Can you tell the difference?

Can you tell the difference in these two little boys??

I'll give you a hint.

The boy in the first pic would NEVER be that close to a teacher that he just met and he wouldn't be smiling SOOO big!!

The boy in pic number one (which was taken about a month ago) would have been hiding behind his mommy's leg and pouting.

Jamie has changed so much in the last month, it's very surprising. He went from being my shy guy to confident and outgoing overnight, it seems. It makes letting him go to Kindergarten tomorrow much easier because I know that he is going to have tons of fun and make lots of friends. Yes, I am trying to convince myself, not you.

Yesterday we went to open house at his school and met his teacher, Ms. Holmes. She seems super nice and I think they are a perfect fit. She is sweet and soft spoken. On the way home he told me, "my teacher, Ms. HOMES is pretty".

I think it is going to be a GREAT year!!!

Summer vacation is almost over

We only have two more days of summer vacation. What else do you do on one of the last days? When it is raining?

Go fishing at the pier, of course!! Even Boomer went. James caught a huge ray or skate (I can't tell the difference), it was pretty cool. Mike looks pretty proud of it, doesn't he??

I posted the pic of Boomer swimming because I know that no one would believe it without seeing it!

Tonight we went to Mike's school for open house. It was very hot and crowded there. We met one of his teachers. It was nice for him to see his buddy's that he hasn't seen in a while.

Tomorrow we go to Jamie's open house and meet his teacher. I promise to try not to cry!

Ok, Ok, here are the pics!!

Here's a teaser to keep you coming back.

It may take me a while to get the hang of posting pics. But, I will figure it out!

First Blog Ever!

This is my very first blog. How exciting for me!

Almost every day I read my ebay friend Rachel's blog and almost every day I say "I am going to start a blog." Then the next time I read Rachel's blog I say "oh yeah, I was going to start a blog, I am going to start one today" then the next day.... you know.

Well, today is the big day! I actually started a blog!

I am hoping this blog will help the people that I miss like crazy in NY keep up with all our going on's.

Of course, I know little to nothing about making a blog so be patient with me while I figure it out. Soon, mine will be as cool and entertaining as Rachel's. I hope.
