4/9/09 Happy 2nd Birthday to my baby girl!

Posted by lizhealthymom on April 9th, 2009 |Filed Under Uncategorized |

I can’t believe it has been 2 years already!  Ok, so she acts like she is older than 2 a lot of the time, but still…!  It was very weird this morning looking at the clock and realizing that at that time 2 years ago that I had just met her for the 1st time.  And to see how much she has grown and what a “big girl” she is is just mind blowing.  We are not doing much to celebrate today, the “party” will be on Saturday.  Given her age, we are just doing cake, ice cream and presents in the afternoon.  I am making (or attempting to make) a Tinkerbell cake for her, so I hope it turns out well.  If so I will post pictures!  

I have so far survived spring break with the kids, although it has been rather boring minus the fights lol.  I just really cannot seem to make myself want to go anywhere when the weather is this miserably cold and wet.  Less than 2 months till they are out of school for the summer.  I have decided to do a bit of a summer school with them here at home.  Nothing major, but just something to hopefully help keep them from losing what they learned through the year.  I have picked a few themes and we will do art, cooking, math, language activities throughout the week and then one day every week or two I will do a “field trip” of sorts.  There are lots of great museums and parks around here, and they are mostly FREE, so this will be great.  I am hoping there will also be lots of free activities around town again this year like last..last year there were some great programs at the library, free movies at various nearby movie theatres, a hands-on art series and farmers market on Saturdays, etc.  Plus we are members of our local Y and they have an outdoor pool that I plan to visit at least a couple of times a week.  Hopefully with all of that, I will manage to avoid WWIII for another summer at least!

Well, dinner is almost ready, and after that the boys need to go to bed, so I better get this posted while I can.  Sad to see the journals closing but hopefully we can all stay in touch through the blogs.  I do wish they had a way to mark the ones that have new postings, but I guess it could be worse.  At least I am using Safari, so I can just go down the list and open up a new tab for each blog and go through them that way.  Be happy ladies, it’s almost the weekend!!!
