October signaled the beginning of my path to Harvard, as I started "mommy and me" preschool, which meets two days a week, two hours each day. The schedule is obviously rigorous and I'm faced with many intellectual challenges, but no need to fret. After all, I am The Dex.
 |
| Hmmm, if I only had a contraption suitable for carrying my books while leaving my arms uninhibited.... |
 |
| Aha! This Dexter-themed backpack will do. |
 |
| Let's roll! |
When I'm not cruising through preschool physics, calculus, philosophy and picking up the ladies, I enjoy pushing things around the classroom (or, as I like to call it, "interior design studies").
 |
| This blue chair is much more fun than those toys. |
 |
| If this lady would move I could park my basket. Stop texting and please move! |
 |
| Let's see, blocks, toys and crayons...yep, got everything on my list. |
Although I was a bit shy at first (playing the "cool kid" card), I've since opened up and have made some friends along the way.
 |
| Did someone stick a nerdy name on my back? Oh wait, that is my name. |
 |
| Let me tell you how this ends. I end up with the basket and you walk away. Thx. |
 |
| Nice stroller, Sunshine. You come here often? |
With all this learning, socializing and chair pushing, I need to recharge with some brain food.
 |
| String cheese, Goldfish crackers and juice. My compliments to the chef. |
 |
| I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a Goldfish today.... |
While learning is of course cool, what I enjoy most about my pre-preschooling adventures is that I'm able to share them with my most special person in this world: my Momma. I admit that even the The Great Dex is prone to the occassional fit, whining episode or no-holds-barred tantrum, but through it all I never forget how much I love my Momma and all that she does for me. Thanks, Mum.
 |
| I love my Momma! |
We took a trip to the Tanaka Farms Pumpkin Patch to check out pumpkins, chase bubbles, pick vegetables from the farm, and visit the petting zoo.
 |
| What are we reaching for? |
 |
| I kind of like this dirt stuff. Especially on my clothes. |
 |
| This pumpkin is heavy! |
 |
| Thanks, Mum. |
For my second Halloween, I was my nerdy Dad's favorite character from Star Wars. Similar to myself, this character is short, wise, and doesn't exactly speak proper English.
 |
| Wishing you a Happy Halloween, the Yoda Dex does. |
I went to my Daddy's office for a Halloween party, which included candy, trick or treating, and candy. Did I mention there was candy?
 |
| So you're telling me you can eat these M&M things any time you want?! |
 |
| Don't worry Daddy, I'll respond to this message. |
 |
| Using the Force, the Yoda Dex is. |
Dexter, out.
