Preschool

So how was your first day of preschool Colin????  He was really excited before school and when he got picked up.  He seemed to have a great first day with no mommy or daddy.  The hope was that he would still be just as excited when we went to lunch.  He was not.  He was getting a bit sleepy and silly so we couldn't get too much information from him.   Here's what we did get from him:

He did talk a lot about playing in the playground at school.  A couple of names were mentioned, that we are assuming are classmates but it wasn't too clear.   Unfortunately he didn't share that stuff on the video.  Preschool is a big hit and he's ready to go back.

Summer is Finishing Up

We had a pretty busy summer with camping, birthday parties, camping again and people visiting.  That all seems to be coming to a close.  Colin is starting preschool tommorow and no more vacation plans are made.

A lot of time was spent outside playing.  Cities are constantly being worked on with Colin's fleet of tractors out in the sandbox and other dirt areas.  There are frequent walks up and down the street, which are more of runs for Colin.  We spent a week up in Maine camping at a very kid friendly campground with his play group buddies.  A bit on the cool side but definitely worth it.  Both GaMommy and Yaya came on the trip so he had plenty of adults to help him stay busy.  We also went back down to NJ to family camp to meet up with the Flanagans whom we last saw after we left there almost 10 years ago.  We just got back this morning at 3a (it seemed like a good idea at the time) so there may be things forgotten.  Hopefully the pictures cover the detail or maybe we'll post again with more very soon.

Check out the growth comparison chart down at the bottom.  Colin had his 3yr visit and is doing great.  In the 4% for height but everything is lining up and proportional.  He is amazingly similar in growth to his daddy.
