Days 96 & 97 (1st Grade)

Monday & Tuesday were filled with me chatting basically all day with Chrissy and trying to help her pick out bridesmaid & wedding dresses. Wishing I could actually go look at stores with her!!! Hoping to somehow pull off some bridal shows with her!!! Roberto had a good day at school both days. Just a little homework and Roberto tells me that he again aced his spelling test today.  Roberto is excited about his upcoming 100 days of school activities on Friday. Some good news from yesterday is that I have all my post-op check-ups scheduled for after my surgery. The next few days are gonna be busy copying stuff from the DVR to disc. Lots of kid shows!!!

Day 95 (1st Grade)

Friday. I love Fridays!!! I woke up and got the kids ready. Roberto brought his dinosaur presentation board to school that we made last year for his 100 days of school project.  He also brought one of his favorite dinosaur reference books and 2 of his dinosaur figures (Pachycephalosaurus & a T-Rex).  He went to super excited!!! While he was gone I was able to pull off some mommy time...a well needed gift to myself.  Then when Roberto got home he told me all about his dinosaur day at school.  He said that his teacher didn't have enough time to have all the kids show their dinosaur items.

Day 93 (1st Grade)

So yesterday was Roberto's first day back to school after his 3 day weekend. Upon his return home from school he informed us that this week is Dinosaur Week!!! He was so amped!!! You should have seen his face!!! He told us that on Friday the kids can bring in anything dinosaur related!!! He can wear any dinosaur stuff and bring in any dinosaur stuff too!!! He can't wait to show off his expertise!!! Hopefully his teacher will let him shine in this area because she knows he's well beyond his peers. So today was his spelling pretest and if he got all of the words right he doesn't have to take the regular test on Friday. So far so good and he's aced every prior spelling test. And I would like to announce that I have FINALLY completely cleaned up and organized the playroom!!! It is now completely usable!!! Now I have to finish our bedroom, the living room and the dining room. All three of which are pretty close to being done!!! So excited to almost have an actual presentable and functioning house!!! AND thanks to God I think my body is finally kicking the sickies that I have been battling!!! Well see ya and til tomorrow!!!
