WaterFire

On our bucket list since we moved to the southcoast has been WaterFire in downtown Providence.  We FINALLY made it!!  And just in time, as this was the last one of the season.  We coupled this with a trip to the open house for PS&H's new buliding. The kids loved it. Lots to do before the waterfire actually started. Lots of booths with free stuff which is Luke's favorite thing. He is not shy either, asking everyone and anyone if they had free stuff for him. Most of the stuff ended up in his "office", a post to come on that subject.  

Birthday Present

This morning, before I was even out of bed, Luke presented me with my birthday gift. He was VERY excited to give it to me. It was a cardboard box taped up and inside included the following:

1) a toy from some happy meal

2) a bag of chip clips and rubber bands

3) the baseball he got from the River Dogs game in SC (but told me he would need this one back)

4) Four animal books: Apes, Frogs, Cheetahs, and Sharks.

5) a bag of hot wheels

6) a coffee filter colored and decorated (this served as the card - I think)

7) a snow leopard stuffed animal

8) a bag of pens and markers (taped on the outside of the box)

It was quite a gift. Thank you Luke. Mommy loves it!

My Dream....Wish....

Today Paige said to me: "Mom I had a dream last night. Do you want to hear it? I dreamed I was at school and I wanted to come out to the car when you got there because my new little sister was in the car and I was excited to see her. Isn't that a good dream. Actually....it wasn't a dream. It is more of a wish" She is too cute and too excited for her little sister to arrive. She keeps telling me how she will pick out her outfits everyday. Knowing Paige, I'm sure she will take this job very seriously. If it is anything like the process of picking out her own outfits, she will turn it into a full-time job.
