Peyton starts Preschool

We had a big week at our house. Peyton started his first week of preschool. This was a huge decision for our family. We have been more than happy with the preschool program that our daycare lady has done with Peyton for the last couple of years but we were concerned that Peyton needed to be part of a larger group of kids his own age a couple days a week. It has taken some schedule changes for all of us but it has been well worth it. He absolutely LOVES his new school. Luckily it is in our neighborhood so everytime we drive by Peyton reminds us "that is my school."



Here is his first offical day on Monday, March 7th.


He is also very proud of his Lightning McQueen backpack that Grandpa Mike and Jeannie gave him. He now has an official use for it two days a week.

MN Zoo

Last Sunday we decided on a spur of the moment day trip to the MN Zoo. The boys had an absolute blast. We were even lucky enough to have the Asleson girls join us for a couple of hours. They all loved running through the zoo. We are looking forward to spring when we can go and actually spend some time outdoors.




After the girls left we spent the majority of the afternoon with the aquatic life. The boys loved dipping their hands in the water and getting a close up look at the HUGE fish.

Monkey Jump

We spent a Saturday at the House of Bounce celebrating cousin Maile's 4th birthday. Peyton loves the place, but is a little apprehensive about the "BIG SLIDES". When he got in line to do the Monkey Jump I was sure that he would not go through with it. But, he did and had a blast.



He also practiced his swing at the "batting cage". We are getting ready for T- Ball!
