Oliver is officially a Student

Oliver started his phase in week at pre-school yesterday.  We take him to class and sit in the side of the room so he feels safe - and he gets used to the teachers and other students.  Honestly by the looks of it he doesn’t even need the phase in period, as soon as he sees those kids and all those toys he is off and he doesn’t come back to our side until the teachers walk him over and say its time to go home.

He seems to be getting along with the kids really well, though at times he doesn’t like to share very much - or clean up after himself, but he will learn.  Some of the kids are potty training or potty trained - I am offering the first child that gets oliver to sit on the potty a crisp $100 - ok not really, but with luck they will help him catch on :)

Weekend Recap

Posted in Oliver, Play, School, Summer, Work by david on the August 27th, 2007

Friday after work we went to the 2007 Plymouth Kielbasa Festival (no joke).  Oliver had an ice cream for dinner, summer a perogi, and Kim and I each had a kielbasa.  We browsed around the stands, which was mostly just food - and then we entered a few tickets into a silent auction which benefits homeless pregnant women.

 Saturday we went to Knoebles again - this time for my annual company picnic.  It was a bit too hot honestly, but we had fun - got to see kids of the various people from work and got to ride a few rides.  This trip marks the first trip to Knoebles that Oliver actually enjoyed the rides and didn’t scream on every one we took him on - in fact he was screaming that he had to wait in line before he could get on the ride again.

Today is the start of a busy week, Oliver starts pre-school this week, and later this week I have to take my car to get an estimate on repairs.  A 16 year old kid rear ended me on Thursday.  Additionally I have to start the work required to get our dishwasher installed - and if there is any time left we still have all of the work scheduled for bathroom.
