Maggie's 1st Field Trip

Today was Maggie's first field trip with her preschool class.  Since she goes to Gentle Learning Preschool and they are apart of the Lisle Park District, they plan 1 field trip for the 3 yr old preschool classes towards the end of the school year.  They go to Cosley Zoo, which is a local zoo that has mostly farm animals but does have a few wild animals as well.  I was able to go this time as a chaperone with Maggie's class.  When Eva went with her 3yr old preschool class I met her class there.  It has changed a bit since the last time I went but all the children had a blast.  Maggie had so much fun looking at all the animals especially being able to pet a Shetland pony, feeding some goats and seeing the cows.

Potty Training

Maggie is doing really well with potty training.  We started about 2 weeks ago with really pushing her to go on the potty and it helped too that she was showing more and interest with going.  She is wearing pull-ups and goes on the potty at least 2-3 times a day.  She has gone number #2 once on her potty but hasn't done it since.  She also has started telling me that she has to go potty, her pull-up is ususally dry and she does go.  Even when her pull-up is dirty, she sometimes will still on her potty and goes as well.  My goal is too get her in underwear and potty trainded by April when she turns 3 because next fall she will be in preschool.

 When Eva graduated from 8th grade all she wanted was a pair of old school Michael Jordan shoes that were black, white and blue.  So that is what we got her.  Now for Maggie we wanted to something to make her feel special since she had a difficult time with the whole COVID-19 pandemic.  She has always loved musicals, so we got her tickets for her and Jim to go see the musical WICKED.  They finally went tonight, and they loved it.  Jim said it was better than the first time he saw it with me.  They enjoyed a nice dinner on the 21st floor of a hotel and had 4 row tickets in orchestra section.  So glad that she felt like a princess.
