Gorgeous weather for your birthday. It was early-release at school, so you got out at noon and we had fun the rest of the day. Grandma was here too!

Almost 6!
3 days until my baby turns 6 years old. It can't be! Where did 6 years go?? :(
Kindergarten is going great .... Danny is doing so well reading - he brings home a different book each night in his bookbag from Miss Morrison. He reads it to me, and then I sign off on his log. He's breezing through these books, and almost knows the entire list of sight words sent home at the beginning of the year! Math is going well also - he's doing simple addition and subtraction and seems to really understand the concepts. Such a Hickey All Star. :)
Grandma is flying in on Thursday for the birthday bash and Daddy is flying out on Saturday to go to a Redskins Green Bay game. He'll miss the party, but Danny won't even notice. All his girlfriends will be there.
After this weekend, it's time to get serious about Christmas shopping. (gulp)

Tooth Fairy Strkes Again!
Last night we were at Buffalo Wild Wings eating dinner and watching Nebraska play. All of a sudden Danny yells "Mom, it came out!!" That top front tooth had been hanging on by a thread for almost a month. Finally! So, we came home and put it under his pillow. This morning he comes racing down the stairs yelling "I got 5 bucks" That's my boy... .always about the money. lol
In other news, Kindergarten is going fantastic. He's bringing home different books and little bits of homework each week. I can already tell he's learned so much in the 3 weeks of school. 3 weeks! Can it be? Seemed like yesterday he just started. Now he's an old pro!
Less than a month until Danny turns 6! We've picked Chuck E. Cheese for the party this year. Should be a fun time!
We've also ordered our Halloween costume from ebay. Paid a fortune, but it's an elusive one so what can you do? Ben 10 of course. He'll be so excited when it comes in the mail!

1st Day of Kindergarten!
My baby is in Kindergarten. He was so excited I didn't even get the chance to cry. I was excited with him. He came home full of stories and wants to go back tomorrow. :)

Where did my baby go??
One week from today Danny will be sitting in his Kindergarten classroom and I'll be here at home alone. For the past 5 1/2 years we have always been together unless he was at preschool or camp, but those were only for a few hours at a time. This is 7:45 - 2:45! What will I do?? Several options..... I can continue to work from home with periodic visits to the office or I can go in for longer periods of time and take on some more responsibility (with obviously more salary) I'm weighing the options but I just can't decide. I want to be available for school stuff so I don't want to commit to much at work. The working at home thing is so easy too.
This is going to be a busy week. School supplies to be bought (thankfully the PTA has a package available) teacher to meet, more school clothes to buy!

Monday, Monday
4th of July was a blur this year. Danny was so so sick. Fever and just not himself. He watched the fireworks, but you could tell he was miserable. Fast forward a few days after that and he's all better. Not so much for Dan and I. We got it BAD. Fever, sore throat, achey, miserable .... and to top it all off - we both got pink eye. Yuck! That is the worst ever. We both agreed that we've never been so sick in our lives. The pink eye almost took two full weeks to resolve itself. My eyes are just now presentable. Going to Kroger at 8am for ginger ale and soup wearing sunglasses is just NOT fun. lol
But all is well now. Danny spent the weekend at Gigi's again and we had some much needed alone time - and well time - together :)
We're planning a surprise birthday trip for Danny this October. Just a quick weekend getaway to Nick Hotel again. He so loved that place last year. We're going to hop on a plane and not tell him where we're going. He will freak when we pull up to the hotel. It really is unmistakeable from the road with all the characters on the outside of it. I can't wait to see his expression.
Lucky kid!
