Happy Halloween 2010!

We have thoroughly enjoyed this Halloween season, attending parties, dressing up and trick or treating have all been super-fun this year! 
Hope Everyone had a Happy and Safe Halloween!

 Heading out to Trick or Treat in our neighborhood:
Jack was the Fed Ex Delivery Man - complete with a dolly full of packages and 
Quent was a Scary Dinosaur (though I think he was mostly adorable, he swears he was scary!)

 At one house -  (just love that tail on the dinosaur) aren't they quite the cute pair!

And then they were showing off their jack-o-lanterns - 
which they drew themselves and Mom and Dad  helped to carve.
They both did a great job!
Happy Halloween from our handsome Fed Ex Guy and adorable Dinosaur!

P is for Preschool

 So, we are coming to the end of our 3rd week in Preschool, and Momma is still standing!!  Actually it was pretty hard those first few days, for me - not them, but we have all adjusted pretty well to our new school schedule.
Of course we took lots of pictures of that momentous first day!

They are ready to go!

 Momma, can we go now?

Okay, but this is the last one, right?
They were so ready to get there!


 At the doors of the school, sporting identical backpacks, rarely do they pick out exactly the same thing, but they HAD to have these!

At their lockers - yes, my preschoolers have their own lockers!
 Sitting down and signing in for the day! 

 Do you think he is happy to be there?!

 Jack is very happy too!

So, then Momma begs the boys for a hug and a kiss before she leaves and they can barely stand still long enough to do that! 
"Okay Mom, Bye!  See you later!" - My Big Boys!
Momma leaves and saves her tears for the car and drives home :(

After what felt like far more than 3 hours, finally it was time to go out to wait for the bus.
 "Here comes their bus!"
 (Papa came over to see the boys come home on their first day and take pictures of them getting off the bus, that way Momma could just give hugs!)

They are loving getting to ride the school bus!

Momma is so happy to see her hot, tired boys after a long morning of preschool!  
They had so much to tell me and absolutely loved preschool and have been loving it everyday since. Everyday they ask if they are going to preschool.  They have made friends that they regularly talk about.  They come home with new songs and new skills and so much to share!  And everyday they remind us that they get to ride the bus home - that is still the best part for them!
And Momma has slowly eased into letting them go and grow and learn away from me, and enjoy the time that I have to do other things by myself.
