Maeve's 4 yo preschool interview

Maeve's first day of preschool interview

Kaleigh's first preschool interview

Maeve starts 4 day preschool

What a big difference between the end of last year and the beginning of this one. Maeve came home and was able to tell me all about her day, the face she made, the picture she painted, the book about the raccoon Mrs. Rose read, and the snack they had. She has so much fun and was excited to she her friends again. It's gonna be a great year!

Kaleigh's first day of preschool.

After much anticipation, Kaleigh was off for her first day at Mrs. Kannelly's class. She did awesome. It was very nice that I got to work and see her transition. She loved playing with the dolls, exploring the puzzles and books and making a happy face. We sang "if your happy and you know it" and "open shut them" and got to watch Princess, the classroom gerbil. She Kaleigh also loved running outside with her new friends. She already told me she "doesn't need me to come to preschool with her" while we were getting icecream to celebrate her success. My little girl is growing up!

My kookie KaKa is 3!

How amazing is it that she can already be three. She is just adorable and has such a sweet temperament. Although there is a little 3 going on, with whining and her trying to be defiant (it's so cute when she says "NO" and crosses her arms.....it's like we both know she doesn't have anything behind it!), in general, she is my peacemaker, crowd pleaser and very easy going. Some things that make her her!

-loving pancakes, french fries and chips (my carb girl!)

-"what happens if..." Her latest ongoing question.

-her long beautiful hair (which she doesn't like braided or brushed)

-reading, reading, reading!!! to herself and if anyone will read to her. Her favorite books are Little Ms. Birthday, Jimmyjon Jones

"I'm not ___(fill in blank for whatever Maeve is getting in trouble for)" (i.e., pushing, yelling, whining)

-Frequent visits from Yaya, her imaginary friend who seems to morph into a boy, a girl, a dog, a naughty person, a nice person or whatever she needs at the moment.

-size 10 shoes

-taller than Maeve at this age

-wearing size 4 clothes

-completely potty trained since a little after 2 1/2 yo, even at night

-my cuddle bug

-my jumping bean

-the way she walk...with her tummy out, arms swinging and head forward

-her fascination for boys vs. girls in terms of how they pee. Boys stand up, pee on trees, Girls DO NOT!

-her love for her taggie blanket

-her excitement for preschool
