Peyton started preschool last month, can't believe that didn't get on here. Such a slacker. She loves it. Its a parent co-op, so once a month one of us goes in to volunteer as the parent helper. So far I have gone in twice. I don't know how people can do that everyday, its exhausting. I am glad that we chose this one and we are able to go in and participate, cause that stubborn child doesn't tell us much about what they do. Its great for her to be out socializing so much, learning to share...its easy to spot the only children when it comes to sharing. She was protesting writing her name on her own until finally yesterday at home she did without having to be told the letters.
She did it again after that and got the t in there. I wish I knew a way to get her interested in learning how to read. Anyone have suggestions?
We took Calvin on his first road trip a few weeks ago. We went up north, visited Jeff's grandparents and my sister. Failed to get pictures of that. What is wrong with me?? Then over to the coast to the aquarium. Other than a few meltdowns by everyone and difficulty finding a hotel, who knew the coast would be so popular on such a rainy weekend, it was a good a trip. Tomorrow we will head south for his first trip to the races. Starting young, as Jeff likes to say.
Peyton and I have been doing all sorts of fun projects. Thanks to pinterest.com I have lots of ideas to keep her busy. Like glow sticks in the bath, so simple and fun, would have never thought of that. Or glow sticks in a balloon. Found some ways to display all of her art projects, the pink board was bought~such luck finding that at TJ Maxx, love it!
Halloween is coming up, so we bought a couple little pumpkins to try out another thing I saw. They need red eyes, will have to do that, but aren’t they funny??
And I finally remembered I had a silicone brownie tray thing, so we used it yesterday to make some colorful, square crayons.
And speaking of pumpkins, we successfully grew 4 in our garden.
