My little Speedster

Tom got Jack a racing Kart. He wanted to get him started in something with speed. Jack loves racing things. So here is my little guy all suited up! He absolutely loves it. These are just in a parking lot but they will going to a race track for Karting next week.

Two thumbs up!!!


Also, we were at a party at the neighbors on Sat. He has a huge one every year and always has some event for the kids. He has done pony rides, the reptile guy, and small animal guy. So this year he really wanted something different. So he did camel rides.




He went on about 5 times. Now who can say they rode a camel!!
We have just been trying to find ways to keep busy. Over the weekend Jack had a water balloon fight with some neighbor boys. That was not fun fulling those things up. He has been going in the sprinkler and slip N slide today. Next week he had Vacation Bible School. It is only in the morning so we still need to find something to do in the afternoons. Hopefully it will get a bit warmer out.

4th of July

I don't have any pictures to share. I can't even tell you the last time the 4th was a wash out with rain. It did finally stop raining around 8:00 so at least people were able to set off fireworks.

We went to our friends house the LaBuda's. The just had a baby girl so their house isn't equipt with toys. They has set up a jumpy outside but it was soaked. They were freaking out a bit at what all these kids were going to do inside. Somehow the kids just found stuff. There were enough of them that they made stuff up. There was a pool table in the basement and somehow rolling balls back and forth is super fun! After it stopped raining we had to let the kids go outside. yes they got wet but what are you going to do. It was cold too! There were a lot of fireworks by their house so they got to see plenty.

Overall it was a great day. I am still getting over a bad cold and didn't feel the best but I sucked it up and made it thru. We got home round 10:40.

Catching up

Well I have been MIA. I was going through some issues with stress and anxiety and I just had to take a break from everything for a while. I am feeling much better so hopefully I will update more.

Jack turned 5 on May 1st! He had a kids party at Pump it Up and then a small family party. My mom has been begging me to get Jack's birthday picutes up. So here you go mom!




Jack got 4 gold fish for his birhtday. One died the night he put them in. He loves them. He goes up and kisses the bowl. He named them Tom, Jerry, Hider Fish (because he was hiding in the castle thing) and Goldie was the fish that died.


Daddy got a new vintage motorcycle that he is going to rebuild. Here is Jack on it.


My big boy also graduated from 4 yr old preschool. Isn't he cute with is little hat. He can't wait to go to Kindergarten on the big bus!


Daddy also got Jack a go cart that they can take out to the track. They started practicing in a big parking lot and he loves it. They will go to the go cart track when he is more comfortable. I haven't seen them yet. Tom says it is too cute. Jack loves anything that has to do with speed. He is always zooming around the house making car noises. Then on the other hand Jack also loves flowers and yard work. He loves to help pick weeds and water the flowers. He even knows how to dead head the flowers. He loves to color flowers, hearts and rainbows. Daddy is a little bothered by this! LOL...hence the go cart!
Due to me not feeling well we haven't done anything really fun yet this summer. Plus the weather hasn't been the best either. Jack has had swimming lessons and a short day camp one week. He has vacation bible school in a couple of weeks. Tom has a lot of days to take off so hopefully we can get some fun stuff in.
