Well I am a little behind on my blogging because we have been really busy! Last Friday I picked my mom up at the airport and we have been going non-stop since then. We have been having so much fun, the boys and I love having our Juee here. Brian has been in Chicago on business all week, so it is great to have company! 
On Thursdays during Nate's preschool class Benny and I signed up for an edible art class. Today was our first class. Benny's friends Maia and Jack are also in our class. Today we painted with colored yogurt, chocolate pudding, and whipped cream. We also created a masterpiece with colored glue. It took Ben a while to warm up to the artsy environment but once he did I think he enjoyed getting messy. I think his favorite part was eating the chocolate pudding, which made me a little nervous as it was served in a miracle grow green bucket (I did not partake in the dessert hehehe). I love to let kids get messy, it feels so freeing. I had to use restraint and not paint on my face...... 
Nate's first day of preschool was this morning! He was so excited! He has been talking about going to school for weeks. When we arrived he rushed in to play with all the fun toys they had set up for the kids. He seemed fine when I left, but the teachers said he got upset a few times during the class. He keep crying out to them "Please help me find my mama". They said they felt bad for him, but luckily he was easily distracted. He ran to greet me when I picked him up. He told me he had so much fun, so I think it went really well. 
On the other hand Ben's experience was a little more traumatic, although he was not enrolled in the preschool class. I let him play while Nate was getting settled and he grew rather fond of this fireman hat. He was very upset when I made him take it off and leave the classroom. hehehehe poor Benny!
I was so concerned with not being late this morning I forgot to take a picture of Nate with his backpack and lunchbox. The good news is we actually got to the class on time (miracle of miracles), bad news is you will have to wait for that picture until Thursday.
Nate and Ben had their first day of soccer this morning. I think they are really going to like it! They are taking the class with five of their little friends so that makes it even more fun. Today they ran some laps, kicked the ball in the goal, and worked on some other soccer skills. The names to these maneuvers escapes me........ because I never played soccer and because I was watching two boys run wild while trying to snap some good photos. Stay tuned for more soccer fun in the upcoming weeks! Happy Monday.

It's a Small World 
Nate requested I take a picture of Jessie and Woody...does this surprise anyone
Since I don't get to dress my boys in pink, I was a little obsessed with Chloe's princess hat :) 
Nate was very excited to pose with Lighting McQueen in California Adventure. 
Nate and Ben's ride of the week is Monsters Inc....we rode it four times this week ;)
The boy and I finished the trip watching the bugs life show. Nate loved it and thought the 3D effects were "really cool". Ben got a little scared, but he clapped at the end. 
Ben was not really having his most photogenic day;) hehe. 
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
