Jackson made it through his first week in his new class. The teachers are great! They expect the kids to be more independent, such as sending them on their own to the bathroom (in the classroom) with the teacher there by to help if needed. We soon learned that Jackson was going in there by himself, taking off his diaper, and then washing his hands - without putting on a new one. So funny! So, he's been wearing big boy underwear over his pullups. I think Ms. Angelique, Ms. Kathryn, and Ms. Kiva will help us get rid of the pullups!
This week they were learning about teddy bears. Each child was supposed to bring one from home, and we realized that Jackson really only had the 1 teddy bear that Rob and Stacie got him when he was born. We decided that it was time to take Jackson to build-a-bear this weekend.
They had a really cute little story about what to do with the heart to make sure that the bear "nose" you:
At the washing station, Jackson was so focused on getting him clean. He made sure he spent plenty of time in the bath and did a great job combing the bear's fur.
We had planned to just do the bear, but then we found a Buzz Lightyear costume...and you know we can't resist that!
Meet George Lightyear (Buzz's big brother):
Jackson loves the Curious George books. We read at least a couple of stories each day. It amazes me how much he remembers what we read! This weekend, Jackson decided to read to us instead:
What a great reader Jackson is now! He can read to Papa now...even though there are still alot of pictures in his books to keep Papa's interest! We loved the his new George Lightyear bear. Of course you had to get that outfit! He's going to be a great friend for Jackson and Buzz and Woody! Thanks for these great pictur4es. We loved seeing them.
