First Day of School

It is official, my babies are all grown up!  This week they had their very first day of preschool.  Every morning when I drop them off at Patty's house, they beg me to go to school like Mason.  So we did a trial day to check out the school and see how the boys behaved.  I was expecting tears and lots of clinging to me and not letting me leave the classroom.  Well that did not happen at all!  They were a little shy for the first ten seconds until Noah discovered the puzzles on the shelf. The twins LOVE puzzles.  They both sat down at a table with a group of kids and worked on the puzzles. When I went to kiss them goodbye, they barely looked up and waved me off without even acknowledging me. No hugs, kisses, love, tears, or anything!  Naturally I cried when I got in the car.  I waited until lunch time to call and check in on them, yes I am "that" mom, and got the best report from their teacher, Ms. Keke.  She was surprised that they have never been in school before because they followed directions and were extremely well behaved, even Noah!  I am so proud of my boys.  This school has the coolest playground and that was their favorite part of the day.  My favorite part of the day was when the director sent me these pictures of my boys having fun.  Clearly these little guys are more than ready to start school in the fall.  Where did the time go?!

Not only was the playground awesome, but there were tons of bikes for them to play with too.

My sweet Dylan!

They were so proud of their masterpieces.  

The Ostrich Farm

Since my brother lives in Tucson, we try to make sure the kids get together every few weeks.  Today we decided to meet at the Ostrich Farm with my mom, cousin Nicole and her boys.  We had a total of 7 kids and 6 adults at this little stop off of the Interstate 10 just outside of Tucson.  To say the kids had fun would be an understatement.  They had a blast!  Besides running around and being silly, these boys fed goats, ostriches, ducks, rabbits, birds, and stingrays.  I would highly recommend this gem of a place to anyone that loves all kinds of animals.

Check out the goat photobombing our picture.

These boys will be best friends forever!

Sebastian and Indi are adorable!

Mason is so in love with Baby Henry!

This was definitely one of the weirdest contraptions.  The goats are placed up really high and you crank the wheel to move the food up the conveyor belt.  As strange as it is, the kids loved cranking that wheel.  

The bunnies were the cutest!

Nicole was definitely the bird whisperer!  

All of the boys were so brave with the birds.

I didn't even have food and this bird just wanted to hang out on my head, so the natural thing to do was to take a selfie.  LOL!

A Day at the Park

We spent our Saturday at Chaparral Park.  The weather in March is usually perfect for outdoor activities, but not this day.  It reached almost 100 degrees!  We couldn't believe how hot it was, but that didn't stop us from having fun.  Here are a few pictures from our adventure.

These boys are my world!

Noah did this pose all on his own.  He looks so grown up here!

Boys will be boys!

The boys had their very first ice cream truck experience.
