Jonas' Preschool Graduation

Today our little Jonas man graduated from Little Sprouts Preschool.  I am still in awe at how quickly the years have flown and our little baby is now an almost 5 year old.   We snapped a few pictures before graduation.  One with the flower that he took to his teacher, Miss Angie.

Love that nose crinkle!

And our traditional last day of school "I did it!" photo.

 The program was short and sweet. The children led us in the Pledge of Allegiance, sang some songs about the concepts they had learned that year, and then had their graduation ceremony.

Getting his diploma!

One last photo with Miss Angie!

  As you can tell Jonas was one of only two boys in the class.  After graduation, I had almost all of the girls' mothers come up to me and tell me that their daughter had a crush on Jonas. In fact two of the girls had told their parents he was their "partner boyfriend".  What can I say, the kid is a cutie.

Preschool Exchange

This past school year Mason participated in a Preschool Exchange with some other kids in our ward.  Since the kids were really young (Mason and one other girl were still two when we started) it was pretty laid back.  We worked on letters, numbers, and handwriting, but the main goal was to let the kids socialize and learn to follow directions. We rotated houses so I only had to teach every fifth week. I really loved having these little ones in my home and Jonas was always so excited when it was my turn to teach because he got "extra preschool" those weeks. Its been a little crazy running Mason to school on Mon/Wed and Jonas had preschool on Tues/Thurs. Friday has been our only day where we can just hang out and do what we want!

Last week one of the other mothers, Mikki, took pictures for us.  She has her own photography business and is super talented.  I am hoping to get her to do Carson's baptism pictures.

In addition to pictures of the kids in the exchange, she offered to do sibling pictures.  I really regret that I didn't pull Carson out of school to get his picture done.  It would have been nice to have had all new pictures for my wall! Here are my handsome men.

 I love this look on Porter's face!  It is just soooo typically him, with this concerned/questioning look.
