135/365: Cupcake toppers

June 2nd: Here we go! Mika's birthday party is starting to come together, we have the invitations and most of the paper items designed. These will be the cupcake toppers...

In other news, we came home today to the table fully set and dinner made... all by Jack :) Granted, he made scrambled eggs (6) so some additions had to be made in order to feed us... but still, the kid made dinner :D

131/365: Cars

May 28th: I just took these from Mika, she's supposed to be sleeping but she was sitting on her bed playing with these. She claimed them a while back in Jack's room and since Jack is getting a little too old to find them interesting he gave them up willingly.

They are definitely one of her favorite, go to toys...

87/365: The Brogan

April 6th

Visited the Mary brogan Museum today, we had to drop off Jack's registration forms for summer camp. This year he chose Lego robots & Oceanography.

I knew he will go for the robots but the oceanography surprised me, I thought he would choose space or camping/ survival. It was a very pleasant surprise, and I really hope he will enjoy himself this summer. I'm glad the oceanography one includes a field trip to the Marine Lab as well, to connect with people who actually do this for a living.

Hopefully, Jack will finally get hooked on a hobby that he can dedicate himself to. Last year he was attending space/ astronomy camps but wasn't really interested to do anything more with it.

Unfortunately, drama camps have really weird times so he can't attend those...

We'll see

Went to the shrink today :)

The dreaded FCAT day *insert thunderous noises*

This is technically a photo for yesterday, Monday... I made these bars last night as part of Jack's breakfast for today. I try to make sure his breakfast before the FCAT days is a little bit special, hence the bars.... and plus they have coffee in them which tends to calm him down :)

The amount of books your average 4th grader brings back and forth between home and school. Ridiculous... you have no idea how heavy that backpack is...
