Spelling Bee!

Today, Jason participated in the school spelling bee! He did an AWESOME job, too!

Lucky number 13!

Spelling his first word "foot"




 Jason is still in the running and made it passed the first 4 rounds. He spelled the words "foot," "blanket," "purse," and "Icelandic."

They ran out of time today, so Jason will go back tomorrow and give it his best.

We are SO PROUD of him!

Cute Big Boy Saturday

Today is National Chocolate Cake Day! That of course meant there was only one thing for us to do...CELEBRATE!





And then there is Jack, who for some insane reason, doesn't do cake. (I have no idea how this can be. My kid doesn't like chocolate. Or cake.) He instead celebrated with cherry flavored gummies. To each his own, I guess!


Happy National Chocolate Cake Day!

Friday Four

This week has been more stressful than expected for a whole host of reasons. We are all relieved to have finally reached the weekend!

The boys have decided that they'd like to have a sleep out this weekend. In essence, they all seem to think that I make a very good pillow and would like to put that theory to test. So...we shall see how (if?)  that goes. lol

~~~

I can't believe it has officially been 10 years since we've had a baby in the house! It feels both like just yesterday and a million years ago.

I asked the boys this week if they were ready to leave the Homecoming Day celebrations behind us. They were both in agreement that there is no way we should stop. Jason even suggested that they should at least go on until they move out. Maybe longer. LOL. We'll celebrate as long as they want to. :)

~~~

But, speaking about celebrating, I think the big boys may have officially outgrown giving Valentines for Valentine's Day. I asked, and there was a definite lack of interest in this. Wonder if that will hold out as the day approaches.

~~~

Isaac got the boys whoopee cushions this week. It has been so much fun. For them. LOL Oh, the laughter a whoopee noise can bring.

Happy Homecoming Day, Shawn!

On this day, 10 years ago, our Shawn finally came home after 90 days in the hospital! 

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

Shawn woke up to some decorations on his door.


He got to pick what we had for dinner (pizza).

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








He was so excited to get some new "truck haulers" to add to his collection. :)


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