Maddox Goes to Preschool!

We have had another milestone today!

I can’t believe he is in preschool.  I remember when he was born thinking…oh we have a long time before we have to start worrying about looking for a preschool or even thinking about it.  Well, the day came very quickly.  I know you are wondering…did I cry?  Believe it or not…I didn’t, but my sweet little Maddox did!  That tore me up inside but I knew that he would be ok once he got settled in.  If I didn’t know that preschool will benefit him …I would have felt like a bad Mommy!

I can’t believe I actually had time to take a picture BEFORE we left!!!

His new back pack!

Gotta start em off with some new kicks!!  I’m sure those white shoe strings will be brown in a few weeks!!

Waiting in line to drop him off.  They didn’t want the parents walking them in…makes sense considering all the tears shed!!

I actually had some special time with this cutie!!  I think that is one of the very few times all summer I have had only Ryder!  The house was VERY quiet!!

Maddox had a great time after his rough start!  He says he wants to go back tomorrow! I know it wore him out because he took a 3 hour nap this afternoon!! He will go only on Thursdays and Fridays from 8:30 – 11:30 . Once I start back to work, I will take him and my Mom will pick him up!

Let the 2 year old preschool days begin!!

2 year and 2 month Dr. Appointment

On Wednesday, Maddox and Ryder had their 2 year and 2 month well visits.  It was a loooong visit.  We got there at 3:45 and left at 6:10, they were behind and then with 2 kids it took extra time.  Whew… we were worn out by the time we left!!

Maddox weighed in at 37.8 lbs and measured 37.5 inches…he is in the 95 percentile.  He had to get one shot.

Maddox and Ryder showing their Gamecock spirit!

Ryder weighed in at 12.11 lbs and is 23 inches long.  He is 75 percentile in weight, 53 percentile in height and his head was in the 35 percentile.  I think it is funny how Maddox has always topped the charts and Ryder is all over them! ha!

Maddox found his candy that we were going to give him after his shot!!  We had waited so long in the office we let him go ahead and have it!  Sour gummies!!

I’m so thankful that both of my boy are healthy and thriving!!  I have to remind myself when I’m feeling a little stressed from Maddox being a two year old…to still be thankful for those tantrums…he has healthy lungs to cry and the energy to pitch a fit #glasshalffull …ha!

Love My Boys!!
