animal farm, high chairs, food, and fishing

Will had a field trip with his preschool class to the animal farm at Thanksgiving Point on Thursday. I was able to go with his class and help maintain order among 17 three and four year olds. We had a great time. To no ones surprise Will was more interested in the watering hoses than the turkeys and rabbits. The picture above is Will with his preschool buddies Bryon and Josh on a horse-drawn wagon. Will and I had a nice time spending time one-on -one with each other.

Our high chair can move up and down (it's amazing). One day I slid it down as far and it would go and Emmie played with Jason for more than a half hour while I did some house work. It was wonderful. Jason got to play Barbies with his sister. I am sure that he had a great time, Emmie did. Will and Emmie are awesome with Jason. They are big helpers and keep him entertained. Occasionally they fight over him and yell at each other "No, my baby." But in the end we have a happy family.

One night this past week or so we ate green and pink pancakes for dinner. Everyone should try it, just a little food coloring in the batter. It works wonders and the kids love it. Just make sure you use the pizza cutter for your colored pancakes too.

Will and Jason both got hair cuts -or should I say a buzz. It doesn't matter what kind of hair they have they still are cute as ever. Think they are brothers or what?

John took Will fishing to Strawberry with Uncle Brandan and Cole. This was the first time that Will got to go on a "boy" fishing trip. Luck him. Here is Will's fish that he caught. Dad had to help him reel it in but he did the rest by himself. Will had so much fun and completely wore himself out. He had two naps and still went to bed by 9:00. John is an awesome dad. I think that John was just as excited as Will was.
