My First Day of School!

Today was my first day of preschool! Daddy stayed home in the morning to help me get off to a good start at school! Here I am with my tote bag and lunchbox, all set to go to preschool! I had a good breakfast with Daddy, then Mommy took me in to school! I had a good time, and didn't have any problems with Mommy leaving me there. Sshhhhh....don't tell anybody, but I think it was harder on Mommy and Daddy than it was on me :)

Don't I look like such a big boy going to school!

Weekend Fun!

Like usual, Mommy and Daddy are always trying to think of things to keep us entertained. So this weekend, we decided to count how many toy cars, truck, bulldozers, buses, motorcycles, etc.. we had in our collection! We lined them all up in the great room! I didn't realize that I had so many of them!

After that, Mommy put Brighton in the dryer! I decided that I wanted to get in as well, so we had a little party in the dryer! That was pretty neat, although I didn't think I could fit in there at first!

5th Anniversary!

Mommy and Daddy got all dressed up this evening and they said they went out to eat. Brighton and I got to stay home and play with Grandma, Mimi and Grandaddy. Mommy told me that they went to a really fancy restaurant and actually ate in the kitchen to experience the atmosphere of a top-notch professional kitchen. The executive chef was their waiter! Anyways...here are a couple of pictures they said they took!

Preschool Orientation

Today was the day that I went to my preschool class to meet my teachers in preparation for starting school next Monday! I was a little unsure of my teachers when I walked into the room because I had never seen them before, but they immediately started playing with me and I joined right in! My teachers talked to Mommy and Daddy for a little while about some rules and guidelines, etc., while I played. I will be going to preschool three days a week (M/W/F) from 9am to 12:45). I will even be eating lunch there!

10 Months Old!

Today I turned 10 months old! I weighted in at 21 pounds, 4 ounces. Mommy and Daddy say that I am a totally different baby. I am all over the house, pulling up on everything, and even cruising from one thing to the other. I'm generally a very happy baby, just don't mess with my routine! I've already started wrestling with my big brother. He often says, 'Get me!', so I'll crawl fast over to him and head-butt him! I really love my brother though, he is usually pretty nice to me and will make sure that he share's his toys with me.

Anyways...I'll be walking before you know it!

Playground Fun!

This weekend we made a visit to the local playground. I had been to this playground before, but it was before my brother was born! I had a lot of fun and worked up quite a sweat. Went down slides, played in sand, went swinging with my head flopped back, ran all around, even hung from the rings! Brighton got to swing as well, he really likes that. Grandma and Nanny joined us, so we had a lot of fun.

Standing!

So, my latest development is the ability to stand on my own! You can often find me at the train table trying to play with things on the top. I figured that it would be much easier if I can just stand at the side of the table, so I went ahead and did it! For a while, mommy never actually saw me do it, she would just turn around and see me standing! I am very mobile now and get into everything and pull up on everything! If I hear mommy's voice at the other end of the house, I can be there in no time!
