Bus Ride

Today we went on a bus ride with Jonah's pre-school class.   This field trip kept getting postponed because of bad weather, so he has been looking forward to this for a while.  Here he is with his friend Lincoln.  These two met in pre-school and have really hit it off.  It is probably because they both have endless energy, they are a good match!
Wyatt got to tag along with us too.  We had to walk a little ways to the bus stop so I used the Bjorn for Wyatt.  The Bjorn has been a lifesaver for us.  I have used it a ton with Wyatt.  I wanted one with my other kids, but we never bought one because they were so expensive.  I found a great deal on one before I was  pregnant with Wyatt and I have loved having it. 
After the bus ride the kids played at the park for a while.  The swings are always a favorite. Jonah loves pre-school.  I'm really glad we decided to put him in.  I think he loves feeling like a big kid and having his own thing.  There was this cute little girl in his class that kept talking to Jonah from few seats in front of us and Jonah would yell, "are you crazy," in a weird voice and she would laugh.  Jonah said he always says it to her because it makes her laugh.  He does love to make people laugh. 
Here is Wyatt's, "I'm disobeying so I better be cute smile."  I kept telling him not to touch the cars and he just laughs and does it anyway.  It is so great to be respected!
Wyatt had fun playing at the park.  He loves the freedom to roam around and touch whatever he wants.
The kids all got a croupy virus that was going around.  Caitlyn started it off and last week the boys got it.  Caitlyn ended up getting an ear infection and still has a cough that won't seem to go away.  She cried last week when I said she couldn't go to school one day.  What a relief to have her crying because she wants to go to school instead of crying because she doesn't want to go!  Wyatt had to go to instacare and get a steroid because he was having a hard time breathing.  I felt bad because I didn't think he was that bad, but when I was talking to my mom on the phone she could hear Wyatt in the back ground and told me to get him in.  Whoops, thanks mom!  She was a lifesaver and took the other two so I didn't have to take them all to the doctor.
Caitlyn had fun going to her friends birthday party Friday night.  She was so excited when I finally told her about it.  It was a surprise party for her friend Grace.  I didn't dare tell her about it until right before so she wouldn't spill the beans.  They went in their pajamas and watched a movie and played.  Caitlyn loved it and was really excited that she got to stay out late.  My friend brought her home around 10 PM.  It was a little strange to be waiting up for my daughter to get home!  She is in love with the crown she made and has been taking it everywhere.
Last weekend we went to a party at our gym.  They do a little members only party once in a while and the kids had a great time last time.  Keith had to work so I tagged along with some friends.  I didn't even bring my camera because I was so sick of blogging and I knew I had Jonah's party the next day so I didn't even want to mess with pictures!  I take way too many pictures!  Well of course Wyatt is hugging my leg and I wanted a picture of it.  Luckily Emilee snapped some for me.  They are way better than we would have got, so thanks Emilee!
Wyatt has started hugging my leg all the time.  I will be doing things in the house while he is playing and he will come find me and hug my leg and then go off and play again.  I love it.  At one point he wasn't looking and hugged the lady behind me, he was a little shocked when he looked up.  The kids had a lot of fun that night.  They gave out passes to get ten people in for free so tomorrow we are going swimming with my sisters, mom and all of my nieces and nephews.  The kids are so excited.  It will be a great start to the UEA weekend!
