Connor's Program

On Thursday Connor had his end of the year program at preschool and since he's 4 he got his preschool diploma.  They sang several songs while on stage and, even the songs he wasn't sure of the words, he sang with all his heart!  As they got on the stage Jon looked at me and said, "I hope he doesn't fall off" and not 2 seconds later he fell down-- luckily he stayed on the stage!  He bowed between songs and had fun-- which is really all that mattered

Puppies

Well, for those who haven't heard, our Yorkshire Terrier, Lucy, had puppies on April 16.  She had 2 males.  I'm sure Jon had a good laugh at work when I called him out of the blue completely freaking out.  Here's the story-- we had started to realize that Lucy was pregnant but I was unaware (completely) that she was due.  I was cleaning carpets getting ready for my parents and Amanda to visit.  I stopped to put potatoes in the crock pot for dinner when I suddenly heard this loud whining sound.  I went to search it out and saw Lucy at the back door with a puppy in her mouth!!  I let her in and she ran to my room (after running through 2 rooms of freshly cleaned carpets).  I called Jon at work completely panicked that she had the puppy outside and convinces that there was probably another somewhere and I couldn't find it.  Jon thought I was crazy so I called my friend Liz who lives down the street and she came over and, luckily, their granddad is a vet so she called him and everything was fine!  Turns out, she did have another but she had him inside.  They are very cute and now have their eyes open.

Trevor's Birthday

Well, we had to have Trevor's birthday 2 weekends after the actual day due to dance recital BUT he had a GREAT time! He chose to go to the skating rink here in town and he just loved it.  It was a private party so the only ones in the whole place were there for him.  He invited his friends and about 16 of them showed up (including Meghan and Connor.)  They got to skate for 1.5 hours and he opened presents and my friend, Michelle, made his birthday cake and it was delicious!  Overall he had a great time and I tried to hide my tears as I had to realize he is growing up-- Still can't believe he is 9!!
