Mag's Pie

We visited Nana and Papa tonight since we needed to do some shopping in the city. Maggie requested an apple pie (I'm sure it's no coincidence their theme in school right now is apples) and this is what Nana made for her!

Book Fair Photos

Last week was also our school's book fair. There were different activities all week long. One day, Maggie and I went to a biscuits and gravy breakfast and another day, Clifford even came to visit her class!

Delicious!!

High five for Clifford!

Grandparent's Day

As promised, here are some photos from Grandparent's Day in Maggie's class last week:

Latest Preschool Update

Maggie has still had a couple rough patches at school and when she's gone to Baily's, but they are definitely not as severe! She cried a little at school yesterday. Baily said she teared up when she started walking out to her, but as soon as Baily pulled out the lollipop, Maggie dried it right up!! (Baily said she'd give Maggie a lollipop each day she didn't cry and Rob and I are all for using whatever works!!) Today, not a tear was shed at school or at Baily's!!!! Needless to say, she got another lollipop from Baily and a double high five from Mommy!

On another note, she is sharing more and more about her day when I ask her now, too. I used to have to initiate all of it with the questions, etc. Now, I still have to ask some questions, but she will actually volunteer some of her own information, too!! She's also remembering and naming some of her classmates. Before, she would say she didn't remember their names. She even sang a portion of one of the songs they learned in class with me yesterday! Tomorrow is Grandparent's Day in her classroom and she is very excited!

Rob's Grandpa

Rob's grandpa took a turn for the worse last week and passed away on Wednesday. We drove up to Marysville for the services this past weekend. We were there Sat., Sun., and Mon. It was a fast, emotionally tiring visit, but we were glad to have some time with Rob's family. Maggie absolutely loved all the outside playtime with the other great grandchildren, especially her cousin, Nathan! It reminded me of when I was a child and how all the grandkids would go off and play all day! It was great to see everyone and was very heartwarming to see everyone come together to celebrate such a great man.
