New rooms, dinosaurs, and milestones!

We had a fun Family Saturday morning! Steven, Jack and I went to the Fernbank Museum to the Dinosaur Bash! It was lots of fun and Jack had a great time! We got to tour the whole museum (Jack loved all of the animals and dinosaurs) and they had a big birthday celebration for Dinosaurs in the main hall.  We made a dinosaur hat, played bean bag toss, played with the bubbles with the Bubble Man, and got to see a triceratops walking around! It was fun!

Jack started his new class a couple weeks ago and has done very well! He has two new teachers that we really like! They said he is a really great listener, and lots of fun during interactive times! He always tells me what he did that day and who he played with when we get in the car! He really likes his friends at school and has lots of fun! But ...you dont want to get in trouble around Jack, because he will not keep it a secret! Some days I get a report on who was "so so sad" (had to go to timeout) that day! So far, that has not been Jack! Let's hope he keeps up that trend!

Jack is also in his big boy bed! He has done SOOOOOOOOOOOO great! He thinks it is a lot of fun and talks about his bed lots! He stays in his bed and waits on Mommy and Daddy to come get him in the morning! We only had one day during the first nap that he got up a few times! Let's hope he continues to do well! He looks so cute in his bed and I love being able to lean down and kiss his little head at night before we go to sleep! What a big boy! He even told his "friends" (stuffed animals) to "Stay in bed! Never Never get out!"
The only thing that Jack missed the first night was the chair. When we went to sit on his bed to read books, he kept asking about his chair (that is where we have sat for 2.5 years at bedtime). It's in Lucy's room! Luckily, there wasn't a huge fuss over that. I think the excitement over the big boy bed took his mind off of the chair!

Our past weekends have been super busy (What's new? We seem to have stayed that way lately) BUT very successful! Grandbubba and Aunt Denise were in town to help paint! The boys painted the living room and sitting room downstairs and Lucy's room! (OH PINK IS SO FUN!) Her room looks so cute and the crib is up with her new bedding! It looks like a completely different crib! It is really so fun! Our projects aren't complete but we are slowly checking things off the Leonard to do list!

I am continuing learning to sew with some help from great friends! I really think it's fun and am excited to try some new things! Hopefully Lucy will think it's neat that Mommy made some of her dresses!

Time marches on...we are almost in our third trimester!

Check our our new pictures!
