i love it but it grosses me out

The infant rooms have there own little yard to play in and Bea loves it. She cries and maybe throws a teensy fit when it's time to come inside. It is nice and grassy and soft. I think Bea must be a little grossed out by the twigs texture though. These pictures are from the summer. You can see the toddler play area next door. Now that Bea and some of the other kids are getting older, they go in there to tear it up.

bea and the boys

It is hard to tell if Bea tags along with the boys, or gets right in there. I have a feeling she rallies them together. This is Brent, Malcom and Joey.

bea's teachers

Bea absolutely loves her teachers at daycare. In the picture above there is Miss Liz, Miss Jenny and Miss Druesilla (Sarah is missing). Friday was Miss Liz's last day, she has a great opportunity elsewhere. She will be greatly missed and her shoes will be hard to fill! Miss Liz was also the photographer at daycare and her departing gift to all of us was all of her pictures. She spent hours and hours organizing her pictures from when each kid started. So I am going to try and share as much as I can. I looked through them the other night and there were some chuckles and some tears. Thank you for everything Liz!

local christkindl market

The local Christkindl Market was this weekend and I had really been looked forward to it. We met some friends up there and had a great time. No one had a better time than Bea though. She her red sparkly shoes from her uncles and did not stop moving.

final birthday gift

We opened up Bea's last birthday gift this weekend, a blowup playhouse. The box made it seem like it was filled to the brim with balls. SO many that you can jump, and swim and bury yourself in them. It only came with 20 though. Bea loves it though and she uses it to stow other things like my shoes and all of her stuffed friends.
