Christmas Eve and Day!
What a wonderful Christmas we had. For the 1st time Nana came from SC and it was a lot of fun. We all enjoyed having Nana here for the holiday. The boys enjoyed their presents, it was a big DS Christmas and Kevin loved his remote control Excavator from Uncle Chris...as well as his drive-thru McDonalds kit...he is a bit obsessed with the headset! The boys were so fun, no tantrums or meltdowns...what a bonus:) All toys were shared and of course Santa was good to me too!

Griffin's School Show

"The Adventure"
Disney on Ice did not disappoint! Griffin kept calling it "The Adventure" The boys had their first ride on the train which they loved. Kevin kept thinking it was time to get off when the train stopped and Griffin can't stop talking about going on the train again in the day...so he can see where he is going! We had a great night seeing the show. Griffin was thrilled with the Disney Cars performance..very cool seeing a bunch of cars on the ice, his eyes didn't leave the ice! Kevin didn't move...mesmerized is the word I would use! What a fun night, and we didn't use a stroller!! How fun as we see our little boys becoming quite independent. These little outings are such a perk in the job of a mother!

Preparing for Santa
We got a few cute pictures of Griffin this past weekend. One was talking to the elf on the shelf, who he and Kevin have named "Zane". I think he was giving Zane the daily report. The other 2 pictures of Griffin were taken as he wrote out his list for Santa..I love 5 year olds!! Such a fun and precious age!!
If you were wondering what the "elf on the shelf" is check out the website..elfontheshelf.com. We are enjoying Zane so much!

Thanksgiving 2008
This year we stayed in NJ for Thanksgiving and had a really nice relaxing day! Just a few pics to share...Kevin played with my Nephew's puppy Copper, and Griffin was glued to his Nintendo DS with big cousin Ian. Kevin loves dogs, but again, with Griffin's allergies we just won't be able to have a dog.

Lollipops and Peanut free...
We had a fun Halloween...I didn't get the best pictures..but I know they had fun! Kevin was Lightening McQueen and Griffin was part of the Pit Crew. After school we went trick or treating with Tyler and Ian. Tyler was a Hobo and Ian was a Sumo Wrestler..what a funny blow up suit! They both looked great. They were so sweet to let my boys go with them and their friends. Then home we went for pizza and more treats. All Kevin wanted was lollipops..he would unwrap b/4 he got to the sidewalk and then go to the next house get another lollipop and give me the used one...yummy, thanks Kev! While Kevin was enjoying his "yoyee pops" Griffin would get annoyed if he was given something with peanuts. I said to be grateful and I will exchange "peanutful" for "peanut free"...I love peanuts! LOL..
The Jacket that Griffin is wearing in the nighttime picture was Todd's as a child...it has all sorts of patches on of different car makes. Griffin thought he was hot stuff! Halloween is a tough holiday with Griffin's allergies..but I think everyone had a great day. Now I will gain weight as I eat all of the peanutful items!

No Cake Here!
On Griffin's official birthday we had a take-out by request from Olive Garden and Oreo Ice Cream Sandwiches! They were yummy and great to put a candle in. We always try to be creative since Griffin can't have eggs. Ice Cream cakes can be tricky with other allergens hiding. We had a nice quiet night. I still can't believe we have a 5 year old!

Pumpkin Picking School Trip
Today was a great day for picking pumpkins and hayrides. It was a bit too warm for my like 78 degrees, I like picking pumpkins while wearing a sweater, not shorts! Griffin has been having some asthma issues and up in the night a lot, but he wanted to go. So we had a great hayride which the boys enjoyed and then picked pumpkins. Good times, and nice memories with my boys!

Griffin's 5 Year Old Birthday Party!
Good Times were had by all for Griffin's 5th Birthday Party! We had 16 children at Swingset Planet and everyone had a great time! Other than my nephew getting a concussion and many band-aids being put on...it was a good time? When we left Griffin had no idea his cousin was taken to the hospital! I loved seeing Griffin with all of his friends, what a nice group of children! I LOVE this age! Ian is doing much better and Griffin is eagerly waiting his "real birthday" on the 16th!
