breakfast with charlie brown and santa...

daniel is now attending preschool at O'Roarke elementary school.... he loves it.  he gets to ride the bus to and from school, and i love it because they pick up and drop off right in front of my house.  he is such a smart boy... he excels at counting and alphabet and shapes and color... but his conversational speech is a little behind.  even that is already so much better since he started going.  last weekend the school was having a little activity and it sounded perfect for daniel we woke up nice and early saturday morning and headed to the school....  we started off eating cereal and watching the charlie brown christmas movie.  chris also enjoyed a nice hot chocolate.... and daniel enjoyed a bowl of whip cream (his favorite)

afterwords he and chris worked on this cute little craft of putting little stickers on this charlie brown christmas scene... daniel loves all things stickers.  he also got to go read with some of the sweetest dogs.... or really he sat and patted them while other kids read books.

he loved seeing santa... and it was perfect because there was no line... he walked right up and sat on his lap.  when santa asked "whats your name?" he pointed right to his chest and said "i'm daniel!"  we've been working on that forever and its so cute to see him actually answer the question when people ask.  he then sat there and smiled and laughed for a bit.  

the highlight of the morning was seeing charlie brown... he stood there and played with him forever!  high fives... stomping... hugs. and lots of laughing and jumping.  as we were leaving he said " i love the charlie brown!"

i would say it was totally worth going just for charlie brown.  fun saturday morning.... the only down side is we were home by 9 am and awake and ready for the day with no other plans... haha!
