Hi.

Welcome!

Donovan is so funny =)  One of his favorite phrases right now is "holy guacamole!"  I have no idea where he learned it, but it's adorable.  He also likes to say "akaboochie."  I am not entirely sure what it means, but it usually makes me smile because it's accompanied by a big grin and a silly glint in his eye.

 

He has possibly decided on a plan for decorating his room: Superheroes!  At first it was going to be Batman, then he expanded to the whole justice league, now he really wants it to be all kinds of superheroes so he can have X-men, Skylanders, Pokemon, the whole kit and caboodle.  The fun part was, when I started looking into ideas for his room and showing it to him, he asked if he could "research" for his room too.  So I have gotten my four year old addicted to pinterest.  =)

 

He is a very thoughtful boy.  This month Maia discovered pbskids.org.  She can't play the games by herself, she hasn't quite mastered the mouse.  But she can point out the answers on the screen to all the letter questions and letter sounds.  A couple of times when Mama was done being Maia's mouse, Donovan took over and clicked for her for a long time!  So sweet =)

At school we had a 100th Day of School party for Donovan's class.  It was a blast!  I brought 100 solo cups, and Eric helped the kids build huge towers out of them and knock them down.  This was a huge hit =)  They also got to make crowns with 100 stars on them, and use 100 star stickers, and make a snack out of 100 different snack items.  Add some delicious fruit and some favors and it was a great day!

DZ with his buddy Hatcher =) Donovan tells me often that he and Hatcher both love red, and when he grows up he and Hatcher will be cousins. =)

Digging in the rice =) The construction toys worked really well in the rice bucket! =)

For Valentine's day I filled the rice bucket with hearts, bracelets, and some valentine gummy candies =)

All ready for Tie Dye Tuesday at the book fair... until we discovered Serenity had pink eye and needed to stay home.
