Update on the second day of 3K for the twins which was just this past Wednesday. Since last week we have been telling the boys that they would be going back to school and that mommy would be leaving. Clayton was insistent that we were not leaving him there alone. Wednesday he actually seemed better with the idea that I would be leaving. So I took Kenzie along to drop them off. The went in to the class and put their backpacks away and went right to the rug to play. I went over to tell them I would be leaving and Clay got very teary and asked me not to leave so I as any good parent would LIED to my three year old that I would just go wait outside until they were done and he seemed OK with that. Calvin on the other hand said bye mom and waved and gave me a kiss. I did leave and go home but not before a stop to the office to assure them that I would only be 3 mins away if he needed me just to call. I got home and Kenzie was already asleep. It felt great to just get things done around the house for 1 1/2 hours!!!! I even made stuffed peppers for dinner! And no phone call. When I went back to pick them up Mrs. Arendt said they did good and that Clay only cried once on the way up from gym but once she reassured him that I was just in the van with Kenzie he was fine. I did feel a little bad that we lied to him but what he doesn't know will not hurt him (until he is older and finds out)!!! We will see what next week brings. As you can see from the photo's 3K is very exhausting.
Clayton ready for day number 2 of 3K (Brown was the color of the day)
Calvin is SOOOO ready and excited!
We got there a little early and they liked watching the big kids on the playground!
Calvin had to go 'poop' after class and then it got very quiet so I went to check out what he was doing. This is what I found!
Clay made it almost through dinner but just could not keep the eyes open anymore!
Other then the fun of 3K we had a busy weekend. Last friday we took all the kids to the Slinger High School football game and they were all really good and it was actually a lot of fun. Slinger lost but still a good time. Saturday Ben and I went to a wedding in the evening and the kids spent the night by Gigi and Papa. The wedding was a blast and Thanks to the grandparents for a night off!!! Sunday we went to church then headed off to the Zoo. Had a great time there, as usual, and then Monday we painted our bedroom! What a fun and productive Labor Day weekend. Sure did miss going Up North but being home was not all bad either!!!! Looking forward to another busy weekend.
