Happy Mother's Day Weekend!

Sports

I am not an athletic person. I do a happy dance if the paper I'm throwing away actually ends up in the trashcan. So you can image my surprise when I found out that I have a sporty child. Nick has been running in kid races, just started T-Ball and will have swimming this summer then Soccer in the fall. I might have the coordination of an earthworm but I can cheer with the best of them.
Go Nick!

First Day of School!

How did this happen? How did my baby become old enough to go to Kindergarten?!
I'm really excited for him, and he is so ready. Now I just have to figure out what I'm going to do all day. I need to find some new hobbies. Is napping considered a hobby?

Disney

Way back in November we took a trip to Disney World. We had the most amazing time. The weather was in the mid 80's, there were no crowds and Nicholas was the perfect age. I always thought that people who went every year or so were crazy...I have now seem the light! I just wish my wallet had the same enthusiasm as I did.

Birthday

This past weekend has been fabulous. And believe me I needed a little fabulous in my life (who doesn't?) My boys and I started off the festivities with dinner out then skating. Watching Nick getting the hang of rolling was hilarious. The big eyed worried faces he made had me giggling. Saturday I woke up early to look for antiques. Not much luck on that front. However, it makes my heart happy when it's warm out and I see yard sale signs. We ended the weekend with fishing and cake. And Nick caught his first fish! He had no problem holding his prize. (For the record gross!) Although, on the way home he did complain about the fishy smell on his hands. This year is the first year I actually feel older. I have aches in places I never knew existed.

My baby is 5!

I know, I know I haven't blogged in months. And he turned 5 in January but the good news is that I found the cord for my camera so I will post more...bad news my Hubby has the camera in North Carolina. So new pictures will have to wait. In the meantime here is a picture of my favorite boys.

Super Kitty

The other day my son came to me held up his Baby Kitty and said, "Poor Baby Kitty wants to be a superhero like Mama Kitty!"
So I found an old red cloth napkin and started to sew. The first cape I was told looked too much like a Boy Scout. I tried again and this time he approved. I was so into it that I even added a little flare to Mama Kitty's cape. (Daddy Kitty would be our actual orange cat Seamus)
Look up in the sky, its a bird it's a plane ...it's Super Kitty.

This is whats happens to your pet when you let your 4 yr old dress him up.

Weekend Fun

Saturday I was able to spend a few hours with my mom and go to a gigantic flea market. I saw these Pyrex Refrigerator Dishes and the man was asking 6 dollars for it. At first I thought he meant a piece but he said the whole set!! They are faded but I have been looking for a set and I'm exited to use them. I also found juice glasses and a pitcher set for 2 dollars. And a table runner for Christmas.
We had two parties this weekend (Yes that's me chasing Nick in a bumper car)
And Sunday evening we were invited to a private party at a local Moon Bounce place to help decorate the party room. Nick and I had fun making giant hand flowers. I even managed to get some Christmas presents finished (I'll show you them soon:)
