Take a picture Mom!
As most of you know, Finn turned three in late July. He isn't technically doing any type of preschool this year, but I wanted him to do something to break away from me occasionally. We both need the break!! We are members at a Lifetime Fitness that has some awesome kids programs. I have really benefitted from their childcare, swimming lessons, and parents night out over the years that we have been members. Finn is doing a preschool adventure class every Thursday morning and last week was his first day. It was quite organized with circle time, yoga, story time at the public library next door, music, craft, snack, work, and play time. He thought it was so great and I did too!
We took our annual trip to the apple orchard/pumpkin patch over the weekend. While the pictures make it look awesome (and it was for the most part), it was not without some issues. Overall, I will say we had a fun time and I am thankful we were able to make the trip. The boys loved the new zip line, the jumping pillow, and the corn maze. It was all a nice break from our normal routine and a fun outing for all of us.
The weather was not the best this year which cut down on the crowds so that part was nice. The temperature dropped after we left the house and thankfully the boys had sweatshirts, but John and I froze (and it takes a lot for me to complain of being cold!). We have had a ton of rain recently and the ground is saturated. Thankfully, we have some older tennis shoes and we wore those, but we were all a muddy mess. Lastly, its "bee season" in MN. Around this time of year, we always have lots and lots of bees. Its hard to eat anything outside without getting stung. Aiden and John were stung this year. Thankfully, they both did o.k. Aiden was the one we were concerned about with all his allergies, but thankfully his sting was minor and he didn't react although we had the epic pen on hand.
