Pre-K and Other News



Yesterday Charlie officially started in his new Pre-K classroom. We are excited for him because this room brings about a lot of new experiences. This year Charlie will get to take field trips. They have plans to go to the zoo and visit some parks. Also, after the Summer session is over and the school year begins Charlie will start to wear uniforms.

Charlie was really excited to move up with some of his close friends to a classroom full of new friends. It was all he could talk about last night and this morning was no different. We are looking forward to an exciting Summer for him and a school year full of new things to learn.
Daniel is still in the infant room, but not for long. He will be moving up to the Toddler room in July. He couldn’t really care less about the move, but Mom and Dad are excited because they will be getting a significant pay raise.

Right now Daniel is a superfast crawler. We have to watch out because he can get from his room to the top of the stairs in about 2 seconds. We are back into the Distract & Corral method of parenting for him . . . it’s been a while. He can also stand by himself for about a minute and he loves to cruise behind his walker.

In other news, the weather has been fantastic for the past couple of weeks. We have probably spent more time outside the house on the weekends than we have inside. We have enjoyed several outside dinners and evenings on the front porch swing. Daniel loves to sit in a lap, swing and watch the neighbors. Charlie has had lots of fun helping us and some neighbors dig in their gardens. The boys also enjoyed a bike trailer trip down to the park last weekend at the expense of Dad’s legs. They have plans to do it again and often.
