Friday fun

Highlights from today:

*Right now, Daddy is in the backyard with our new babysitter, Katelyn. We are trying her on for the first time today and she seems like a good fit for us. But poor girl...I hear Daddy encouraging Jake to pee on a tree, with Isaac cheering him on, shouting "Emergency! Emergency!" Oh well. She seems tomboy enough to handle us.

*Isaac had another great day at preschool. He is so excited to go, and excited to be there. No tears, no fussing whatsoever. Next week is Safety Week. One of the dads is a cop, and he is coming over one day to let all the kids climb around in his patrol car. I love our school.

*There are two new kids in Isaac's class, and they are really nice. The bonus for me is that one of the kids is the daughter of the freelance writer who interviewed me long long ago for a mommy-blogging article. This daughter was also in Isaac's Tot Lot this summer, but the drop-off and pick-up there was kind of crazy and hurried and I never got a chance to chat with her mom. Today I really did, and she is SO COOL. So I get to say that *I* made a new friend in preschool today.

*I was looking forward to having some special Jake time while Isaac was in preschool. We had plans to ride his trike to the park. But at the last minute, out of nowhere, Jake developed an uncontrollable craving for Froot Loops. Since we needed to go grocery shopping anyway, we got to kill two birds with one stone. And I saved $14 from clipped coupons, a personal best. But next time! Next time we shall have our Mommy - Jakey time. I think I say that more than I should.
