Then we got there early, along with the rest of her class, and parents were taking pictures, and she could not stop smiling. When we went into preschool, I said, "do you remember what color your group was and with the biggest smile on, she pointed to the yellow bears and found her name almost immediately. Then off she went with Tessa to play. I don't even think she or I said goodbye, she was in heaven! I talked with the teachers afterwards and they said it was funny this year because a lot of the kids have older brothers/sisters that have been coming, so it's like they all knew what to do! But just as I suspected, she is loving it.

OnE mOrE yEaR!

So, it only took two years to get here, but Noah FINALLY runs into preschool excitedly AND answers some of my questions when I pick him up!  It may be because his bestie Malcolm is there, or his girlfriend Emma... whatever it is, I'll take it!

It may be bad, but I do secretly hope he does not become a racecar driver. He is still in love with Lightening McQueen. Come on, Disney, let's pump out another movie that maybe is about super intelligent doctors who are safely in their labs or something.

ThE 18 MoNtHs ThAt FlEw By!!

I took a few pictures this BEAUTIFUL fall morning of my beautiful 18 month old... MASON! I love this kid, even when he is yelling at me to get my attention.

Yes, he does climb up that ladder and go down the slide by himself. And because he is my third, I don't worry about it at all.

One more day...

Goodbye Summer! Thanks for all the popsicles, long days in pajamas/swimsuits/aladdin vests and extreme hot weather! Hellooooooo preschool! See ya tomorrow!

Where's Mason?

Hey Noah, smile for the camera!  (this is what I get)
