More Turkey Songs

Madison's class decorated vest, hats and necklaces in honor of the Indians/Native Americans/Original People for Thanksgiving. (Did I cover the bases to be PC?) The other pre-k class were the pilgrims. Super cute luncheon at school where the parents received an impromptu recital. It is kinda painful to watch (I think they were putting up the tables during the songs) but worth seeing the kid fall down and to hear the vegetarian song, which is awesome, even though they messed it up.

Art

Madison's art has become a little more refined, with shorter lines versus the toddler scribble and generally has a pretty good story. So, when she brought home these art pieces from school (they are called art pieces since she did them in art class) I was a bit curious of the story. Once heard, I knew it needed to be document.

She calls this one: Monster in the Hurricane
That is one crazy and disturbed monster.


This is story: I call it Bunny Turned Wolf

the parents were gone and the bunny rabbit came and hopped in the soup. it was burning him and then he didn't have anywhere to live. days and days he had to stay in the soup. he didn't like that so he had to live in a closet. he didn't like the closet and hopped away and was then lost in the woods. and then he didn't like the woods and ran away and became a wolf

the end
Several hours later she asked if I wanted to hear Part II

the letters were lost in the woods all by themselves and no one to take care of them because the wolves already ate them.

The Little Socialite

The weekend started out with a Friday night dinner at Ann Marie's. Saturday was ballet, Oak Forest fall festival, Emily's birthday bash at the Pink Polka dot followed by a gathering of friends at the family bar, the Petrol. Sunday was Greyson & Asher's birthday at Wonder Wild and the day concluded with dinner at the Schafer's where Jacob found his true love. To say the least, I am not for that many activities in a weekend, but Madison held up perfectly as any socialite would. There was a mild breakdown on Sunday night a she literally crawled into bed and clasped. For me personally, I couldn't wait for Monday.

Happy 4th Birthday Emily!


Happy 5th Birthday Greyson! Happy 2nd Birthday Asher!

Finally...the hold

It took Madison 10 weeks to finally get comfortable to hold Austin...and I think he liked it.
