This is what happens when a three year old discovers the camera on your phone.

day 228

I have 100's of photos of Sam's legs.  Luckily, mine made it into this photo too.  Ugh. 

Day 227 - School

Now that Sam is three, he is old enough to be evaluated for the speech program through the school district.  Yesterday was his first day of school.  He will go for 4 hours each morning all week.  
He loves it.  
I'm lonely.

day 227

I took his picture to document this momentous occasion.  Of course he wouldn't look at me.  Stinker.

He loves to wear his backpack and take his lunchbox.  They have breakfast every morning in the cafeteria.  Too bad he won't eat his food until I come to pick him up.  He immediately asks for his lunch box so he can have a snack.

We have a our first meeting next week to start to determine what program he will be in.  I'm really hoping he gets to stay in this class because we LOVE Ms. Laura.

Day 226 - Twiners

I love dressing Sam like a little man.  I love it even more when Ben and Sam inadvertently match. 
Day 226
I love it the most when they walk the same way while wearing matching man clothes. 

Day 226 - Hatch Green Chiles

In case you didn't know, Hatch green chiles are in season.  Since moving to Texas I have developed a deep and abiding love for these little jewels. 

Until last night.  

Day 225

I decided to make enchiladas last night.  Sometimes I'm not so bright and I don't think things through.
Like the fact that I was cutting chiles.
With bare hands.  
In case you were wondering, they will burn your hands.
I was so bitter about my burning hands that I couldn't even properly enjoy my enchiladas.
I will definitely be wearing gloves when I make green chile pork this week.

Day 224 - Cake

Day 224

Because of our super busy day yesterday, Sam's cake wasn't finished until today.  He doesn't even like cake so he didn't seem to mind much.  He just blew out the candle and ran back to play with his number/letter mats.

Ben and I sure enjoyed eating it though.
