COUNT DOWN

Well....we are counting down the hours at my house to Disney World ,June 2007. Sebastien has been dragging his suitcase around the house, adding toys to it. He put in his Spiderman action figure so he can take it on the Spiderman ride at Islands of Adventure. This could be Sebastien's longest day!

Here are some pics from Memorial weekend....

LAST DAY OF 3 YR OLD PRESCHOOL

Today was the last day of school. Surprisingly, Bash was not that happy about it. He really likes Mrs. Hight and all the school activities. The preschool had a party and the kids went to three different classrooms for snack , limbo, and a craft. It is hard to believe this school year is over. Trisha bought Sebastien an "end of the year" present (Spiderman bathing suit) and took him and Nicholas to McDonalds and back to her house for a swim. Great way to kick off the summer! Here are some pics from the last day.

GATORLAND

Joe, Bash and I went to Gatorland and Downtown Disney this past weekend. Gatorland is an interesting place. We fed very large alligators hotdogs and Joe and Bash got to sit on an alligator for a picture! We couldn't leave without taking the train ride around the park and a look at the snake cages. It was a great mini vacation......

Love Bugs have taken over Florida right now. A week ago Sebastien and his friend Nicholas were running from them. Even Mrs. Hight, their teacher, commented on how much they dislike them. This week, Sebastien is calling the love bugs his friends and invited a few of these bugs to come inside and live with us. It was cute for about a minute....now I am sucking up these love bugs with the vaccuum. They only good part is that Bash spends hours hunting them down with his bug sucker toy and the water gun! Cheapest form of entertainment:)

A WEEK OR SO IN REVIEW..........

Since I blogged last... we have seen Spiderman daddy and Bash loved it. I thought it was pretty cool too. It was a long movie for him to sit through but he keep telling me he wasn't scared.

Mother's Day came and went.....Sebastien had Muffins and Mothers at school which was sweet. The kids all served the muffins and juice to the mothers and then they sang songs. We got handprint flower bouquets and big cards with their pictures on it. On Mother's Day, Bash and Joe took me out to breakfast and then we did a BBQ with Grammy and Uncle Sean....it was just a nice relaxing day.

Well...the first year of preschool is wrapping up. Some may say that it is not a real school year but it sure felt like it. I did my share of volunteering, book fairs, and fundraisers. We had to get up, make up snack/lunch and get out the door by 8ish and Sebastien wore a uniform once a week. There was two teacher conferences....which went well but no homework! I think we have until first grade for that. Sebastien has really enjoyed prescool this year. Next year may be a little different. He is going to go to 4K pre-k at St. Stephen's 5 days a week for half days. I think we will both be in shock. I am ready for some fun summer days.......bring on the beach!

SPIDERMAN

Sebastien is Spiderman obsessed these days. He has been into all the Marvel comics for some time now but with the Spiderman 3 movie coming out this weekend it is getting out of control. Thanks to marketing of the movie, we now have bought Spiderman fruit chews, yogurt, three different Spiderman cereal, rice krispy treats, juice, vanilla wafers, Spiderman underwear, PJ's, hats, shirts, stickers, etc.. The have stuck Spiderman's face on anything they can sell. Why on earth can they not put a Spiderman label on bananas, carrots, lettuce, anything healthy? We would buy it and Sebastien would eat it because of Spiderman. No more trips to the store for Bash until the madness dies down.

Joe and Bash are going to see the movie on Sat. morning........Bash informed me that I would be to scared and it is only for him and daddy. Fine with me.....I'll get a pedicure.
