Growing up

Our car really needed vacumed and cleaned out so I had both kids out in the garage with me helping, which was interesting but we got it done. I took out both of their car seats and decided it was close enough to Taylor's birthday to give her Matthew's seat and get out Matthew's new booster seat. We had to go for a drive to try them out so we went to the library. They both love their new seats and I kept looking back at Taylor while we were driving because she just looked so cute and seemed so big to be in a forward facing car seat. Well, we are back to the blogging world so here is what we have been up to this last month. I can't believe Taylor's birthday is this Saturday, more about her to come.

First day of preschool

We started a little preschool on Monday for these five sweet kids. We are just trading between moms and doing it once a week for two hours. I had it at my house first and it went very well. I think they had fun and I was impressed with how well they all behaved and listened. Here they are eating their snack (faces made out of oranges, grapes, blueberries, raspberries, and apples)

One of the things we learned about was the body so I gave each of them a stuffed animal that we fixed up by putting band aids on parts of their bodies. We also did some fun things with the letter A and learned about measuring things. I am so excited for this and know Matthew is going to love it.

Pack the Parks

The park had a free lunch last Saturday and some fun blow up toys and marching bands. Matthew could have played on the two blow ups all day if I would of let him. As it is we did stay for a long time. It was great because there were not that many people there and he didn't have to wait at all. Matthew also broke his first board, I think the guy might have helped a little.

Art Festival in Bowling Green, OH

This was such a fun activity for kids. There were so many things for them to do. This is a picture of Taylor on the way home from the festival; we stopped at Mcdonalds and I just handed Taylor a hamburger. She did pretty well although her car seat was filthy. Luckily I switched her to her big car seat after this and washed this one.

Matthew played with this rubberband thing forever.

Farmers Market at Fallen Timbers Mall in Maumee

Every second Tuesday of the month they have horse carriage rides and these fun character people.

Matthew and Taylor loved the horse carriage ride. Taylor of course couldn't stop pointing at the horse and squealing at it.

Matthew remembers this dog from last fall and went right up to him and gave him a hug and said, "I've missed you." So cute!
