Return of the Plague

It has hit our house with a vengeance. We've had the fun of vomit and fever and snot...oh my! So far, they've all missed two days of school and will miss tomorrow as well. (Thursday is looking iffy for the younger two.) Hopefully the boys will be on the mend soon!

My poor sick little guy. :(

100th Day!

Tomorrow is Jack's 100th day of school! He counted out 100 beads (10 beads of 10 different colors.) and beaded them on pipe cleaners. After looking at the strands of beads, he decided they looked like they were flames from a rocket.

So we made that happen!

He drew a rocket (or "rookit" as he wrote). We poked holes in the paper and threaded the pipe cleaners through. A little duct tape finished the job. lol.

He's quite proud of the finished product!

Happy Homecoming Day, Jason!

On this day, 9 years ago, our Jason finally came home after 100 days in the hospital! 

It's a day that is very important to us, the day we were finally complete as a family, and we will continue to celebrate for as long as the boys will let us!

Jason woke up to some decorations in his room.

He got to pick what he wanted to watch on television and decided what we had for dinner. (Hamburgers and fries, thank you very much!)

Then we sang "Happy Homecoming Day to You!" and watched as he blew out some candles. 

He was so excited to get a new CD, XBox game, and a box of chocolates. 

Happy Homecoming Day, Jason! Hope you had a fantastic day!

 

 

 

 

 

Monster Box

Jack wanted an "angry monster box" tonight. (This may have something to do with the fact that he lost his iPad provelefge due to getting a yellow behavior card at school. Lol) So, he brought out markers and made one...

Point taken, kiddo. It seems you're a bit mad about your punishment. Behave in school and you won't have this problem!

Beading Time

Jack was working on counting his 100 beads.

Mostly Wordless Wednesday

Kindie art is awesome! Jack learned about space last week. This was his culminating project.

The prompt said: "I went to space and I saw..." 

Jack wrote, "Jack saw a moon." He drew himself and a crater filled moon. :)
