100th Day of Kindergarten

Tuesday, February 9, 2010:

Here is "Old Man William" as he calls himself. Today is the 100th day of Kindergarten! He has been super excited about this for a week now. He had a ball yesterday at Party City. We found gray spray paint for his hair. His hair is so light that it just soaked up that gray color! He also found an over the hill squeaky walking stick that cracked me up so I had to let him get it. Look carefully...there is a horn, caution sign, dentures, magnifying glass, a medicine bottle (which he put candy in :-), etc. He picked out these crazy blue glasses to wear along with on of Thomas' shirts and old ties! He looked so adorable and old!

All of the Kindergartners and their teachers are dressing up as 100 year old ladies and gentlemen for the day. They also got to choose 100 items to bring that are about the size of a cheerio to use throughout the day for various 100th day activities. He brought 100 popcorn kernels and 100 blue beads because he couldn't decide!

It was so funny to see them dressed up as little old munchkins. They were greeting each other and saying good morning in their sweet little voices. The girls looked precious too! Some of them had roller in their hair, wigs, smugged lipstick, robes, etc!

Amazing Weekend!

Monday, February 8, 2010:

What a perfect weekend! The weather was so beautiful Saturday morning so we decided to head to the Zoo for the day.

We got back after lunch and able to get so much done! We washed and waxed my car, changed the oil, rode bikes, took Charlie for a walk, played with our neighbor friemds, and went to a birthday party!

Sunday we went to early mass and cheered on our SAINTS! The boys ordered a Manglomo pizza for dinner it was amazing and always a huge sight to see! Here a few pictures of our sweet boys...hope you enjoy:-)

Maybe too much help!

Weekend full of Science!

Monday, February 1, 2010:

We have had such a fun weekend full of science and explorations. Friday and Saturday night the boys "camped out" in the living room and had a blast. It was almost too cold to play outside so...Saturday the boys made rock crystals and test for acids and bases with dad in the workshop! Sunday we went to early mass, lunch at canes, a trip to babies r us and spent the rest of the afternoon at the Children's museum.


We are now offically member of the Children's Museum of Houston! Yay! The boys are super excited. This is our second year membership to the zoo so now we can have another place to visit more often. Looking forward to making many new memories with our boys! Here are a few pictures! Enjoy!

The Goddard School

Monday, January 18, 2010:

Today Louis began his new private preschool! The Goddard just opened last week. It takes me about 5 minutes to get there! It is a wonderful place and we are super excited for you Louis!

I dropped him off at 8AM and picked him up around 2:30 and he was still napping. He told me all about his day and new friends and his new best friend...his teacher Mrs. Watson! She has a double masters degree in Early Childhood! The school reminded me of EDS and fell in LOVE!

He had a full page report of the day! His teacher kept on complimenting him on his red hair, how sweet, smart, and how he had the best little manners at lunch! :-)

Good morning everyone! We are expecting our third little snuggle bug. I am currently 12 weeks along! He or She will be arriving in the middle of July. The whole family is super excited and can't wait! This picture was taken in Lake Charles. I stole the idea and the boys and I made the shirts! We put them on and surprised immediate family and just a few friends during Thanksgiving! It was so fun! Please keep us in your prayers as we have started a new journey!
