My baby is growing up!

We were very fortunate to get a trundle bed for Lucy with two mattresses given to us last weekend. Taking into account that we had NO IDEA we were getting a new bed for her, we had to say adios to Stetson's crib ( because they share a room ) and say hello to a big boy bed for him! We just gave Lucy's old bed to him and, well, I know it is girly, BUT it does the job. I don't think there will be much judgement placed on him at 2 years old :) He has done AMAZING in it! One week has passed and he hasn't gotten out, and just loves it. I think it is due to the fact that he LOVES sports and his bedspread fits perfectly. I took these pictures as soon as we put the new comforter on, and didn't even realize he had a baseball in his hand! 

Miniature golfing anyone?

Oh my gosh we had so much fun taking the kids for their first time!!! It was awesome that the kids were free too! The kids didn't get the idea of letting each person take a turn, so for the most part it was a free for all. They were fascinated by all the fun little obstacles. 

 I love how Stetson has his club over his shoulder. He literally wakes up and says, "Golfing? Golfing? Daddy, golfing?" EVERY DAY!!! 

 He even has a professional putter that is just his size!! To die for right? Lucy got a set for her 3rd birthday that he now uses. Don't you love his Rainbows? He also wears these EVERY DAY!! They were the greatest hand me down ever! Come to think of it, this kid lives off of hand me downs!

 Where did my ball go??????

 Here is a little shot of, "it's everyone's turn all at the same time!"

 Now Lucy wants to know where her ball went!!! And Stetson just sat down to take a break!

 "Gosh darn it!!!! Can I climb in there????"

 I spy a little blonde way up where she shouldn't be!!!! Do you?

 I was trying to be a photo pro.....this is all I got for ya.... 

Our next adventure to blog about with the family is bowling! We are going tomorrow!

Last Day of Preschool!

Well for this year at least! Lucy now is going to be in the Monday, Wednesday, Friday 4 year old class.  She has had an amazing first year of preschool! I was so hesitant to put her in preschool ( being a teacher I have become SO picky with schools in general ) but I am so glad we chose this school. I mean COME ON, her dad went there when he was little! Couldn't be better right? She has become so close with a lot of the other kids, and has developed a great relationship with one of the teachers in particular, Mrs. Schulze ( Sarah ). In fact, when I went to Elevate this weekend I couldn't do Lucy's hair and make up for her dance pictures, so Sarah came to the rescue! We are excited to do her summer camp for the second year in a row this year as well! 

Sooooo, here is Lucy on her first day of preschool back in September.....

And here she was today! I cannot believe how they change so quickly!!!!

And here are two of her three teachers....the one she has become super close with is the 3 year old teacher who is on the right, and her teacher next year is the one on the left. Wonderful women!

To celebrate preschool being over a bunch of us headed to the RSM beach club. Super fun! The kids did so much better there this year than last year. ( this was our first trip this summer ) I can tell there will be many memories made there this summer!

Lucy's First Day of Preschool!

I couldn't be happier with our decision to put Lucy in Janet Sim's preschool....Troy went to her when he was little! I mean how perfect right? She is learning so much and is in LOVE with Mrs. Sims, Mrs. Schulze and Mrs. Glazier. She comes home with so many projects and with new songs each day! As a teacher myself I thought I was going to be very critical of any school Lucy went to, but I am so happy, it makes me feel so much better. And she has become friends with the kids in her class, and has many playdates. My little girl is blossoming and LOVING it! I am so proud of her! This was her first day !P = preschool :)

She had to decorate this bucket before going to her first day. This is what she takes home her projects in everyday. She decorated it ALL BY HERSELF.




Her homework assignment for the first day of school was to decorate this "L" for their Chicka Chicka Boom Boom wall. She decided these things to put on the L, the most meaningful one right now at this stage to me for her is the Annie picture. SHE LOVES ANNIE!

Lucy's 1st dentist trip!

Now that Lucy is BEYOND 3, I really knew I needed to take her to the dentist. I asked for a good recommendation from my friends and we fell in love! They were sooooo all about the child. Here are a few pictures of her visit. There were numerous waiting rooms, and this one had a few different gaming systems.

Getting her teeth cleaned....they give the kids sunglasses because the light is "so bright" when they are looking in her mouth. I was shocked she wore them, what a perfect picture opportunity!

The dentist checking for cavities, she didn't have ANY! Yahoo!

A trip to the toy chest ( the best part of the dentist right? )

And a little playing at the fountain afterwards.

What a perfect morning! Stetson was able to go the week after, he did just as well. Now we will be going every 6 months for the both of them.

Firsts

Because Lucy gave up naps I tend to take a lot of pictures of her sleeping in the car ....I dont know why but I enjoy it!

We gave Stetson his first sippy cup and he has been doing great!

Typical!

Stetson's First Trip To Disneyland!

We caved! We got passes!! WE ARE SO HAPPY WE HAVE PASSES AGAIN! We went from June to now...( October ) and couldn't take it any longer! We had a blast, and now that I am writing about it and it is almost December...we have been many many more times since this post!

Waiting for Daddy to buy our tickets. Lucy gets her own pass on her 3rd birthday in December!

Waiting for Small World.

Of course we had to do the carousel!!!

Stetson was as happy as could be! The stimulation was great for him!
