More Firsts...

It was a happy/sad week for me. Isaac and Leah started preschool and a new preschool at that. This is Isaac's third preschool and he is only 3. He doesn't remember his first one so I at least have that in my favor. The good news is that he was really excited about his new school. And so far he continues to really like it. The classrooms are nice and big and all have windows along the entire back wall. I think the brightness and cheeriness of the rooms is a big plus for him. He is such an outside kid, I think he needs to feel as close to nature as possible. The lead teacher is a grandmother and though she has high standards she is kind and patient. The mothers at the school have also been very welcoming to me too. I don't know anyone either so I told Isaac that we both have to try and make new friends. It has been a nice transition. Leah's first day was a little rough. She wasn't happy to leave me and then it turns out she spent a good portion of her morning being mad. Mad b/c she had to share, children kept taking her babies, or her snack or she couldn't wait her turn to go down the slide, etc. She has a strong will and it doesn't help that we all give in to it at home in order to avoid the screaming. That's just the way it is with 3. Isaac on his first day wore his soccer shorts, new shoes and awesome new Captain America backpack.

On Leah's first day she also wore her backpack like Isaac. It was so damn cute and everyone said so. She kept saying "bacpac" to everyone who looked her way. Isaac's and Leah's rooms are directly across the hall from each other which Isaac loves. He adores Leah and is so happy to be close to her.



Here Leah has to have a pillow on the sofa just like Isaac so they can watch "Crocodile Hunter" together. Which is the only show on the planet that Isaac will watch.






A mean game of driveway field hockey. Not really. But they do love to play and Isaac can actually hold his own fairly well.






Here Leah decides to help. I had to get her out or she would surely take a stick in the face.
