Things that make me happy

Children who are so aware of life around them, they create their own parking lot.

We are 4!

On Gracie and Lukie's first day in the Big Kid Room at pre-school, we had to make sure that everyone knew they were 4.  Four is a magical age, you see.  You are BIG now and you can do all kinds of things by yourself.

So advertising is necessary.

We went with our 4th Birthday shirts.  I think it is pretty obvious that they are 4.

Their new backpacks are bigger than they are.  But they were so excited when they saw these things!

Transformers for Lukie and Hello Kitty for Gracie.

I love 4.  So do Gracie and Lukie.

Our goals before we're 4

Gracie and Luke are just a few days away from their fourth birthday. A month or so ago, the three of us set some goals to be met before their birthday.
1. That they would choose their clothes and dress themselves.
2. Fasten their seat belts by themselves.
3. Wipe their own booties effectively.
I have to say that I am very proud of them! They have almost hit all three completely. They only have to master the third one. The cool part is that they almost have it down.
Gracie and Luke are beyond excited for their birthday. They have every reason to be: they aren't babies any more!
