Turning Three

What is it about turning three?  Here is a list of stuff Raleigh did today to prove he is still "terrible" in his two's, not quite three yet!!
- Wiped his snotty nose on the carpet.
- Wiped his wet hands on the wall.
- Stuck a piece of red pepper from dinner up his nose.
- Screamed "NO!!" at Steve and I very deliberately.
- Threw a monkey stuffed animal at his brother.
- Taught his brother to bonk him in the head.

Its been a fun day, I guess you could say.  We also started Raleigh's "preschool" today (hm, wonder if he's rebelling??  It was HIS dang idea!!).  We read three books, sing three songs, color three pages, and do three chores and then he can watch a show and get a sticker for his calendar.  He seems to like it and want to do it but I'm thinking its making his brain work to much and think of things like "oh I'm going to wipe my nose on the carpet to save tissue paper, GENIUS!".  Sigh, gotta love kids.

PS You know its 2011 when your three year old holds up a birthday card to his ear as soon as he opens it and is surprised that it doesn't play music.  Ridiculous!

PPS Trenty kinda sorta said his first word-ish today.... "Uh oh!"

PPPS Pinterest is dangerously addictive, like facebook + etsy + blogging + twitter addictive. Also, I love it.

His b-day is the 29th right? So you need the best mom ever award. That is so fun you are doing preschool. Preschool sure is making him smart...I can see the logic of useing the carpet instead of a tissues. Lol! What a sweety!
