This week, we saw the return of certain grandparents. They graciously offered to watch the little guy, while we went to (gulp) kindergarten orientation.  Wait, what just happened here. When did the little guy get closer to kindergarten. There were signs, yes.  Insatiable eating habits. Writing his name.  A mindblowing will to get his way. Or as he just so proudly said, mommy get me some milk. I need milk to get big…that way I get to make my own decisions, oh boy!

We also celebrated daddy’s birthday. Phil N Jim’s with the grandparents and cupcakes.  And the little guy taking credit for buying all gifts.   Really cool night with the family

We’ve all been seriously under the weather…I’m going to call it the Winter 7 Week Curse. Mommy had a return to Urgent Care with a seriously bad ear infection. Ouch!  Daddy is still blowing his nose..and refusing to go back to the doctor.  And the little guy had pimples all over his mouth. We, of course, joked that it was pre-puberty. Mom Mom figured it out–and it was not good news. A highly contagious infection spread with just about everyone that has no immunity. I swear if I catch it…I’m taking the first flight out to Hawaii….all the while singing Let It Go and visions of pristine beaches instead of ice castles
