Mother - Son Superhero Dance

Last night our neighborhood had their Mother-Son Dance. The theme was Superheroes so Sam dressed as the best Superhero we know - Daddy! He wasn't so sure about the whole thing but he did have some fun chasing the lights, doing the Hokey Pokey and dancing with Mommy.

Gabby's Trip Journal

Gabby had to keep a trip journal for the days she missed from school. She only had to write on school days so the weekend days aren't here. She tells about our trip better than I could!

BTW- you can click on the pics to make them bigger so you can read them. I should have uploaded them large size but I realized it after I had uploaded them all one by one. Not redoing it.

Sam's Third Birthday

Happy to get a glove so he can play like Sissy

Also happy to get the red Queen bike he's been wanting!

He had plenty of help to get going.

Happy Birthday to me!

Sam's third birthday was Saturday. He has waited through everyone else's birthday and was very excited about it finally being his. He practiced singing to himself and everything. He has been wanting a bike like all the big kids in our neighborhood. He saw the Queen bike at the store last week and was smitten. After waiting through Home Depot, Gabby's baseball game and naptime, he finally got to open his presents and get his bike. It took him a few minutes to get the hang of it but now he's out there riding in the alley with the big kids.

Playing Pitcher

She poses when she sees me taking pics. I'm going to have to put a stop to that.

Finally Sam gets to run the bases!

Gabby's first coach pitch game was last Sat. She had only been to one practice since we were on vacation but she did great. She got a hit at 2 of her 3 at bats and fielded a couple of balls as pitcher.

BTW, I am having trouble uploading multiple pics to Blogger these days. Anyone else? I have tried for over a week on both my new Mac and the PC and no luck. I do not have time to upload one by one!

Home Depot

We love Home Depot projects around here. Sam has started doing his own projects instead of just helping Gabby do hers. Gabby has gotten very good at them and doesn't need much help any more. This was April's butterfly house project.

Build A Bear

Gabby and her winter Daisy patches

Gabby's Daisy Troop had a Build A Bear party with some of their Girl Scout Cookie money. They got their patches they have earned since January and then got to make a bear. Sam made a puppy for being a good Daisy little brother. Sam named his puppy Sammy. Gabby named her bear Rainbow.

Growing Up
