Birthday at the Zoo

We celebrated Aurora's birthday with both sides of the family throughout the week before her birthday.  On her birthday, Matt and I took her and Adam to the zoo.  We had a wonderful time together and will need to make it a regular family outing.

First Field Trip

Adam is going to a great in-home preschool.  Just down the street from us, he attends class twice a week with 7 other kids.  The curriculum is organic, so each student help define the learning content based on their interests and their needs.  Adam loves going to preschool and a few weeks ago was his first field trip (Lowes and Pump It Up).  At Lowes, the kids picked one vegetable or herb plant and one flower plant to grow at home.
