Registration paperwork for my up and coming prek'er and 3 year old preschooler have been filled out. All that is left to do is write the check and hand it in.
I can not believe I will have a 3 & 4 year old come next school year! Feels like just yesterday I held them each for the first time and gazed into their little baby eyes and held their warm tiny hands.
Cherish everyday for time goes by in a blink of an eye.

Some multi task better than others. I was always rather good at it and think since having children I have become even better, at times.
This morning I multi tasked two things I never thought I would....brushing my teeth while doing leg lifts!

I've come to the conclusion that purple is not a boy color. The color of the week in Coopers preschool class is purple, they have show and tell tomorrow and it should be purple and they are to wear purple.
I looked through Coopers clothing last week and he had nothing purple. I mean nothing, not even a cape on a superhero tshirt was purple. So I went to Target to find him something purple...after a long hard search came home with a Teenage Ninga Turtle shirt that the turtle had a purple sash. Let me tell ya that was a hard search!!! The girls department was vomiting purple though. Now to find a show and tell item...yep just as hard. Luckily when I got Coop up from his nap I noticed that his dragon pillowpet has purple dots and spikes on his back!
We're set! I hope next week's color is a bit easier!

Squishy yet frozen. The earth feels interesting under the feet today.

I'm not getting my hopes up...but Coop did a fantastic job on the potty today. He woke up dry this morning and throughout the day kept a dry diaper until after his nap. He also peed on the potty at least 4 times!
I of course wish this to be the beginning of the end of size 4 diapers and hope to have a visit from the Diaper Dude soon but if he regresses that is ok too!
One thing I learned the first time through, don't push it!

Tonight as one of our bedtime viewings with the children we watched one of the new Doc McStuffins. This episode was about Doc going to her friend Emmie's house for a sleepover and how she missed her parents. Ella was all eyes during the show...glued to the tv.
We head up to bed and as she reaches the top of the stairsteps she breaks down into tears. I hear her through tears and sobs asking if I will miss her when she's at a sleepover. My heart melts as my sweet sweet girl is upset over something that once she completely understands what a sleepover is will love them! I talked to her about it explaining that she doesn't need to go on a sleepover until she is comfortable in going on one and that until that time comes she doesn't have to stay overnight at a friend's house. I told her that maybe we could have a sleepover at MoMom and PoPops first which she seemed to like.
Children are amazing...I love her to pieces, to the moon and beyond!

Cooper and I were looking at a color book and I was having him tell me each color. We get to the blue page and he says it's black....immediately following that answer with..."not black!" - He's so darn cute!
