New school

Elliott and I went to his preschool to fill out paperwork for next school year. Jamie and I are thrilled with it and we are excited to see what Elliott learns. We came during snack time so E followed a class and joined in. I was completing the application and listening in, hoping he was not going to say something wildly inappropriate. The 13 kids were quietly snacking when E says, "Hey guys, I love Scooby Dooby Doo!" The room erupted with excited kids talking about Scooby. I suppose Scooby is the ultimate ice breaker. Elliott will fit in just fine!

The Big Four

Yesterday was Elliott's 4th birthday! We had lunch at our place and it was so great to see our family and friends. Hooray for my brother Matt who came out all the way from St. Louis! We celebrated by going to a Fort Wayne Tincaps game where he threw the first pitch. It was seemingly rainy, windy, cloudy and sunny all at the same time so we only stayed through the 7th inning.
Jamie's family stayed the weekend with us so we celebrated Mother's Day before they went home to Pennsylvania. We went to a great buffet and then I took a long nap. Elliott has been asking all day if we can go to his birthday again so I guess that's his way of saying he had a great time.
