Goodbye Preschool

Mrs. Hyatt, Rylin, Mrs. Robinson
Rylin had her last day of Preschool on Tuesday. She has learned so much from being there. She has been sad about leaving friends and she asked me why her teachers can't come with her to Kindergarten. She has loved them and will really miss preschool, but she is finally starting to get excited for Kindergarten. She has really grown up from when she started attending preschool. I can't believe how may baby has turned into a little girl. Thanks to Mrs. Hyatt and Mrs. Robinson they have been wonderful teachers, helped prepare her for school, and have really loved our little girl.

We went to the Aquarium of the Pacific last weekend with Tyler Mom and Matt. We had a great time seeing all the animals and walking around by the beach. They have really cool aquariums and open areas to look at different sea animals. Thanks Mom and Dad for taking us.

Prego Rylin

My stomach has been growing and the girls are fascinated by it. They will sometimes even stick their baby dolls in their shirts (as they are trying to be like mommy). I went into their room to check on them before I went to bed, and this is how I found Rylin. She sleeps with a stuffed animal dog. I guess before she fell asleep she thought she would pretend to be pregnant and then she fell asleep that way. I was cracking up to walk in and find her with a big belly as she sleeps. It is so cute what they do.

Well with our zoo passes we can go to the Wild Animal Park too. Monday we headed out to Escondido and had a wonderful time. We went around on the train to see all the animals in the big open area. We saw a ton of animals running around the girls loved it (the animals were really active because it was cool in the morning). After seeing a lot of the animals we decided to go to the animal show. They came up and asked us to be a part of the show. It was a blast. We had to answer animal trivia questions and then they would bring out the animals. My girls (especially Jordyn) loved it because were so close to the animals as well as we getting to pet a couple (no pics of us in the show because there was no one else with us). I got a picture of our names on the stand and after the show. Later we went to the Larakeet aviary and bought some nectar to feed the birds. I was holding it when we waled through and the birds just jumped right on me. Jordyn was too little to feed them because they said you need to be careful of fingers and Rylin did not want to. We had to keep telling Jordyn not to try to stick her fingers in their face; she can't get enough of animals. Then we took them to the petting zoo. Rylin really wanted to go there she ended up not feeding them, but did pet them (she is getting so daring). The kids both love animals, but in different ways. I love seeing their unique personalities and how they do everything different, but still have the best time together. We had a great family day and wait wait to go back.
