Popsicle Parade!

Afternoon nap wake-ups have been BRUTAL around here.  Three grouchy boys is not what this mama needs....but popsicles always seem to chase the blues away!  Whew....ready for the long weekend:-)

Kenny's Creation

Kenny has turned so focused (in certain areas:-)  since starting preschool.  He finished breakfast this morning and moved right on to block creations.  This is a train--can you tell?

Kenny the not-so-receptive student

 

I tried to work on letters with Kenny early in the summer.  He was totally unreceptive, so I gave up.  Then today at preschool, other kids were able to find their own nametag.  Needless to say, Kenny couldn't.  This led to me trying again.  We didn't get too far!  How did I get so lucky to have a 3-yr-old who thinks he knows everything?:-)

Ellitch Gardens Getaway

We had such a fun day at Elitch Gardens in downtown Denver.  It was Lockheed Martin day, so we had free passes, discounted lunch, and a small crowd (it wasn't open to the general public).  The kids area surpassed our expectations.  We only got to about half of the kids rides!  It will be a fun destination over the coming years:-)

Kenny's 1st Day of Preschool

No tears were shed this morning as we packed up the crew for Kenny's 1st day of preschool.  There was slight drama when we wouldn't let Kenny wear his fireman rain boots to school:-)  Jacob & John dutifully sat in the hall while Darin and I helped Kenny hang his backpack in his cubby, wash his hands, and put on his nametag.  Kenny jumped right into play and could care less about us leaving him.  Now what to do with the next 2.5 hours??

Bolthouse Fire Brigade

The Bolthouse Fire Brigade had a busy day responding to multiple emergencies.  Kenny was in charge of dispatching Jacob & John, though their sense of urgency seemed lacking.  Boots were the key component in the uniform....no one has fallen yet:-)

The jokster twins:-)
