Halloween fun

We had alot of fun on Halloween! DS met some of his friends at our local children's museum. They had a blast! All the kids dressed in costumes and then we had a quick lunch afterwards.

Later that evening, he went to his friends house for a little party. We were supposed to go to our church afterwards but they were all going trick or treating...of course ds wanted to go. So...we went trick or treating for the first time in my life or his! It was pretty fun.

By the way, ds dressed as a fireman.

My son is becoming quite popular

We've gotten 3 invites for halloween! Of course he wants to go to all 3 but I don't see that happening..LOL!

I'm just glad that he's developing a couple of close friendships already. I think it's cute. Plus as an only child I think friends will be important in his life.

Just wanted to share:)

Umm..crush?!

I think my little one has a crush! To top it off, it's his last year teacher's daughter. I have to say, she is a cutie! But I"m a bit surprised and wonder if I should be concerned at all.

He came home talking about her a couple of weekends ago and I just thought, "aww, how cute." I thought it would just go away but he has been talking about this little girl constantly since then...EEK!

I didn't think crushes started this young.

Catching up on us...

Sorry I've been so scarce lately. School is really kicking my booty!! Between being mom, making sure ds is on top of his school work, job-hunting (still), and being in school, I'm BEAT!

I definitely won't be taking more than 6 credits next semester but I'm really enjoying knowing that I'm just that much closer to finally getting my degree. Yay me!!

DS is doing well in school (good for him) and still enjoying Tae Kwon Do. I definitely plan to keep him in TKD for as long as he wants to stick with it. He get's so excited about the stuff he learns at each class and looking forward to getting to the next belt.

Some firsts for my baby!

I know he's not a baby; he's 6, but still my baby.

A couple of nights ago he asked to take his first shower. I know..not a big deal but it was to me. He was SO cute! I stood there peeking at him to see how he did. Am I sad or what??! I tried to take a pic but couldn't get a good one..LOL

Also, a couple of weeks ago I found a note from this girl in his backpack. He had a playdate with a friend that day and I guess he talked about it at school. This little girl wrote the cutest note asking if she could go with him and attempted to write her phone number for him to call her. It was just so sweet.

I think I was surprised that he was even talking to a girl because since he was about 4 he has declared that girls are YUCK! He's been talking to this little girl often and chose her to sit with him on the stage a few days ago at lunch. What the heck is going on...??!

First skating party!

My 1st grader went to his 1st skating party yesterday...sniff, sniff. He really surprised me a few weeks ago when he said he wanted to go because he never wanted to go last year.

One of the school rules is that parents must attend if the child can't skate so off I went. He even rode the bus from the school (didn't want to ride with me...eek!)

It was SO and somewhat bittersweet to watch him play with his friends like a real big boy. The skating thing went ok. He just could NOT get his balance. My 5th grade niece and her friend offered to help, so I let them. That didn't go over very well because he was pulling them down....LOL!

So...mom strapped on the skates and decided to hit the floor but he decided then that he wanted to play instead of skate...anywho

I guess he's really growing up and I can't stop it...

Mom Spot movie review

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs...

DS and I saw it today in 3D and it was good. We both really enjoyed it. The animation was great and it actually had a bit of a storyline to it. I won't give it away for those that want to see it.

One thing I didn't know is that it's based on a book. Guess I missed that book as a kid...LOL!

I give it an A so go out and see it.
