Preschool Prepping

We have been having such an Awesome Summer
 and although I truly love Fall I'm kinda a little bummed that Summer is
 coming to an end:(  Hot Summer but, Oh, so Fun!

 This week we decided to start our transition into new routines to prepare for Beau's first year of Preschool. We have always been a sleep in Family so this is going to be the hardest part for us.

  Lucas still not really sleeping through the night making Rise and Shine especially hard on Mama! Getting so excited for Beau but, also a little sad that the time is here. Last year after having Lu we decided not to enroll Beau at 3 and still feel very good about the decision but, he is ready and so are we! He is going to Rock Preschool and I am going to dive into a whole new Mama Role which is only freaking me out a little. Next Monday is Parents night at the School so Grandma is lined up to watch the Boys... We are turning it into a date night with a few drinks after in Celebration of this New Adventure/Milestone!
I have been looking back on his Pictures and trying hard to really remember these moments,
I just can't believe he's 4 sleeps in a Big Boy Bed, Potty Trained , Eats Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner and always asks "may I be excused please" after every meal:) Helps me with little Brother, Swimming, Playing, and Curious about Everything! My sweet little Beau who made me a Mama has taught me so much about life is starting his first of many years of School.
Just a few things this week... we have been getting up and dressed right away, breakfast, brush teeth and out the door somewhere just to get into the groove! Scott has been really helpful in taking them somewhere while I clean, today he took them to Our Library for story time and books while I enjoyed a good cleaning Sesh and Shower! Then Lunch earlier by an hour so Lucas can be down by 1 for a 2 hour nap hopefully! So far so good. Naps for Beau are long gone so during Lu's naps we have started doing activity books or leapster or a show/quiet time. As soon as it cools down we will start afternoon walks up to the business district for a snack or park outing.





So we are all getting really excited about School! Count down is on:) Trying to pack just a 
little more Summer in before FALL! This week Swimming, Pogo Playing, Big Cousin Birthday Partying and maybe a Zoo trip or two!
Yesterday's Puddle jumping adventure with Papa! Mama did a drive by :)
