My Boys are Sick

So if last month wasn't enough, now both Jason and Jacob have colds.  My poor boys!  It's Jason's first week of the summer term, he's teaching 12-hour days, and now has almost completely lost his voice.  Poor guy!  And Jake is just stuffy, boogery, and miserable.   It's hard to nurse and nap when you can't breathe through your nose, so he's grumpy.

It's also Samantha's last week of Kindergarten.  It's a crazy week!  Let me spell it out for ya:

Monday:  Backwards Day (all school), Water Day (kinder), had to bring a bottle of Glycerin to her class.
Tuesday:  Nerd Day (all school), Bowling Field Trip (kinder), different pick-up time
Wednesday:  Crazy Hair Day (all school), Field Day (lower grades), Teddy Bear Picnic (kinder), send Sam with a blanket and her bear.  After school hosting an Ice Cream party for her whole class.
Thursday:  Free Dress Day (all school), Class Party, I'm bringing 3 or 4 dz cookies & juice, and an Awards Celebration that I have to be there for at 10:20. 

Reading Rocks

I just LOVE stumbling upon moments like this!

Teacher Thank You Gift

It's made with a package of Rolo's, yellow and pink construction paper, aluminum foil, and a Hershey Kiss. 

Samantha is also going to write a little thank you note.

I figure I'll pick up a gift card to somewhere like Jamba Juice too.

I found this idea on Sugar Doodle's facebook page.  She found the idea on Simply J Studio.

New Chicks

We got new baby chicks today.  Aren't they cute?

We've only named one so far.  The Black Jersey Giant is supposed to get really big, so we've named her Madame Maxime.

Look at their beautiful coloring.

These birds are about 2 weeks old.

My Beautiful Children

I love this picture so much!

Too bad I was in the middle of folding laundry right behind them, but that's okay, because it's a really accurate

representation of my life.

Jake really loves sitting up!

And he really loves this piano toy!

Jake & A Cute Chick

Jake was fascinated with the little chick.

This one is my favorite.  The little white Delaware.  But we haven't thought of a name for her yet.  Any suggestions?

I found a picture online of approximately what she'll 

look like as a hen. 

What should we name her?

See Me Run

Sometimes Babies are so Easy to Please!

All boxed up and ready to go!

Shenanigans!

I'm calling SHENANIGANS on the month of May
and respectfully request a do-over. 

Does it work that way?
