Lucky Me, I Get to Wake Up To This!

Our First Camping Trip

Reading, Writing & Arithmetic

Both Mia and Sebastian are reading and writing more than just their names.   I have a set of Dick and Jane books that I'll start them on this summer.  Sebastian has a definite aptitude for math as well.  He adds and subtracts numbers as high as 20.

Last Day of Preschool

 

My sweet boy's last day of preschool was yesterday.  Can't help to have teared up over this little milestone.

Line Leader

Mia was chosen to be the line leader for her dance class and she was AWESOME!!!  Teacher Anna said that she's ready for her first recital in June.  My doll will certainly be the star of the show!

Mother's Day Weekend

We spent Saturday up in the Pecos Wilderness watching the hummingbirds and walking along Holy Ghost Creek.  We spent the night in Santa Fe and the kids got to ride horses.  Sebastian was a little hesitant but Mia was a natural!  It was a very nice Mother's Day, especially when I got to stretch out on the big bed by myself!

Mother's Day Sock Hop

 

Sebastian's school organized a sock hop for Mother's Day.  Sebastian was a greaser with folded up jeans, a fake pack of cigarettes rolled up in his t-shirt sleeve (he didn't know what it was supposed to be) and his hair greased back.  They had root beer floats, 50's music, hula hoops, bowling and his teacher presented us with a wonderful cd of pictures from the whole school year.  It was truly a special day.

While Daddy was Having Fun In Pittsburgh....

Here are some random pictures I took of things the kids and I did this week while Robert was out of town.  The kids did some painting, had fun at the trampoline park and we took a road trip with our friend Carol up to the Pecos monastery.  We had a nice time but we're glad Daddy's home!
