Wow, what a tall fire fighter!!

Yesterday, we visited the Northport No. 1 Fire Station for John Brady's birthday. Since the weather was questionable, with the snow and all, our party number was a little small. Thanks to all who could make it to the party. Also, we were minus Nanny due to the flu!!! Nanny felt horrible that she couldn't make it to her baby boy's party. We had a fun time at the fire station and we learned a lot. Boy, I am so thankful we have those guys watching out for us and our homes 24/7. We are so blessed to live in the USA and have such a service available to us.

After the fire station tour, we enjoyed pizza, cake, and ice cream at our house. I bought one of those helium balloon kits and Brady inflated balloons for all of the children. Most of the remaining party was spent rescuing the balloons from our ceiling!! Uncle Stuart rigged our flood light changing apparatus so he could capture the balloons. Uncle Stuart is a smart man!


Well, I can not believe my little man is 3 years old!! My baby is growing up too fast!! What's a mother to do?

First Graders!!!

This week Emma announced Mason was no longer her boyfriend and she has a new boyfriend! I asked who was the "new" boyfriend and she said Rye (a classmate). Emma asked did I know that if you have too much memory your brain will get too big and it will explode! She said Rye told her that! Not sure if (a) Rye, "as the new boyfriend", shared this insightful info with Emma or (b) Rye impressed Emma with his plefora of knowledge, therefore he became the new boyfriend !!

He's Not Supposed To
