End Of Summer Fun!!

We headed to Ocean City MD for a last of the season blowout and had a great time!! The whole trip was perfect from start to finish and we all came back rested and relaxed!! Jude was so awesome in the car for six hours, I was amazed!! When we got there we had lunch - we had a room with a full kitchen so with Jude's allergy's we could do breakfast and lunch in! We then headed to the boardwalk just to look around and of course our water baby ran into the ocean clothes on- and me not being prepared had no extra clothes!! We ended up wrapping him in my pink sweater and taking him back to the hotel!! We then went out and hit the boardwalk again and just relaxed with some hot coco's and felt the ocean breeze! The next day we found this donut shop called the Fractured Prune, where you pick what you want and they make it hot and fresh -- AMAZING! We decided to let Jude have a donut - but he didn't even eat it! Then to the beach for some fun! We rented a bike car and the funniest thing was that my feet didn't even touch the pedals! Then the hotel pool and to an AMAZING dinner at the Shark restaurant! They are all organic and fresh from the area and the food was just amazing -we went back for lunch the next day! The we headed home back home to reality!!

Football Season!!

Football season is here again!! We went downtown to the season opener concert held by the NFL, to honor the hometown Super bowl team! Kevin, Jude and a friend from my work went and we had a blast. The Black Eyed Peas and Tim McGraw were there along with a lot of past players! Jude was dancing to the Peas and clapping - it was so cute! The best part is that The Steelers won the opener and scored the first points of the season!!! GO STILLERSSSSSSSS!!!!

Back To School!

Jude had his first day of Preschool on Wednesday! He is in a new classroom and has a new teacher! Jude also has a class pet named George in his classroom- they are allowed to feed him pumpkin seeds, so I am sure if Jude's around George will be gaining a little bit of weight this year! Jude's friend from last year is in his class, but I found out at coffee with his mom that they are moving in a month to Detroit! I am super bummed because Jude and I like their family so much! We will miss them! I hope this year is as good as last and that he will grow and learn and be the smartest 3 year old around!

WOW!

I don't really know what to say about this weekend! Kevin met his half sisters for the first time and his mom for the second time in 13 years! Kevin did not have a great childhood - putting that lightly- and for him this was a major moment! He did not know about his sisters until about 3 years ago and had talked on the phone to them a few times after that. Kevin's grandfather wanted to get them all together and no one can say no to Papa, so they met. Kevin had a great time with his sister's - his mom a little bit- but this whole thing brought up a lot of emotions that will take some time to get over. Please keep Kevin in your thoughts for the next couple weeks, and hope that this time will be better than the last time she came back.
