Kaplyn had her 1st grade field trip to the Pittsburgh Zoo on May 18. I wasn't able to go due to Matlyn's birth, but my mother-in-law happily filled in. It rained in the morning, but when they got there it stopped and was a beautiful day! Kaplyn bought Matlyn a leopard printed pacifier that said "Wild Thing" on it. She was so excited to give the gift to her new little sister :)
Cameron's Academic Fair was the same night. He had a Science project on display. He received a 1st place ribbon for his display!
Likes of the Week
Plumbers! They are my new best friend...they fixed my washer problem and toilet issue all in 1 hour...and found a tub toy that was missing...where do you think it was found?!
On with the week....
We enjoyed an afternoon of singing, dancing and reading at Kaplyn's 1st grade Author's Tea. She is such a great reader (must take after her mommy ;)
the same day, Genin attended "Nate the Great" in Uniontown with his 3rd grade class and Cameron performed in his spring band concert. That was one busy day!!
Dislikes of the Week
Bulletproof by La Roux...I absolutely detest this song! Not sure if it is the singer's hair, makeup or accent that you can clearly hear in the song...2 very unenthusiastic thumbs down on this one!
More week....
Matlyn went for her 1 week appointment this week. Everything looked great although they like for the infant to be back up to birthweight. Not only was she not back up, she had lost 2 more ounces. She has to go for a follow-up appointment.
Cameron went on his band trip to Hershey Park. They performed in a competition and then hit the theme park. He and his friends had a ball!! They especially loved the water ride that was similiar to the Pittsburgh Plunge at Kennywood or as Cameron says, "Picture the Pittsburgh Plunge, but add 10 times more water!!" I am so glad that he had this opportunity with the band and had such a great time :)
The same day, Kaplyn had a soccer game and Genin had his U10 soccer tournament. Both did great as usual. They only have 1 more game of the season. U12 game was Sunday (even after the all night Hershey trip) They still did very well even on practically no sleep!
Kaplyn, Reiner and Brandis attended their friend Gavin's birthday party at the PA Trolley Museum (wow, 2 trips in 1 month) It was nice for me (to enjoy as a guest and not the host this time) Trolley ride, homemade popcorn (my friend Stacey, Gavin's mom makes it), kids hitting a pinata...couldn't get much better!
Lost and Found
Lost: our septic tank...actually we just never really knew where it was...last seen in our back yard by the former owners of our house who were nice enough to give us the wrong location.
Found: our septic tank...also 7 cents, 3 bullets and an aluminum can tab by our friend Tony and his trusty metal detector.
Hoping to stay up-to-date...see you next time!
