Fire Station # 46 Tour

Nicholas and I joined another play-group and today was our 1st day meeting some of the other mommies and kiddos. We all met at Fire Station # 46 for a tour of the fire station. I was kinda weary at 1st having a bunch of toddlers at a fire station but I have to say that all of the kids really enjoyed themselves.

Nicholas got to listen as the fireman talked about fire safety a little, he got to watch as a fireman put on his uniform, he got to climb in and play the fire truck, he got to pretend to drive the fire truck, he got to play in the ambulance and the best part was that he got to hold the hose and squirt the water.

We really enjoyed ourselves and Nicholas received a fire safety ribbon as well.

Afterwards, we met my friend Jackie and her son Stephen at Willie's for lunch... it was great to see them both.

Well, here are the pics so enjoy...

The ladies at Scrap-room.com are so talented & creative...just check out the tags I received.

Organization In Progress

I have been organizing toys all morning... I have decided to remove the baskets of toys we have floating around the house and condense them down to only Nick's room and the play-room... I bought some things for organization and have been working on it...I went through all the toys and bagged up all the Happy Meal Toys and other parts and pieces... I figure you have to do this every once in a while or you will be consumed with clutter... and those of you who really know me know that I can't stad clutter.

I am liking everything so far... I have been debating for a long time on what kind of wall hanging to get for the play-room and really could never find anything... so I decided to get the picture of Nicholas with his trains and blow it up into a poster and have it framed...another picture will be a large collage picture of all my favorites of Nick from 2008... like the one I made for my dad but larger...

Still debating on wall color...I want to paint but hate to paint so we shall see...

Oh and dad... you will be happy to know that I put this organizer together myself... it was actually really easy!! =)

ENJOY...

My Friends, Nicholas and Family

I can truly say that I have the most wonderful friends in the entire world... all of you know who you are. I have been blessed just to have you all in my life. I love you all and would not trade in in for the world.

OK, enough MUSHY STUFF!!

Today was a slow day. Nicholas and I stayed at home for most of the day. We played the Wii...he loves Mario Kart, Chicken Shoot and Balloon Pop. He also played on the computer on Noggin.com and www.thomasandfriends.com. He is a smart little boy and just amazes me with his computer skills. He learns alot on the computer.

We also read books and practiced shapes and ABC's.

We went to the grocery store this afternoon and on the way there I heard Nicholas singing... Row, Row, Row Your Boat... when I turned around in amazement he turned a little shy... I swear, he amazes me everyday.

Nicholas is my life and I would not trade him for the world.

Wow, more MUSH!! What has gotten into me...

I should say that I have a truly amazing family... and could not ask for better...

Ok, well, I am off to watch a movie with my wonderful hubby!!! =)

Matthew's Birthday

My dad and I took Nicholas to Matthew's 3rd Birthday Party today. Matthew is the grand-son of my dad's good friend Bob and his wife Marilyn. The boys had a wonderful time playing together and I would have to say Matthew's had a day to remember. We had Pizza, cake and icecream... it was delish!!

Here We Come!!!

These pictures were taken last week when we all took a trip to Joann's Fabrics... I think they are so stinkin' cute...thanks to Chrissy we have pics to scrap...


Hoppin' Good Time

Today we met my cousin Janie and her daughter Alyssa at the mall to have lunch in the food court and then we strolled on down to Inflatable Wonderland which is in the mall. The kids had a lot of fun and I think their favorite thing was playing Air Hockey... they were bother pretty good at it.

Janie and I decided that we needed do get back on track and meet once a week to play...so hopefully this time we will stick to it.

While we were waiting for Janie and Alyssa to get there Nick enjoyed riding a few rides and donating money to a good cause.







They loved playing Air Hockey
