Never too soon

The last few weeks we have been watching a lot of volleyball. You are really starting to enjoy it. Last night we went to a high school game and while we were waiting to walk back to our seats (after our 3rd trip to the potty)... you copied what the girl was doing as she was serving.. It was really cute!! Today we headed back to one of Mallorey's game and watched them win again:) On the way home you asked me, "Mom, can I put on my shirt too and play." It took a few minutes to figure out what you were talking about so when I asked, "Oh you mean a uniform. You want to play on a soccer team or something like that?" You said, "No a bolleyball team" That's my girl :) Love you french fry

October fun

These last two weeks have been filled with soooo many fun things that I have completely forgotten to update your blog. You have been going to school 3 days a week and are really enjoying it.
We had a fun play date with Brandon last week and you and him had a blast.
You even tried on his Halloween costume...(we were trying to get him to do it, so we thought if you did, maybe he would...nope)




On Saturday, you wanted your hair in "lots of ponies" so we had a fun time doing that.


Here you are after you learned a new trick from Briley at your school.

Today we went to the Pumpkin Patch with Mary and little Evan. You got to ride many rides, including the biggest slide I have ever seen (all by yourself). You guys went on the cars, the elephants, the turning cups, the petting zoo, the bouncer, not to mention you picked out a pretty cool pumpkin.






After all the fun there we went to Ruby's for lunch and had a really nice time.

You have really been helping me get ready for our Halloween party that is just a few weeks away... I hope you are getting as excited as I am. Love you french fry.

1st day of preschool

So yesterday you had your first day of preschool. It is not at a real school, but one of our local parks. You get to go 3 days a week for 2 hrs a day. You were sooo excited that you actually woke up at 7am and ran in to wake me saying, "Mom, today I go to school." We got all ready, had breakfast and we were on our way. You even packed your backpack the night before (you filled it with blocks, I refilled it with extra clothes and snacks).
Here you are as we are just about to get in the car.


The park is literally a 10 minute drive, max. We had to do a quick stop at the bank and then we were there. This is how you arrived for your first day...

(apparently the excitement was short lived)

Once I opened your door and woke you by telling you we were at school, you were ready to go. You woke up very quickly and practically jumped out of the car.

(notice the drool on her shirt) :0

We got to your room ans you met your teacher, Mrs. C. She is very nice and you liked her right away. She told you to get a puzzle or book and pick a seat. So you did and you were fine from that point on. I was a little nervous to just leave but you reassured me that you would be fine and I could go. So I did.
Here you are with your first puzzle.


I came back about 1/2 hour early to peek in on you and you were doing fine. In fact you were making your first project and your new friend, Brielle, was helping you. After a few minutes your teacher told you guys to get a book and sit quietly if you were finished. So you did. She then said to not get up even if you were finished. That was fine until the boy next to you tried to get up. You quickly tried to remind him of the rules by putting your book out as to block his way to the books. He was able to get around you and went anyways. You didn't like that so you decided to gently whack him on his back with your book. I couldn't believe what I was watching!!
I walked away and waited outside with the other parents until you were dismissed. When we got back to the car, I asked you why you hit the boy with your bear book. And you replied, "No, I didn't. It was a monkey book." Aye ya ya Well at least you were honest about it. Mrs.C said you did a great job and that she was happy to have you in her class.
I was so excited to have some fridge art.




I'm glad you had such a great first day. I love you very much, but I'm not so sure I'm very fond of this growing up thing you are trying to do :) Love you, french fry.

No excuse...this time

I know I have been horrible about posting lately. I usually blame it on the new school year starting, but I can't do that this year. I'm not sure why I haven't been able to get in here and post. It's not like you are not doing awesome things each day. I promise, I will try harder. :)

This last week or so has been a pretty busy one. We have been to many different sporting events, shopping excursions for our Halloween party, and today we even saw a movie. This past weekend while we were at Tori's socer game, you were unfortunate enough to get stung by another bee :( This time on your hand. You were so brave. Once we got the stinger out, you just wanted to play on the playground (how could I resist) You didn't have a major reaction, but it did swell up pretty good. You were super tough, though.

I have been thinking about signing you up with a management company to start doing some "extra" work on commercials, tv shows, etc... I am a little nervous about it, but I think you would do great and everyone under the sun tells me that I should. So we might be looking into that real soon.

Tomorrow is a very special day because it's your first day of "preschool." It's just a 2 hr session a few days a week at a local park, but I am hoping that you will get some of the socialization that you don't get being with me all day. You have been asking for months when you get to go to school, and I can't believe the day has come. Tonight you even grabbed one of your backpacks and packed some "necessary" things. I hope that I can be as brave as I am sure you will be. I'm know you will do great, it'sme I'm worried about :)

Well, thanks for always making me smile and for beinga great little french fry. I love you so much and I am so proud of you. Love you french fry.
