Six

How can my sweet little boy

be six?

 

 Even today he is still all smiles!

 He loves Legos, GI Joe, Transformers,

and all things boy.

 For as rough and tough as he is,

he still loves to cuddle with his Mommy.

 He loves to be helpful and a gentleman.

He makes me laugh everyday.

  He melts my heart!!!!

He is smart, funny, cute,

and playful.

 He loves his Winnie, snuggles, and

being tucked in by Mommy at night.

He wants me to tuck him in till he

is 13, I am going to hold him

to that.

Happy Birthday,

my sweet baby boy!

We love you to the moon and back!!!

First Day of School

Today was a very big day in our house.

The kids started school.

We had many firsts today!!

First day at a new school, first time

at a DoD school, and our first

 time walking to school!

 (In Diva mode)

 If we take the sidewalk to school it take about 4 minutes,
 but if we cut across the soccer field

it is about 2 minutes to get to school.

 Why is it so hard to send them off to school?

While the kids were in school

I put together

KinderCones for them. 

The history of the Schultuete

dates back to 1810.

 The cones are given to kids on their

first year of school.

 I bent the rule a little and made one for each

of the kids.

The kids had a great first day!

Both of them want to go back tomorrow.

 I ask for prayers as we adjust

to the new school, new rules,

and new friends.

This is the first time not in a private

school and I am worried how they

will do in a new setting.

Birthday Girl

She started her day with pancakes and bacon.

 She wanted to spend the day downtown

at the Wine Festival, but with the typical

Germany weather that was not an option.

We had to find a plan B, but

it's Germany so nothing is open on Sunday.

So we went on base to bowl.

She loves it!

 I was able to capture the many

faces of the Diva.

 She looks so grown up, and that needs to stop!

 She wanted a nacho supreme

from the bowling alley.

As bad as it is for you, nothing

is better then bowling alley food.

 We bowled five games and then

we called it a day.

 We came home and I made

homemade red velvet cupcakes

with cream cheese icing

She had cupcakes for dinner and

 then opened presents.

It was a great day!

She was all smiles all day.
