The promised pictures! :)

 We always have fun reading together at night!

 Having fun at the water play area last week at the aquarium.

BC can read parts of this book...ALL BY HIMSELF!  Go, Bear Cub, go!  Mama & Daddy are SO proud!

 These fountains are at the town square of our community...they are a big hit with all the kids in the summer!

 To end his "wild animal" theme from school this week...I took him to the zoo on Friday after school. And as always...he loved it!  :) Future Steve Irwin...minus the stingray incident, I always say....

 How can snakes bring SO MUCH JOY to someone!?!?  Well...they do.

 Merry-go-round!  This was the first time he got on one that went up and down...he liked it!

 Listening intently (and so still!) at yesterday's birthday party for Little Miss.  It was at a bouncy house place, which BC LOVES!  In fact, we are having his "friend" birthday party early...next weekend (before school lets out) at our local bounce house.  Oh boy!

He was all snuggled in last night!  :)  

Happy Wednesday!

Hi everyone!  Wow...I am a bad, bad blogger.  Just wanted to say that we are here and well!  FINALLY!  Last week BC stayed home a few days from school with strep throat, but he is doing better and back in full swing again.  He's doing well at school and came home yesterday clapping the number of syllables in his sight words.  Geez!  That's stuff I used to do with my second graders!  I was impressed!  He proudly read a few pages of "Are You My Mother?"  all by himself over the weekend...which we did video...so I will hopefully get that put up on the blog here soon.  We've got a busy weekend ahead with a friend's birthday party and then NEXT weekend, we will be having Bear Cub's "friend" birthday party at the bouncy place, Pump It Up.  I decided to do his party early, while the kids were still in school, in hopes of getting more to come.  It's tough having that middle of the summer birthday!  So far, we're getting good responses!  Time to party!  :)

Will post pics soon!  Just wanted to say hi.  HI!  :)  Have a happy day!

Middle of May....already!?!?

Hi there!  We are enjoying a peaceful Saturday morning...getting some things done around the house and waiting for Grandma and Grandpa to arrive for lunch. It was a crazy busy week for us...and I am pooped!  Last week we went to Indiana for 4 days and had a great time!  The weather was a little dreary at times, and pretty chilly for us Floridians that are now dealing with 90 degree weather on a daily basis!  But, we were able to visit with lots of family and even squeezed in a visit with my long-time friend and her family that now live in Indy.  We were busy!  Enjoy the pictures....didn't take too many...Bear Cub pretty much happily dug in the dirt, looking for the HUGE earthworms that live up there.  He was in nature heaven!  That boy needs some property that he can dig in, get dirty on, and just EXPLORE.  He loves it!

BC with his new friend...she's the stepdaughter of my friend...isn't she adorable!?!?  They did well together and we look forward to seeing them again on a future visit!
