Beauty and the Beast

My new boss (er bosses)

A month ago my boss brought me into his office and told me that they would not be renewing my contract due to budget restraints. I was shocked, scared, devastated & angry. Now I have decided to take it as a sign that something better is around the corner and while I look for that something better, these are my new bosses:

The Fairy Festival

The dentist!

Finnegan had his first dentist appointment last weekend and it was no surprise to me that he was a perfect angel for Dr. Simon. At Zoe's first appointment I had to hold her on my lap and  she was not very cooperative. Not so for out little Mr. independent:

The dentist was so impressed with how clean his teeth were, that is because we dont let our kids eat any sugar. ever.

Summer, Summer, Summer time!

Is May really almost over? We are looking forward to summer and all the fun outdoor activities that we can do in our backyard  lying around in the hammock drinking frozen concoctions. We moved into the house in August last year so we only had a few weeks outside last year. It's hard to believe that Ms. Z has finished her first year of preschool. Int he fall she will be in Pre-K! Here she is last fall on her first day:

Note to self: cutting your daughter's bangs the day before the first day of school is NOT a good idea



Look how sweet and innocent they look




And here is Finny celebrating that his sister is in school now so he gets 2 days a week to play with toys w/o her snatching them!



I remember back when I took that picture of Z holding the chalkboard that I had all these great intentions of taking the same picture on the last day of school to see how much she'd grown. OOPS.

I do however have pictures of her field trip that she took just a few weekes before the last day of school, that counts right?

dont let her fool you, she may look interested but the whole time she just kept asking when we'd eat lunch!

Thank you Mimi and Pop Pop!

We are extremely grateful for the very genrous gift that Mimi and Pop Pop gave us-- a brand new swing set!
