First day of preschool

Today Lauren started preschool. She was packed, ready and waiting by the door with her Dora backpack 10 minutes early. She walked into her class, hung up her backpack and didn't look back. No tears and had a great time. Mom took advantage of the quiet time and kept herself plenty busy and had fun herself.

Today and Thursday she goes in for two hours and then starting next week she will be going in for the full three hours.

Thanks Amme for her first day of preschool outfit!

Lauren posing in a tree at Lewis Ginter

Lauren and I went to Lewis Ginter the other day and she decided she wanted to get her picture taken in one of the special trees they have there. One of the last times we were there we had Brian's Aunt and Uncle Kathy and Bob pose in the tree for a picture. Honestly Lauren doesn't forget anything!



Trip to G and Poppy's

Brian was a wonderful husband the other weekend and took Lauren to Williamsburg to spend time with G and Poppy. From what I hear they did a little of everything. Here are some pictures from their trip.





Broccoli

Incase you didn't know this about Lauren...she likes broccoli. Brian planted a few broccoli plants this year and Lauren would go out into the garden and rip the broccoli off the plants and eat it all. Even the stem. Well last night at dinner she had broccoli with her meal and of course love it. That night in the middle of night I hear Lauren crying out (as if having a nightmare) only this is what I hear...."I ate all my broccoli. I have no more broccoli. I want my broccoli." Needless to say I didn't get out of bed to comfort her. I just don't think broccoli nightmares can really be all that scary.
