New Curtains

The new curtains are here and they look great! We are hoping that tomorrow morning reaps the benefit. We'll see...


Cole's room.

Sammie's room.

Her name is Cinderella, not Sammie. Get it right.

Peek-a-boo plate

I was in the kitchen this afternoon cutting up some more food for the kids' plates at lunchtime and Sammie yelled to me, "Mommy Cole isn't eating he's just playing with his plate". She is so good about keeping me informed!
Here he is having all kinds of fun at lunchtime. If you are wondering what kind of food makes his face SO messy--pizza rolls and watermelon (really all food but that's what he had today:)

Sick Day

So today was supposed to be Sammer's first real day of preschool but she and Cole both have little summer colds. Coughing, gross nose situations, etc. So, for today we stay home.
Sammie has really been into the computer lately. The first thing she asked me this morning was if she could play a game on the computer. So cute! I am glad that we are into a new chapter of entertainment-the TV is getting old.
Hopefully this will be a quick cold and she can go to school later this week.


Playing "Dora's Adventure"

Concentration face.

Cole scaling the walls!

He'll be running through this house....very soon!

Just not tired...

Today Cole slept in. He had a great night's sleep and woke up happy. Then, it was time for a nap. He wasn't having it. I tried at 11:00. I tried at 12:00. Finally I left him in there and he threw out all of his toys and pacis and fell asleep sitting up (sort of) in his crib! This just cracks me up-leaning up against the side like it's a recliner! Such a man.

1st day of school

Today was Samantha's official first day of Preschool. It was a shortened morning and parents stayed so it wasn't really a true "day" but it was fun. We made a placemat with her picture that she'll use at snacktime, played, checked out the playground, had circle time and of course checked out the bathroom situation:) It was a great morning and Sammer is jazzed to go back Tuesday without me! Such a big girl!!!


Happy first day!

In front of her school.


Gluing her picture on her placemat.

Making new friends.

"Look Mommy-I can do it by myself!"

Sitting for circle time.

Cole learning how to raise his hand!

The playground.

She'll be ready for a nap when I pick her up!

Let's go home.
