WEEK IN REVIEW

Saturday was our first (probably of many) classmate birthday parties that we (adults) will have to enjoy (endure). It is confirmed that I have been blessed with well behaving (in public :) ) children. It was a party at a bowling alley. The boys decided that body surfing across the bowling lanes and putting their faces into the ball return and jumping in front of others trying to bowl and throw their ball down first ... were all great ideas. **** Note: all children had a parent there*** Madeline had a blast of course ;)
Monday was a momentous occasion for Madeline. She had her very first official dental cleaning and exam!! She apparently was a very good patient for the hygienist, Illa. Hooray!! We asked Meredith if she would like her teeth cleaned and she emphatically said, "no!". We did coerce her into sitting in a chair for a ride. The both came home with a bag full of goodies which thrills them. They particularly liked the tattoos.
The shed has arrived! It has yet to be filled due to the crappy weather, but we have somewhere to put the tractor. YAY!! I am happy.
Here is a photo of Madeline in her fire man hat. The firefighters came to preschool on Wednesday to show off their truck and teach them the standard, "stop, drop, and roll".
Today Madeline practically had a private swim lesson since some of the boys didn't show. She was taken to the deep end. Madeline actually jumped in with no help and swam to the ladder!! She has improved tremendously from a year ago.

I think the key is parents, because all boys don't act like that--at least my 2 didn't and I don't remember many of their friends acting like that with parents around.
