First Day of Preschool

Monday was Ian's first day of preschool and he did very well. He seemed to really enjoy his first day and was excited to tell us all about it.

I stayed by the door for a few minutes after dropping him off and saying goodbye and I saw him playing and talking to the other kids. I left after making sure he was ok, and teared up as I walked to my car.

He's growing up so fast. Anyway, check out our cute preschooler.

Fun in the Sun!

We just recently got back from our family trip to Southern California. We stayed in a hotel in downtown L.A. and were able tour a few tourist spots while there.

We saw the walk of fame and hollywood and were part of the audience for a TLC TV show while there - Ten Years Younger. We might be on TV. And that's a big might.

Disneyland was cool. Even though Ian kept saying the rides were a little scary, he was a good sport and I could tell he had fun.


The beaches were beautiful and the weather was warm. That was our favorite part. We went to Manhattan Beach. Dustin and I took turns swimming (AKA getting clobbered by the waves) while the other one played with Ian in the sand. Only towards the end did Ian warm up to the water.

Unfortunately the swimming suit I had ordered online didn't arrive in time for our trip :( I got it at www.modbecatalog.com - and they sell very modest but stylist swimming suits. Lo and behold It was sitting just outside the door when we got home. Oh well, it's very cute and fits great... there's always next year :)

We had to get in one last trip before summer bade us adieu!
