Pumpkin Patch with Preschool

We went with Mrs. Andrea's preschool class to Underwood Family Farms.  It was so fun to be on our first school outing. Rhett had a great time with his preschool friends.

T-R-O-U-B-L-E!

We have a fuzzy jar. They are little pom poms we put in a jar when Rhett does something good or talks nicely with out whining etc. When he does something not so great we take one out. When he fills the fuzzy jar, he gets a treat. We are currently working on a trip to Chuck E. Cheese. Let's just say, it's going to be a while!! These are some of our conversations we've had this week.

Me: Rhett, if you do that again, I am going to take a fuzzy out of the jar.
Rhett: 1 fuzzy or all of them?

Another similar conversation:
Me: Rhett if you stick your tongue out at me again you are going to get soap in your mouth.
Rhett: Do I get a drink after the soap?

And lastly:
We were watching Toy Story. Rhett is very good at correctly anyone when bad words are used such as: stupid, idiot, freakin' etc.
Rhett: Mom, Woody said Stupid.
Me: Yes, he did. That isn't right. Woody shouldn't say that.
Rhett: Well, he can when his Mom and Dad aren't around.

Clearly testing his limits. I want to cry sometimes! I am pretty sure I am in for it! I so wish his Dad was home during the day to deal with this stuff sometimes!

First Day of Preschool

Rhett started preschool this year. He had been talking about it for months and was so excited but the morning of told me he didn't want to go. We talked about it and he said he was nervous. We told him that was okay and he would have a great time! Mrs. Andrea welcomed him with a big hug and told him how excited she was for him to come to school. He had a great day!

Family Beach Day

We made an additional beach trip this week so Dad could join us. Gary ( Randy's brother) and his family came with us. We enjoyed the afternoon at the beach and then had dinner at Padaro Grill, a yummy place right on the beach.
The way the tide washed the sand in we were able to dig this cool tunnel for the kids. By "we" I mean Joni and I started it but Randy and Gary did most of the work! :)

Beach Days

Every Wednesday in the summer is Beach Day at Carpinteria Beach. We all meet and hang out and the kids play all day! Rhett and Halle were best buds at the beach this year! They played together constantly and if they weren't together they were asking where the other one was. They ran from the waves, dug, played games and laid on the beach and talked. It was my favorite thing to watch them interact and become friends. We LOVE Beach day!!!
