ok, this is a terrible photo, but i didn't want to wake him up. 

i was trying to be all stealthy and stuff...which didn't work, because he woke up as soon as the flash popped.  anyhoo.  sick kids are no fun...

this passed sunday, i was feeling weepy.  every little thing made me cry.  we got to spend a few hours in the morning with my hubs, but then he had to go to work.  2-11pm on sundays(and saturdays too, btw).  i was just sad.  so i baked.  i made hot milk sponge cake with chocolate ganache and chocolate butter cream.  it was heavenly.

  then yesterday, i was feeling guilty for eating cake all day on sunday.  so i threw that beautiful cake in the garbage so i wouldn't sit and eat the whole thing.  :o/

yesterday was huge!  monumental even!  not only did david turn THREE, but it was also his first day of school!! 

 

i mean really, where does the time go?

he had an amazing first day, and grandma and grandpa where here when he got off of the bus!

Happy Birthday, Handsome!  Mommy is so proud of you!  I love you more than words can say!

oh, and i made it halfway back down the driveway before i lost it.  then i locked myself out of the house---momentarily. (i just had to punch in the code on the garage door).  then i cried while getting gas because my car didn't have any kids in it.  good thing for large sunglasses!

two preschoolers

how is that even possible?  on monday, my two babies will be in school!  someone is going to need to scrape me off of the driveway when the bus pulls away with my baby boy on it!  today we go in for his IEP and he gets to see his classroom and meet his teacher!  i think he's going to thrive, i really do!  he's going to have an excellent speech therapist!  she was emily's for early intervention, then she got hired by the district right after emily transitioned into preschool! 
emily goes full day, but david is going to start @ 2 1/2 hours 5 days/week(afternoon session).  it will be really nice to NOT have to tip toe around the house while he naps!  the kid can hear a pin drop, i swear!  i'm afraid to even fart!
i think its going to be good for all of us!
i just can  not believe how fast they are growing up!

yesterday was my hubby's 34th birthday.  he didn't have to work his 2nd job.  instead, he got to spend some quality time with david!  it was wonderful.  (and i'm halfway to a new garden box!  there was something for everyone yesterday! tee hee)
