Back to school

On Thursday Mommy helped out in Drew's preschool class. What a crazy day! It was really fun to see what Drew does in school, but Mommy would go crazy being there everyday. It was chaotic! Drew was the line leader for the day. He is so proud when he is a "star helper". They also celebrated his Birthday. He wore the crown the whole day. Last year he wouldn't even keep the crown on during school.

After school we went through the drive thru at McDonald's. The wonderful man who is always in the window called Drew by his name. It was written on his crown. Mommy asked Drew how the man knew Drew's name and Drew replied, "Because we come here so much?" Sad, but true.

Drew had his 4 year check up. He is 40 1/4 inches tall (50%) and 35 pounds (45%). Overall healthy. The nurse was impressed with his vision test because Drew would saw AN apple and A house. Apparently he used the correct form of "A" and "An" for the whole test. We have never talked about that so who knows where he learned it. They took blood and checked his cholesterol which was 168. Good news, since Mommy's has been high her whole life. Daddy's is OK.

Last night we went to the Mall of America to have "Bubble Gumps" for Drew's Birthday. They sang to him. We then went on a couple rides. Drew was mad because by the time we got to Lego land they were putting away the Lego's for the night. He kept saying,"I am not happy!"

Today Mommy and Daddy gave blood while Drew hung out with Mimi and Joey. Then we went to an open house at Otten Bros Nursery. We saw Santa. Drew asked for a packer garbage truck for himself and a new camera for Mommy. What a guy! We did some crafts and went on a horse drawn wagon ride. Drew is now napping.
