Pre-School Orientation!

Create a collage

At Orientation Today Christopher shared his Spiderman Folder and how Spiderman can open and close his webs with his hands. He also shared his Francesco Bernolli car from Cars. When I asked him what country his car was from he said, "Cars Land!" That works!" said all the parents and teachers!

Other kids were talking about their cars, folders and dolls. Christopher is not shy. When one child could not name who was on his folder Christopher goes; "That's a Mariocart folder with: Mario, Luigi and Bowser on it!"

Teacher: "Can anyone tell me what color this bean bag is?"
Christopher: "Red!!!! It's Red!"
Mommy and Teachers "Yes, it's red great job Christopher!"

When it was time for him to share who came with him today that loves him;me his mom, he said; "Mommy!" But her name is Chelsea Burbidge Merkley

I love my smart boy!

His teachers said he was answering all the questions and behaving well! He was so outgoing and participating in the activities! I know he's going to love school!
It starts next week!

Love, Chelsea

Growing Up

                                                   Climbing on the rocks near Daybreak Lake

                                                          My big boy! He's almost 4!

                                         Laughing and hiding his face because I asked him to smile.

                                                 I told him not to look at me, so he did.
                                                         I love this picture.

"Hey Mommy, I stole your pennies they're on my thingy, you don't know how this timer goes! There's lots of  your money in there! I stole all your money and I'm going to keep it in here (a spykids safe) forever!" "I will give you some back, if you say please."- Christopher
 Boy, kids are fun when they're pretending.

He woke up this morning and exclaimed, " I growed while I was asleep I'm not 7 lbs and 60 lbs." Honey, you mean you grew in your sleep? "Yeah."
You're 30 pounds, but I'm not exactly sure how tall you are. You probably did grow in your sleep!

August 23-
Christopher is eating a corn dog:

"I need Ketchup and Mustard."Mommy puts her hand to her ear."Please and thank you."That's my boy.

Daddy- Great job going to the potty Christopher, I'm so proud of you!  
Christopher- "You did a great job too Daddy, I'm proud of you too!"
Christopher- "Look Mommy, I can Fly!" Jumps off one couch to another couch.
Mommy- You totally can, honey, that's great!
Christopher- "Look Mommy, I can Fly!" Jumps off one couch to another couch.
Mommy- You totally can, honey, that's great!


Okay it's time for you to have quiet time! "My wish is your command princess!" Bouts of laughter. Okay, ready for quiet time? "No, my wish is your command oh Princess!" Does he think he's a Jedi?

August 19- "Look Mom I'm a Princess! Here's my crown!" You're a Prince. "No I'm a Princess." "Mans can be princess too." Okay then.

August 17-
"Popcorn has ammonites living in it! And crabs. You see those, they're Ammonites and shells, and we're eating the Ammonites. The Ammonites get heated in the microwave and then they die. So we can eat them! Electricity!"

"Look Mom it's an enemy!" You mean anemone. "Yeah."

Time to get dressed for the day! You can get your clothes in the basement." But Mommy, it's scary and pooky down there?" Laughs from me. You mean spooky right? "Yeah."

August 16-
‎"Tummy Gummies are not like the juice we find at the Farmer's Market! This one is grape juice and apple juice and pear juice, actually."- Actually is his favorite word

"Uh oh! Those thingies are getting hot for sure!
I want one I want one!"
-My son referring to nuts, after they came out of the oven

Cranky

Christopher I need you to go to sleep so you won't be cranky and onry tomorrow.

"I will still be cranky and onry tomorrow even if I sleep."

At least he's honest, is what my husband replies to me. True Story.

Hope this made you smile.

Have a great weekend!
