Almost a Kindergartner...sort of...

Well I realize there are a good 6 months before our sweet lil lady Linnea starts kindergarten but we had her pre kindergarten screening a few weeks ago and she did awesome! She is ready for kindergarten but will definitely enjoy her final months of preschool. We are so proud of her and everything she knows and the things she can do amaze us everyday. Some things such as buttoning her sweaters, starting her zipper, opening yogurt and cheesesticks she just did on her own. I dont think many people if anyone worked on that with her. One day she came out of her room and her sweater was buttoned! Just goes to show how observant lil ones are. I was shocked. It doesn't seem like a big deal to us but to her this is huge and a big confidence booster :) We should hear soon about what school she got into...we are going to switch to the public school system and hoping for St. Anthony Park with our neighbors :) We visited it and it felt right and Linnea seemed to fit right in. We went to the library after her screening and then I treated her to a happy meal and shamrock shake from McDonald's:

this was also a treat for me since I love them as well. I dont care how bad they are for me since its a rare occassion ;)


And below are some random fun pictures from our past weeks:


Harper LOVES bathtime. She hears the words lets go upstairs for a bath and she puts it into full speed crawl directly towards the steps. She also does this full speed crawl toward her high chair when she hears anything about eating. Smart girl :)


We took advantage of one of the warmer days and took a walk and jumped in puddles (above). Below we have warmer coats on so it must have been colder.

loves to help push lil sis.
she hates getting her toe nails clipped.

 she LOVES to feed herself with fingers or a spoon...

watching 101 Dalmations...Linnea was not a fan of Cruella Da Vil but survived the whole movie anyways and really liked the puppies :)


Harper enjoys sitting in the little rocking chair...she works so hard to crawl into it and then either sings, yells, looks at books or just rocks in it which are all fine. But she does occassionally stand in it and then proceeds to try to crawl into Linnea's bed from it...she is so much more adventurous than Linnea ever was or is. She also likes to wake up big sis by hitting the bed. Not so sure Linnea likes this. Thank goodness its not a daily thing as I usually have to wake both of them up. Speaking of waking up...morning will be here soon. I better hit the hay. Dont mind the mess in the rocking chair picture ;) Ive been messy for 34 years...nothing has really changed...
