'Super' Picnic

Well, we're feeling good enough to venture out of the house as of yesterday. We had soccer in the morning and then we went over to the gym for some workout time. It was nice enough in the afternoon for us to play outside for a little while, although Ryan was covered in mud by the time he came in. So our days have gotten busier and happier! Of course, I'm always happier when we're not sitting here staring at each other!

Today, we went to church and then to the open house at our church's school to check out the preschool. We were pretty happy with it, except for the time - 11:30 - 2:30 for 3 year olds. Kind of bad timing since it's in the middle of lunch and naptime for us. We still have another to check out this week though. We played outside again today with another muddy day. Then we had our own Super Bowl Picnic in the living room. This was special, because we don't allow Ryan (or ourselved when he's around) to eat in the living room. We bought Subway, had a bowl of chips and a bowl of apple slices and had our own little picnic. It was fun, although for some reason Ryan kept wanting to lay down and eat his food. He also had trouble sitting still, which caused him to kneel on his food a lot and knock the bowls over. Eventually, I had to wrap it up because he was starting to figit a little too much. But, overall, I think Ryan thought it was a cool idea.

We're pretty busy for the next two days, so I'm looking forward to them going quickly - especially since Kris will be home on Tuesday. Tomorrow is Ryan's evaluation for First Steps and I have a doctor's appointment on Tuesday (the one with the awful orange drink!). So I'll update when we get some results from those days!

Oh - and I guess congrats to the Giants. I'm pretty disappointed that the Patriots lost, Kris is in limbo. Not sure if he should be happy for Eli or upset that we didn't get to see a perfect season.

I agree, the timing on that preschool is really bad for three year olds! That's really odd. I'm sure he'd adjust though. Hope you can settle on something soon. How is the potty training going?

Haven't started, but Ryan has been telling me if he's dirty (finally). So that's a step in the right direction!
