preschool

Shawn has only been in preschool just a couple months now and I am so impressed on how much he is developmentally growing.He loves the song books so I decided to buy him one.He sits on the couch listening to the songs and turning the pages and I was totally surprised that he stays on the right page with the song.

He got one of his books out last week, it is a book with several squares on each page with a different picture in each square. I would ask him "where is the baby washing his hair"? WHAT? he pointed at the right photo !!! Ok, I had to try it again and again "Where is the baby sleeping"? Where is the baby crawling"? He knew them all.



He also know how to match. What a little smarty pants he is getting to be.
Now it is time to start learning some letters... ABCD is where I will begin.

meeting his daddy


Noverber 3rd 2011 was a very important day for shawn that I wanted to blog so he never forgets this day. Thanks to Facebook, he meet his daddy for the first time.

We drove to Idaho Falls and met at the mall. Yes, we were all nervous but it went great.
Shawns reaction to his dad?
I made sure to let his dad know ahead of time that he doesn't really connect with other and that is just what happened. It was more of a "watch" then interact.

We watched Shawn play on some toys at the mall then he was ready to leave and took off walking so we followed him. While I was in the restroom changing his diaper, his dad found a super ball on the floor.That was a great way for shawn and his dad to have a little interaction time. They threw the superball back and forth.
Then it was time for him to take off walking again so me and shawn's mom stayed behind and let his dad have some time. Byrons wife also came along with Byron's sister and her boyfriend.
I really enjoyed meeting all of them.
We went to dinner at a mexican resturant next door and when it was time to say our goodbye, we tried to have shawn give his dad a hug but shawn had another mission to accomplish (poop time) so the hug we have to wait until mext time
