A Mop

While playing with John tonight, I was alternating between Dancing with the Stars and The Biggest Loser. They were showing clips from the beginning of The Biggest Loser, and Helen was laughing at her hair. She asked why no one had told her she had a mop on her head. A couple minutes later, John turned to me and said, "Mommy, you have a mop on your head." Thanks John...

Shoe-Addict x2

In an earlier post, I mentioned that Emma is a shoe-addict. As if proving my point, tonight while I was getting John out of the bathtub, Emma went into her room and crawled inside the shoe bin. She played with shoes for at least 10 minutes before crying for help. At least this way, the shoes aren't scattered all over the house.

Daddy's Helper

Scott mowed the yard tonight. The backyard was a forest, thanks to Max. John was so proud of himself for helping Daddy.

Preschool

John had his preschool open house this afternoon. He's going to be going to Rising Sun Learning Center, which is just on the other side of Pleasant Hill. Very convenient to say the least. Anyway, he LOVED it. Here are some of the highlights for him (although when asked what he was looking forward to most, he said, "EVERYTHING."):

1. Washer and dryer in "the blue room"
2. Butterflies (real ones and the butterfly puppet) and a fish
3. Pet carrier with a dog and a bone in "the blue room", along with lots of dress-up clothes
4. Bathroom (for BIG boys and girls)
5. Puzzles in the "quiet room"
