Cox Farms Fun

Mommy took me to Cox Farms for their Fall Festival. It was a lot of fun! They have hay rides and slides and a scary corn maze and awesome apple cider and at the end you get a pumpkin.
I am 40.5 inches tall now! And this is the awesome Wallaby sweater that my Grandma made for me.

Apple Festival!

The apples weren't all that great, but the hay was fun and I got to see my friend Jonathan!

Pony rides!

First Day of School!

Mrs F. and the Wizard. The Wizard loves Purple and hates Pink!

Sprayground!

Feeding the duckies and chickies!

I got a cool hat from Grandma and lots of new trains... and a penguin backpack so I can go to school! And lots and lots of new clothes and books.

Now I am THREE!

Now I am three years old, so I was big enough to get a pinata for my birthday party. I have just two words for you on this: Sugar. Rush.
And Momma made popsicles and fudgcicles for my party...

And I got some super awesome presents, too!

Uncle Rob gave me a plasma car. I am so fast that Mom can't even get a picture of me! And Uncle Rob gave me a stomp rocket. I can even aim it all by myself. I almost took out the plasma TV! Then Momma banished it to the sunroom. She's a real party pooper.

Lyle

My new crocodile. Grandma knitted him up for me when she was here. He matches my mittens that Grandma also knit up for me! She must love me or somethin'!

Catching up

Preschool here I come!

After much angst, Mommy chose a preschool for me!  In the fall I will be going to Faith Lutheran preschool.  It is a Reggio Emilia school and that sounds like a lot of fun even though I don't know a lot about it.  They have learning centers, though, and that beats sitting down in a circle for most of the day.  I don't sit still real well, so the teachers must understand little kids like me.  Here is the outside of my school.  I will be a Caterpillar.

Inside it is all bright and colorful and decorated with all of the art projects.

Aren't you jealous?  Don't you want to go to preschool too?

One of the four year old classes made a Rainforest in the class.  Cool, huh?

This is where I will get to eat lunch.  Mommy will have to pack me something good to eat every day but NO peanuts.  They're not allowed.  Every day Teacher will put my lunchmat at a different table so I get to meet all of the kids.

I get a hook in the hallway to hang my jacket and backpack.  Cool, huh?  I have to get a backpack!

And we do an art project every week with the art teacher.  She has a special name like Artelisteria or something.  But she takes kids three at a time into her studio to do a 30 minute project every week.  Sometimes I will get to take them home to show Mom, and sometimes they will be for the class project like this.

Last week they had a special Winter Festival.  Mom took me and I got my facepainted for the first time.  I got a lizard.  It felt funny but I sat really still.

Here are all the fun games that we played.
