Hayden has been excited about going to school forever now. I think it was the last final push to help him get potty trained since he couldn't attend until he did so. Here he is walking proud with his sweet little penguin backpack equipped with his swim trunks, snack, and water. Unfortunately I was under the impression that since his preschool was at the YMCA that they would provide them a towel. Well, when I went to pick him up all the kids filed into the locker room wrapped in a towel and poor little Hayden was shivering...toweless. I was pretty ticked off since the facility has plenty of towels and they could have gotten my poor little boy one since his mommy wasn't smart enough to pack him one. Needless to say I won't forget that one again.
Maya seemed every bit as excited as Hayden. She acted like she wanted to stay there with him, but I know as soon as I was out of sight she would start screaming her little head off. She still has problems with me not being around. Someday I will be able to go work out without being called out way too early.
This was quite the hot item. As the tiny little children poured into the classroom, several of them ran for the macaroni including my two dolls. We were only there a few minutes with them but by the time we left, half of that macaroni had made it's way to the floor. Those poor teachers.
Here's my sweet little boy, or I guess I should say my BIG boy since that is how he refers to himself now. After all he is potty trained and going to school. Luckily he absolutely loves it and looks forward to going every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I have to admit that Maya and I are enjoying those three hours together as well. How easy it is when you only have one to watch over! Hopefully he continues to love school as much as he does now.
There are many times when we are driving around when I'll look back to see my sweeties holding hands from their carseats. I love that my two little kiddos can love each other so much!
Every Saturday we will take Hayden and Maya to the Saturday market. It has turned into a ritual for us. We will buy a small bag of kettle corn and two containers of organic grape tomatoes since the two of them will eat one whole container just as we walk around the market. I love that my little kids love veggies so much! Hayden will also require that we buy him a little bundle of fresh flowers which he is holding on to so dearly.
Here is a cute little photo of my dear little scowling Maya as she sits outside the Saturday market.
We recently took Hayden and Maya to the county fair which they both loved. Hayden got to ride a few rides which Maya was just envious of. She was just too small to get on any of them. Just being there was excitement enough which is shown in this cute sponge bob photo.
This was a photo taken shortly after their first eye exam. Suprisingly enough they were both dialated so they gave them both these eyeglasses to wear outside the builing. In children they use different drops so their eyes were dialated for a whole 24 hours. Poor Hayden was still squinting in the sun the next day. Luckily they both have perfect vision. I guess they were lucky enough to get my eye sight. They still looked pretty darn cute in their makeshift sunglasses.
