The boys wasted no time getting our special visitors involved in their daily routine and activities, including the cute things, the naughty things, the funny things, and the sad things. Jacoby learned how to play "Go Fish" this weekend, so most of us are feeling fairly proficient at that game now. It was only fair because he didn't get to play when the adults were playing a fun card version of Scrabble. He was supposed to be in bed while we were playing but curious little eyes kept appearing at the top of the stairs to see what was going on that was so fun. He even moved the potty to the top of the stairs so he could watch while going potty "one more time"! (:
It was really hot this weekend, so we stayed close to the air conditioning but did get outside for walks and some backyard fun. Last night before bed, the boys broke out their guitars and played together. Watching Jacoby join in with his little guitar was one of the highlights of the weekend for Mommy.
Granmanette came to see Jacoby play soccer on Saturday. We were so proud of him and how he followed directions and did everything the coach asked him to do. We can already tell that he's starting to master some of the skills they've been practicing.
Both boys started their new classes this week. Jacoby was very excited about his new room, and his teachers did a fabulous job turning it into a cozy preschool room. He started the day off by falling into the potty...yes, that's right. His new classroom has a full-sized potty which is a bit of a change from his last classroom. Anyways, I'll spare you most of the details but just say that we're practicing new potty skills at home so that we're better prepared for the big potty at school.
Morgan was a little more tentative than I expected when we walked into his class. But we spent some time looking at the new toys and pretty soon he and his friend T. were busy exploring together. I can't believe they've been at the school for a year now. I was a weepy mess saying goodbye to Morgan's teachers last week even though we'll still see them around the school. They did a wonderful job taking care of our little one over the past year.
Justin has a busy week ahead trying to get caught up on reading. He started teaching Greek I last week and has about 9 students in the class. This will be the only Greek class most of these students will have so I think Justin feels compelled to make sure they all do well. We have a staff outing to a Rockies game this week, which has turned into a really fun annual tradition for us. I go to San Francisco next Monday for work. I'm looking forward to visiting for the first time while scoping out just the right place for our board meeting next spring.
