God Bless America...

Another song we practiced and sang for my graduation celebration at preschool was God Bless America. I have been singing all my songs around the house. Mommy caught me on tape singing this one…

I Graduated!!!

My preschool, Little Learners, had a graduation for my class for the end of the year celebration. Here I am so proud with my certificate in one hand and a rice krispie treat in another. I love my teachers, Miss Sonya and Miss Nadine... The video is hard to see. I am the one all the way to the left of the stage. Some guy has his big head in the way...but you can get the idea. We said the pledge of allegiance and sang 4 songs. Then we each got called up to get our certificates and chocolate grad hats.

Storyland

I went to Storyland last weekend with my friends Will, Jackson and Katie. It is a big fun theme park in NH gears to those small fry guys like me! We rented a house and stayed for the weekend. We did the park all day Saturday. I was able to run all the rides. I rode a water log ride, a rafting ride, and lots of kiddie rides but the best was the roller coaster daddy took me on!! It was the best and VERY fast. I handled it very well. We got yummy “park” treats too! AND I got to meet one of my idols…Super Why!!





"The" couch picture, It wouldn't be a get together without it!!!

Belly Time!!

Happy 3rd Birthday Marley!!

We've made it....3 years with the Marley man (if you've ever had a lab you'll know how monumentus this is!). Oh how he's grown. He is becoming such a good boy. What did he get for his birthday??? I three day weekend, all expenses paid at the local Kennel...he loved it :)

Movie Star??

Solids!

As you can see, Paige is on solids. She isn't a huge fan of them but deals pretty well. She is good with the rice and oatmeal cereal but does not care much for the fruits, apple and banana yet. I think they are too strong for her little taste buds :)

My Girlfriend –

I went to the Ecotarium with my girlfriend Alana the other day. We went to the toddler storytime, made a craft and had a snack. It was fun. When we were done, we went to lunch together too!!

Everyday Life with a Toddler

Before I had kids, I used to get a kick out of the silly things that come out of their mouths once they start to talk and make sense. I could never understand why the moms weren't dying laughing at everything they said. Now I realize, we are too busy cleaning up after or trying to avoid the next disaster  Here are a few things that has come out of Luke’s mouth of late:

1) Our 60 year old neighbor, John, spends a fair amount of time outside in his yard. We always say HI when passing by. Luke’s new thing is during random times of the day will say “Mommy, where is John at?” I always have to reply, “He is in his house right now honey”. That satisfies him and he walks away.

2) Anne Westrich came down for a visit with her dog Murray on Sunday on her way home from Newport. Murray stayed outside and the whole visit was pretty uneventful as she was only here for a short time. Four or so days goes by with no mention of the visit until we are in the car on Thursday and Luke says to me, “Mommy, where did Anne’s dog go?” Again, I had to say “Oh, he went home honey” he replies “bye bye Anne’s doggie” Then he is fine, onto the next subject….talk about a time delay…geeze!!

3) We went to the Ecotarium with Luke’s friend, Alana, this week. They had a toddler storytime and made a craft. I put it up on the fridge when we got home. Today, Luke looks at the fridge and says “hey, Lukie made that!!”

Memorial Day –

We went to the cape for the day over mem day weekend. It was great to see Mimi, Nana and the Parent family. Luke LOVED hangin' with chase-n-madison.

We came back to go to the local Memorial Day parade in Padanaram Village and had a BBQ with our neighbor friends later that day. Nice relaxing weekend...
