A Peek Into Our Week- Easter Egg Hunt!

I am giving blogging a shot as a way to keep up with my project life and keep track of what goes on in our family- just to document our day to day life!


Our week started off with Olivia preparing to bring Pandy back to school with her. Pandy is the class mascot that each child gets to take home for 2 weekends during the school year. This was Olivia's second and last weekend with Pandy and she was so sad when it was time to go back to school. Here's Olivia & Pandy on the swing-

Pandy also brings a journal with him where Olivia gets to tell the class about what her and Pandy did during their time together. 

If you can't tell, they had a great time together. It's hard to believe that there are only 2 months left of preschool. I don't think either of us are ready for it to be over yet! I spent some time getting ideas of things to keep Olivia busy during her summer break. I think we are going to have do different themes with books, keep a journal, and review the alphabet- and lots of crafts, of course. I have to take her to register for kindergarten next week- yikes!

A low light of the week was the cold weathers return and the arrival of pollen. Aiden had a stuffy nose and had a little bit of a cough which turned him into a extra snugly boy, which mama enjoyed....

....but it also led to a rough night. He woke up coughing so I went to check on him and he wanted to come to our bed. He slept through Greg's alarm but woke up shortly after and woke me up saying "movie please mama". So he watched cartoons (Team Umizoomi is his current favorite) while I got ready for the day. He defiantly felt the effects of his early morning though- he was back asleep shortly after we dropped his sis off at preschool.

My poor buddy!

The highlight of the week had to be Olivia's first school Easter egg hunt at St. James! Aiden & I showed up a little before 11 to wait for her class to come up to the courtyard for the egg hunt. Olivia was so happy to see us that she ran to give me a hug while all of her friends were running off to find eggs. :) 

It didn't take her long to find her 10 eggs!

After the egg hunt her teacher said we could join them at the playground. Aiden was so happy to get to play with his sissy and her "fends". Olivia introduced Aiden to all her classmates and her best bud Dale was excited to hear how many new words Aiden had learned!

"Wow! Aiden can talk now!"- Dale

"Thanks Dale!"- Aiden :)

They really enjoyed playing together on the playground. Aiden thought it was fun to be a "big kid" for the day, but still says he doesn't want to go to school yet- he wants to "stay with mama." Shew- I'm so glad! 

Now I'm off to clip coupons and watch Army Wives. Greg is on week 2 of overtime so we need to enjoy what little time we have together lately.
