BOUNCE U party...

See the story below........

Kid's party at Bounce U

Yesterday we had Timmy's "friend" party at Bounce U. I was not wild about this preferring to just have family parties with a few friends, but Timmy has been asking ALL YEAR LONG! He even asked Santa! So here we go-we decided to go with a budget party-hey we're not made of money here and it was a good deal-since we brought our own cupcakes, napkins, plates, & goodie bags it was quite reasonable! The kids bounced for an hour-30 minutes in each room and then they had cupcakes and games for an additional 30 minutes. We could invite up to 15 kids-this is what irked me most! We invited 13- (Timmy & Austin were the additional 2) but only 7 RSVP's! One was a no, but 6 did say they were coming. I even asked my sister & brother to come with their kids.......hmmmmmm...they never responded either. Of course, they were last minute invites, so we'll let that part go.... verall Timmy did say it was the BEST party ever!

New Year...new teeth!

Timmy lost another tooth. Austin seems a bit envious, but we keep telling him that is just because he was born with extra teeth (long story!). This one was quite a mess when it came out and I don't think the chapped lips helped at all. The tooth fairy is a frequent flyer in our house! PS Look closely at the first pic...his other tooth is now loose too!

More PTA Reflections....Timmy's turn

These are the pictures Timmy wants to enter in the photo contest. Remember the theme is WOW! and he made these choices on his own (he originally wanted all his stuffed animals, but I talked him out of that one). Keep in mind he's only 5. Which one do you like?

Timmy's First Day of Kindergarten! Part2

More-arriving at the Y...and a repeat of the best one...leaving school.

Timmy's First Day of Kindergarten!

The idea of going to kindergarten does not impress Timmy at all. It was an uneventful morning, everyone was up and ready to go on time, and Austin was probably more excited than anyone!
We took Timmy to school, but he wouldn't smile in front of the school sign or in the classroom. Austin and I attended a brief meeting while Timmy stayed with his class. We reunited at the safety assembly and we were able to get a smiling shots of him at the end of the orientation, waiting for the bus and getting on the bus. The woman in green behind Timmy in one picture is his teacher, she is new to Shafer school. At that point Austin and I got in the car and drove to the YMCA in order to see him get off the bus and enter the Y for his daycare orientation.
