3 Year Old Preschool

Well, that time of year is here again! Emma started 3 year old preschool today with Mrs. Abbs. It was just like last year -- no looking back. Grammie, Emma and I went yesterday for Open House to meet her teacher, and today Emma took US to her room. She went straight to her teacher to let her know that she had arrived, then she sat at her desk and did not care if we stayed or left. Sigh. It sounds like one of the highlights of her day was playing on the 'big kid' playground. Last year, they could only look through the fence and drool. This year, she's a 'big girl'. When we picked her up, she was happy, but you could tell she was tired. Mrs. Abbs must have kept them busy today!

Baby Shower!

So, today my friends threw a baby shower for us. It was a lot of fun. The girls went all out! There were adorable mini bassinet cakes (see pic), lots of goodies to eat, and lots of fun presents to open. Emma was even honored with some gifts of her own. We now have lots of diapers and wipers to get started, and even some other handy gifts as well. I am overwhelmed with their generosity. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
