Picture Perfect Play Date

What a great way to end what was already a lovely weekend, than to host two of Tas and Chance's favorite friends - Maddie and Sophie and their Mom's on a beautiful, sunny, 63 degree day.

The kids played for hours in the sandbox and on the swingset. They enjoyed wagon rides and rides on the trykes. A good time was had by all. They enjoyed snacks at their picnic table and the we all had lunch. This has been a fun weekend and one of great quality time. It is interesting how well behaved the boys were this weekend. I believe it is because they had lots of love from me and others around them.

The next few weeks will be ones of big change for our punkins. Chance goes on his insulin pump on March 3rd. I am to understand that this will feel a lot like when Chance was first diagnosed. We'll need to figure things out all over again, but should end up in a much better place. Heath and I have lots to learn over the next week.

The boys will also transition into their next class with their new teachers in the 2 year old room.

We all went to visit the class last week. It is really awesome. There are lots of fun activities for the kids with different stations - including housekeeping, legos, reading, puzzles, and arts and crafts. There are also lounge chairs and sofas. Lots of structure too including that they have to put away their current toy to play with another one. There is a potty in the room. While we were there, Tas wanted to use the potty. We will implement much of this philosophy at home.

We are on the doorstep of enormous change and are embracing it wholeheartedly.
