Tues Aug 25th

We went to the park this morning. Lisey made a new friend which was nice to see, especially since she's been so cranky (for example she wanted to ride her little pink car to the park but about halfway there she didn't want to anymore and just ran away cry). These kids have got to get to bed earlier. Nick is out of town till Thursday so we'll see how it goes...

Link playing and in the tunnel at the park. Looking good Lincoln! My little big boy! 

I signed Lisey up for preschool today. It's just down the street, Tues Thurs for 2 hours each day for $75 a month. The teacher taught 2nd grade for 8 years. I think Lisey is really going to enjoy it. She's been dying to go to school ever since Ella started school this year. My baby is growing up! 

Link loves to beat his arms down in his high chair and in the tubby. He gets so excited when he does it, like he's showing us something big and important. Link is a delightful little guy. Today while Lisey and I did some baking, he just crawled around the kitchen. He hardly ever fusses, and when he does it usually means he's ready for a snooze. A few times he's stood up on his own. I can't believe how big he's getting. 

Ella had a friend over after school. They had a really good time playing. We made cookies and they danced. Unfortunately she could only play for an hour and a half, which Ella felt to be unexceptable so the had a huge mondo tantrum. Being a kid is rough stuff.  We ate a cookie and agreed that life is not fair.
