Blanky and bunny...

For a trip away, Ella can't leave blanky or bunny behind!
The blanky was given to Taylor before she was born for my baby shower, and has become Ella's favorite! The bunny was a gift before Ella was born from Great Gramps and Ms. Mary and has been a favorite from the start!

When seat belts attack...

Poor Jack was attacked by his seat belt yesterday!  Not too bad a black eye, but it got a nice hold of him, poor guy!

Fire Safety Week!

Jack is learning all about fire safety at preschool! So far they have made a bean filled smoke detector out of plates, and this cute little hat, he made the spots on the dog ears with his finger prints, and is quite proud of it!

Super Artist!

Ella came home with this beautiful drawing today, and I was trying to read what the shirt said on her little person, well it said Champion Talker, backwards, because that is the way she saw it when she looked down at the shirt she was wearing to spell it! LOVE IT!

First field trip of the year!!!

Jack's preschool class headed out to the apple farm for the first field trip of the year! Lucky Ella got to go as well, and just missed the 1st hour of school. Loads of fun stuff, starting with a hayride, then learning about how apples grow (should I mention the first apple picked that day was by Jack? The first one low enough for him to reach, while they were supposed to be learning about apples? Oh well, someone's kid had to do it, my as well have been mine!), then learning how cider was made, then a trip through the maze, a little playtime, a class photo, cider and doughnuts, and a fun craft to do! What a busy day! We followed it up with a playdate at McD's!
