Nursery Time

Today was the trio's first time going into the Nursery at church. They officially could have gone back when they turned 18 months old in December but under the pediatrician's order, we waited until RSV/cold season was over to keep the kids as healthy as possible. Throughout the winter, we'd been taking the kids to church for Sacrament Meeting only, so this was also the first time we were braving church for the full three hours!

Since Easter fell on General Conference Sunday and we didn't have church, the kids were all decked out in their Easter finery for the big day, although Jamison refused to keep his shirt tucked in!

Here is their entrance captured on video (coming soon) :

Jamison and Krista had no issues going right in and finding all of the toys. Kiera has always been hesitant of new experiences and change so I think she was just overwhelmed and didn't know what to expect, hence the major meltdown complete with tears. After a minute or two, she calmed down and was pulling out all of the toys from the closet.


Krista has always been very observant and today was no exception. She was standing back checking out the room setup and all the kids, carefully planning her next move and ready to make new friends.

Jamison went straight for the ball, no surprise there!

Kiera found a Dora the Explorer doll and they even have the same hair style!

Here's all three sharing the blocks:

Jamison looked so sharp dressed in his suit and curly locks. When we were getting dressed for church in the morning, Eric put on the ZZ Top song, "Sharp Dressed Man" and he was dancing all around knowing how handsome he looked.

The girls emptied the toy closet out in record time!

We were very curious ourselves about how the trio would handle us leaving the room and discussed the possibility of going outside of the church building to sneak a peek through the window but we resisted! They had no problems whatsoever. We got several compliments afterward from the Primary President, one of the Nursery leaders and the music leader about how well they did! We are very proud of them but still in awe that we have already reached this milestone. They are growing up so fast!
