It’s Pool Time

Let summer begin! The kids are ready. I have a feeling we will be living at the pool again this year. The kids really enjoyed the Friday night festivities tonight.

Camping

The boys went on their annual camping trip with the Foys this weekend. They had a blast just being boys. But boy did they sure stink when they got home! I think Jonathan had to wash his legs at least twice, if not three times to get all the dirt off. Jonathan caught two bass fish, played some baseball and went on lots of hikes. He loves his buddies Myles and Elliot. He didn't want to come home.

Diana 3 Year Checkup

Diana had her big girl 3 year-old check up today and all is good.  She had her eyes checked and all checked out ok. She is staying on her 25% curve for height, 36 1/2 inches, and 50% curve for weight, 31 pounds 2 ounces.  She had to get one shot today, Hep A, and did amazingly well. She got the shot like a big girl, in her arm, and didn't even cry or even flinch when the nurse pricked her.  I was shocked. Even Jonathan was nervous for Diana today and told me yesterday, "I am going to stand outside in the hallway while she gets her shot so I don't have to listen to her scream." Luckily for him, he was at school but as it turned out, he wouldn't have heard her scream.   

Jonathan End of year Picnic

Jonathan had his end of school year class picnic today. This particular park had a giant sandbox and all of the kindergartner's had pails and shovels. As soon as Diana walked up to Jonathan, he said hang on. He ran, asked his teacher if there was enough buckets for Diana to have one and came back with a purple pail for Diana. She was so happy! He still looks after Diana and it melts my heart every time. It was fun watching all of the kids play on a gorgeous day.

SMS Walk-a-Thon

Jonathan had a walk-a-thon at school today. Diana and I joined Jonathan's class for the walk. I think Jonathan walked with us for all of 2 minutes. Luckily there are girls in his class that are sweet and walked with Diana and I. One particular girl, Grace, walked with us the whole time and was so nice to Diana. She was picking her flowers, talking to her, helped push her. At one point she said, "Diana hasn't walked at all. I wish I was being pushed in a stroller." It was funny! We walked 3 miles which was far for some of the Kindergartner's and the teacher walks FAST. Afterwards, the kids got snowcones. Thankfully the weather held and it ended up being a nice walk.

St. Mary Kindergarten Mother’s Day Event

The Kindergarten classes put on a Mother’s Day Event for all us mother’s. It was so fun, sweet and heartwarming. I of course forgot l my makeup and supplies for the make-over piece of the event. Thankfully I have nice friends who let me borrow stuff. Jonathan got to paint my nails, put makeup on me and fix my hair. Don’t I look good? It’s probably the most makeup I have worn in years. Ha! Then we all got to walk-down the runway the kids had made with painted rocks we got to take home. All of the kids were sitting along the runway with their mom’s phones/cameras. They looked like the paparazzi. Next it was the kids turn to take the stage and sing us some songs. This will be an event I won’t forget for awhile.

Happy 3rd Birthday big girl!

Can't believe she is 3!
