First Day of Pre-K

This is what I have found out from just picking Jack up from school.
He loves his new school
He got to play on the playground twice!!!!
He played pirates and power rangers with the boys outside.
He showed the class his "All about me" poster. It was pictures of Jack and his favorite things.
He had music class. They sang and danced.
He liked his teachers.

We are so proud of the little man his is.

Birthday Dinner

Sean, Kate, and baby Grace (in belly) came for dinner

Happy 2nd birthday sweetheart. We love you so very much.

Birthday Girl

The Snyder birthday tradition is to open presents in the morning and have cinnamon buns for breakfast. Emma is in love with Minnie Mouse and Jack got her a Minnie. Look at her face after opening it! Tonight my parents and Sean/Kate are coming over for a birthday dinner and to open the rest of her gifts.

Gift

My husband gave me the greatest gift- my children.

Bowling

Elizabeth from school had a wonderful birthday party at the bowling alley.

Go

Emma was cheering on Daddy and Jack while they played street hockey.

* Jack just watched this video and say, "Emma is cute as pie!"

Pre-season

The Steelers first pre-season game is tonight

News on the Street

Jack is starting a morning Pre-K program at Myrtle Grove Christian School. He will go MWF. Michael and I fell in love with the school and his teacher right away. We have a parents meeting next week, along with Jack going into the classroom for a few hours either next Wednesday or Friday. THEN the 24th is the official first day of school. Michael, daycare, or I will pick him up from school and he will spend the afternoons at daycare with his sister.

Jack will also begin soccer the end of this month.

Emma turns 2 on the 19th. My baby is growing up so fast.

Toes

This the second time Em has had her toes done. Each time was from a girl down the street and she just loves getting pampered. She sits back in a chair with this relaxed look on her face and sticks her feet out. AND for the last week she will walk up to me, look down at her toes and smile real big.

Worked!

I got worked by Jack! Michael went to a fight with our neighbor so Jack wanted to sleep in mommy's bed. I told him no but then he said:
Mommy lay down.
Lets cuddle
I love you Mommy.
I had the best day with you.
Thank you.
I love you to the moon and back.

As you can guess Jack slept with me until Michael got home.

Fishes

The kids went on another field trip... this time to the Fort Fisher Aquarium. My mom enjoyed being a chaperon. The kids really had a fun morning out.
