This week, I signed Noah up for preschool in the Fall at Kids Village. He is going to be in the "Little Sprout" group. I was surprised to find that spaces were already limited, so we were forced to do afternoon which I'm okay with. I think it will be nice for Noah to get out and socialize and play with other kids when the baby comes and he's cooped up in the house. Since he is so young, I felt bad leaving him so he will just go 2 days a week for a couple hours, but I'm hoping it gives me some time to play catch up if I can get him to school and the baby down for an afternoon nap. These scheduled breaks are going to be a lifesaver for me, and hopefully for Noah as well. They have a cooking class, science class, play time, reading time and music time. It's laid out like a village surrounding a tree house. Everything was so quaint and friendly, and I was surprised how new and clean everything was. Hope he likes it...
May is always a fun time of year with everything warming up and summer around the corner. It also is special because Rylee and Kale were both born this month, which means two birthday parties for Noah. Rylee's was the the Hogle Zoo and Noah loved it. I didn't realize that kids three and under were free so I'll be taking him more often since he had so much fun. His favorite animals were probably the elephants. There was a "Daddy," "Mommy," and "Baby Noah" elephant that were really active. Eating, splashing in the water and taking mud baths. He couldn't get enough of it. I was sort of let down by the tigers who just slept the whole time we were there. I swear this happens every time I go to the zoo. He also loved the turtles which surprised me because I realized how creepy turtles are when you stare at them for a long period of time. They started to look dead to me but they yet they still were moving, it freaked me ou...
Noah got to take a trip to Disneyland with Dad this past week courtesy of Grandma and Grandpa Brinton, while the girls stayed home. I was worried to travel with Isabella so young, so we had a nice relaxing weekend together while Noah had the time of his life. Noah was barely 42" and was able to go on pretty much any ride he would have wanted to so it was perfect timing. His favorites were Jumping Jellyfish, Toy Story and, of course, Mickey Mouse. He wasn't afraid of the characters at all, which surprised us a bit. It was the first time I think he really understood what it was to fly on a plane as was so excited to look out the window. He LOVED swimming in the pools at the hotel and Scott said he only cried one time the entire trip, when he wanted a pack of McQueen cars that he already had at home so Scott didn't buy them. It's fun was the kids get older to actually make all the work of doing something worth it. I'm sure we have many more t...
I've had this weird urge to see Ireland for a really long time now. I finally decided I was going to book it and talked three sisters (Kate, Karyn and Kami) and one SIL (Linh) into coming. I was shocked how easily it all came together and everyone was basically just up for some good old fashioned girl time. It seemed like a good trip to take without the kids since I knew it would just be a lot of driving and sight seeing which they would definitely not be that into. It was so fun just being able to be as carefree as you can be while driving around on the left side of the road. The flight getting there was an absolute fiasco since storm Stella decided to move in the day we were scheduled to arrive in JFK. Five scheduled flights later, Aer Lingus eventually rescheduled us out of Orlando after a day of being on the phones and we were able to get out and arrived just a few hours later than originally planned. We had a bunch of layovers but at ...
