School

Tate made it the whole three hours at preschool today. He looked pretty overwhelmed and tired when I picked him up. He told me all about it. There was a boy who hit him in the face and had to sit in time out. They sang a school bus song and a snowman song. He also said you have to be quiet when you get your book bag because people are working. Oh and snowman don't like pants but kids do. I am proud of him!  He found some batman pjs in his drawer and was beyond excited to wear them to bed. I killed my time today by eating pancakes at McDonald's and copying all my random recipes shoved in the cabinet onto recipe cards. 

Helper

Tate helped me go through a tub of baby blankets today. He had fun jumping on the pile. This morning he did not want to go to daycare. He said "Mom, I am so sick" and then faked coughed. He went to daycare despite his "illness".

Preschool

Tate started 2.5 year old preschool today. It will be 3 hours twice a week. He was excited and had no problem telling me bye. I got a call from the school about 30 minutes before dismissal and they said Tate refused to wear a shirt for art time and wouldn't stop crying. So I went and picked him up. He looked so tired. He was also starving. He must not have eaten any of the breakfast served at school. He inhaled an entire happy meal, fruit snacks and granola bar after school. He also took a 3 hour nap. It was such a big day for him and I am proud of him.  We looked like fabulous parents today sending Tate to school with a bruised, puffy eye!  He hit it on the back of the recliner last night. I couldn't get a good picture of it today. 

Super Hero

My super hero was flying by too quickly for a good picture. Tate had a good day. He played well with Brett today so I got the kitchen cabinets cleaned out and organized. 

Gingerbread

Tate and I made gingerbread this morning. He was very into it. He mixed it with his hands as I kept adding ingredients. His favorite part was making the hard sauce for the top. This afternoon Tate freaked out when I tried to put him down for a nap. He told me his bed was spooky and the dark was scary. He cried and cried. The snow storm moved in this evening. It is snowing and blowing like crazy. 

Doctor

I had to wave the white flag today and get some antibiotics for a sinus infection. Luckily my mom could watch Tate last minute so I didn't have to take him. The pharmacy said my insurance policy expired but it turns out the company had a computer problem and some of the policies didn't update with the new year. Tate was kind of on a path of mass destruction today am and was into everything. 

2015

I spent the first day of the year in bed. I can't get rid of my cold. Brett and Tate played hard today.
