The birthday celebrations keep coming...

Today was Charlie's gymnastics birthday party. He started out waiting for his friends in a nice comfy chair....


...and sharing kisses with me!

Michelle was even more excited than Charlie, or perhaps Charlie just took it all in stride.

This boy sure knows how to make my heart melt, he was blowing me kisses while playing with the parashute.

There was lots of fun at this party:







I love this picture because he looks like such a little boy leading the line and following the instructor.






Unfortunately when it was time for pizza and cake Charlie started crying that his belly hurt. After a few goes of this I thought it best to bring him into the car to avoid having any "incidents". When he didn't fight me leaving at all I knew he wasn't right. He seemed fine in the car and went right to bed when we got home, so I think he was just tired. He may be 4 but he loves to sleep!! At least he got to see his cake before it was eaten up!!

Happy 4th Birthday Charlie!!!

Charlie had a great day celebrating his 4th birthday!!
He started the day opening his presents.


As you can see Michelle was almost more excited than Charlie that he recieved a Leapster Explorer from Mimi and Grampy!!



We went to a playground with Nicky-Nick and Kate Rose. Boy was it cold but the fresh are was nice.






Nani and Grampa bought Charlie this clone trooper helmet that he has not taken off since. In fact, it as on his head at 4:30 this morning when I woke up to it talking and had to tell him it was too early.







Phew it was a tough day to turn 4!!

Hanging out

Michelle drew a picture to thank the vets for taking such good care of Zoe so we took a picture to accompany her drawing. While we were taking the picture I turned around to see Max watching on!!


Charlie and I took the opportunity to enjoy the nice weather earlier in the week. It was nice to come back to both dogs waiting patiently for us.




Breakfast with Dad.




Michelle went from being sick to performing on a stage in the kitchen in about 1 hour today!!

School Work

Michelle has started to go to school on Thursdays. Since it is a smaller group they are able to have the kids tell some stories and document them. Last week most kids had two sentences but as you can see her story of her mouse went on for a bit.

Cake for Koz

Well the cake wasn't really for Kosmo but for us in celebration of him and all that he and Mike learned over the last few months. We are so excited for them to start this journey together.

Graduation Week

Mike and Kosmo will hit the road on for their first official shift together on Saturday!!

Mr. Mischievous

Who doesn't wash their hands in the toilet and why not paint naked so your clothes don't get dirty?
