Fun at the Children's Museum

On Friday the boys and I decided to try out the Marbles Children's Museum in Raleigh. We had a blast. There were so many fun dress up and imaginative play areas that Parker loved. Fire Fighters were of course his favorite. Both boys made pretty cute ones if you ask me. They had a great pirate ship to play in, a water area, large legos, REAL tools, and many other cool areas to play. I think I had as much fun as they did. We will definitely have to go back soon.

Firefighter in training!

Hey everybody! Where's the fire?

Yikes!

Preschool here we come!!!

In the words of Parker "I'm old enough to go to preschool today".

And he's right. Today was Parker's first day of preschool. He did so well. He walked right into his classroom and put his things in his cubby. He went to coloring at the table and we said goodbye. Amazingly no tears but he knew I'd be back after the playground:)

Now how did mommy keep from crying, because believe me it was tough. Well he did great for one and then my good friend Tricia kept me busy with a little shopping and then some fantastic pedicures. Then it was time to pick him up. He said he had fun and wants to go back to play with the hook and ladder truck and go on the other playground.

What fun things to look forward to.

We had lunch with daddy too which was great.

Ready for school

Check out that hot wheels bookbag

He thought the chair was silly when in vibrated.

This is how I found Parker when I checked in on him at nap time (after school).

Check out the book he wanted with him. For anyone getting your child ready to transition to preschool this is a fabulous book!

Thanks Gigi for the crayon popsicles in celebration of starting preschool.

YUM!
