Done with Kindergarten already?

Just can't believe that my little Gabey Gabe is heading into the 1st grade.  He had an amazing year in Kindergarten with Teacher Emily.  What an amazing, patient, caring person.  It takes a very special person to work with people with special needs and she is definitely that person!  We have been so lucky to have her!  Gabe loves school and really loved his teacher and the teacher assistants this year.  We are really sad and maybe even a bit scared to move on to another teacher.  Gabe will be going to a new school next year with a new teacher.

Proud of you Gabe!

Field Trip!

Gabe's class went on a field trip to the Children's Discovery Museum at the Gateway.  I surprised Gabe and showed up at his school to join them.  He was in computer lab when I snuck in.

He was so excited when he saw me!

He thought it was really cool that I went on the bus with him.

When we got there they divided the kids up into groups and put colored vests on them.  We went to different area's of the museum for an allotted amount of time.  There was so much to see and do there.  I really enjoyed watching Gabe explore everything and learn how things worked.

Even checking out the doghouse....LOL!

This was really cool, you would put the ball in the pipe and air would blow it up and it would travel thru a pipe maze and come out the other end.  

There was a play farm, fire truck, water contraptions...

He played a fireman and a construction worker

Building blocks on a vibrating plate....

He even got to be a news anchor and a weather man!  He love seeing himself on the screen!

Once the field trip was over Gabe and I decided to take Trax home instead of riding the school bus back to his school.  He thought that was pretty cool too.

What a fun day with my Gabey Gabe!

He lost another tooth!

Gabe lost his 2nd tooth.  Well actually he didn't really lose it, I had to pull it out.  That is the 1st tooth I have ever pulled and and it gave me the heebee jeebees!  Vinnie always takes care of that kinda stuff all the way since Austin lost his 1st tooth BUT he was out of town this time and it was driving Gabe nuts! Gabe kept telling me he had an ouey and wanted me to kiss it better.  Turns out his tooth was super loose.  I grabbed a paper towel, folded it, grabbed his tooth and pulled it out.  When I was done he said "that's better".

He's a Leader!!!

I knew it!  I knew my little guy was Leader!  Gabe came home from school so proud of himself today.  He was excited to show me his award that he had received.  Of course I cried, I was so happy and proud of my Gabey!

Happy Easter!

The kids woke up to their normal candy trail leading them from their rooms to their Easter baskets.  It's always such a surprise to them to walk out of their rooms and see candy all over the floor.  They almost don't know what to do.

They found their baskets and immediately started going thru them and then looking at what each other had in theirs.  They quickly discovered that there were 3 more baskets waiting for them on the dining room table.  (Grandma and Grandpa left those out for them)

After that we all got ready to go to Church.  As soon as Abby was ready she wanted to use her new camera that came in her basket.

After Church we headed off to the park for an Easter Egg hunt.  Aunties, Uncle, Grandma, Grandpa, and cousins went a little bit before we did so they could hide all of the eggs.
