So close...

We Ryan has been working with Jacob to get him to ride his bike without training wheels. He is so stinkin' close but just isn't tall enough to be comfortable falling. I think by the fall he'll have grown tall enough and be ready to go. I can't wait to go on family bike rides!

Graduations!!!

This was a big year in school for both Hunter and Jacob. Hunter graduated from kindergarten and Jacob graduated from pre-school!

The whole kindergarten gathered together and sang songs in front of all the parents.

We then went home and celebrated with root bear floats!

Jacob had his play where he was a llama in pajamas. Afterwards they ran around Miss Addies house and consumed way too much junk food.

Water Day!!

At the end of the year in pre-school they have a water day. Jacob was so excited to play and go down the big water slide. They had games, yummy snacks, and of course the much awaited water slide.

The new time-out spot

We moved the boys' room around so now these shelves are in plain playtime view. They love playing on them and tonight they had me put pillows in front so they were blocked in. I wonder if I could fashion doors there to lock them in....

A day with G.G.

We drove out to see G.G. today to have lunch with her. The boys love going over to her house. G.G. has a great backyard with beautiful flowers and a bird area. The boys get a kick out of all of the birds and love to help feed them. Grandma put them on pigeon watch and so every 2 minutes they had to go see if there were pigeons.

Jacob said this one looks like a mint! I think he eats way too many of these from Sonic.

Petting Zoo at School!

Hunter and his class have been working hard on a farm unit for the past couple of weeks. To conclude the unit, the teachers got a petting zoo to come for the Kindergartners. There were piglets, baby goats, chickens, rabbits, a duck, a goose (and a partridge and a pear tree!). The kids loved getting right in the cage to get up close and personal with the cute animals. Sadly the chickens and duck didn't get too much attention.

Wildlife World Zoo with Jacob

Jacob's preschool went on a field trip to the Wildlife World Zoo last week. Despite the fact that it was freezing we had a good time. He's been there so much that he just breezes by the animals, instead of really checking them out.
