Braxton has been going to pre-school this year.  He goes on Tuesday-Thursday 9:00am - 11:15 am.  Trent loves to go with me to pick him up.  He likes to jump in the snow and try to knock over Mrs. Finnegan's decorations out front.  Braxton made us a Christmas card and ornament at pre-school, and was so excited to give it to us all wrapped beautifully.  He has show-and-tell every Tuesday that corresponds with a certain letter of the alphabet (he brought his Batman motorcycle on "M" day).  He does wonderful projects everyday with letters, numbers, and art.  He has a backpack full of his "treasures."  Don't even try to throw any of it away!

Trent is definitely full of energy!!  He never stops all day except for his nap at noon and bedtime at 8pm.  Other than that- you'd better be watching or he's jumping off the refrigerator.  He loves vitamins, too- and sometimes tries to eat the whole bottle (yes, sometimes he can unscrew the child-proof lids).  Other child-proof items that don't stop him: child-proof doorknobs, refrigerator locks, gates, etc.  He's too smart for those.  He's very curious and likes to "take things apart quickly"-  okay he likes to break things!  It's so fun to see what will happen if you throw something against the wall, like food, play dough, picture frames...  Trent also likes to "season things."  He climbed up onto the counter got the cinnamon, salt, and pepper and "seasoned" the kitchen.  We found cinnamon in the sugar and flour bins, as well as in the baking soda box- salt and pepper all over the floor and counters, including IN the picture frames!  We're not sure how he did that one.  But we love him so much!  And he is a very good eater (which is why he weighs about as much as his older brother.)
