Mother's Day :: by Austin

I had lots of fun stuff waiting for me yesterday when I picked Austin up from daycare.

The first was this tea pot with "Tea for Two"

"A cup of tea for Mommy and me"

The tea pot was in this cute little envelope decorated by Austin


This cute little thing was in his back pack from school



The saying reads:


"My dirty little fingerprints I've left on every wall"
"And on the drawers and tabletops, I've really marked them all"
"But here are some that won't rub off; I'm giving them to you"
"Because I'm thankful to have a mom that's just like you!"


"Happy Mother's Day"


"I love you!"


This is one of my favorite things about being a Mom. I love sweet little hand made things like this!

I is for Inch Worm

Look how scary he made it!

Please look past the dorito faces. When Daddy's away, they get whatever they want for dinner (unless it's something totally outrageous)! Last night it happened to be chicken nuggets and doritos!

Hats of the alphabet, con't

I was surprised yesterday when Austin's next hat of the alphabet was in his backpack.

D is for Dinosaur

And of course Abigail had to get in there for a picture. They were both saying "Cheese" for this picture. They're so goofy!

What's your guess for the letter E? The only thing that comes to my mind at the moment is elephant. Or maybe egg?

Hats of the alphabet

Remember the alligator hat? It appears as though Austin is making a hat for each letter of the alphabet. I've decided to take a picture of him wearing each of the hats he brings home on Friday's.

A is for Alligator

B is for Bee

C is for Cactus

Anybody want to guess what kind of hat he's going to come home with for the letter D?

My little alligators

Austin came home with an alligator hat he made at school on Friday. Of course Abigail wanted to wear it, so we whipped one up for her really quick. Austin kept saying he was the Momma alligator and Abigail was his baby!

Day 2

Day 2 turned out to be a better day for Mommy, but not so much for Austin. I walked him into school this morning and he didn't want to let go of me. We walked into school with some of our friends where the boys then posed for a picture.

I also had Austin pose by his class list, but you see how well that turned out!

The teacher mentioned this morning that Austin had an excellent day yesterday. She said he even received a compliment from a 4th grade teacher about how well he was walking in the hallway.

He must have had a good day again today, he came home with a blue color listed on his discipline chart!

Blue = Excellent behavior

I expect him to come home with blue on his discipline chart every day, we'll see how well that goes.

I'll leave you with some Pre-K art Austin brought home today:
