Preschool Graduation and a budding chef...

Jaxson graduated from preschool over labor day weekend. The program was short and sweet - the kids had us cracking up with their dance moves. He was SO sad when he realized he really doesn't get to go back to preschool anymore. I could just see the wheels turning in his head and the realization dawn on his face that he really was done going there. The kid loves school! We were going to wait another year to start him in Kindergarten since he has an end of the summer birthday, but he's so ready we just can't stand to hold him back. He will be the kid waving "Bye mom!" without a backward glance on the first day. And I will be the one crying! Except that probably I'll be chasing Wyatt down the street or something and won't have time to cry :). Silver lining of having a kid with a LOT of energy, right?

Bustin' a move...

The best preschool teacher ever - we love you Miss Lindsay!!!

(look at that face - he is for sure a keeper)

Moving right along, what do you think this is a picture of? If you are thinking it looks like a magnet that has been cooked in the microwave (a METAL magnet, btw), you are RIGHT. Something you never want to hear first thing in the morning from your four-year-old? (yelling, while running down the hall to our room) "Wyatt's cooking a magnet in the microwave!!!" And so he was. Awesome.

And if you are thinking he didn't know EXACTLY what he was doing, you are WRONG. I heard him later on that day pretend talking on my cell phone and he said (and I quote):

"The magnet.

I cook it.

It hot."

What do you think goes on inside that little head?
