leep stars

today rocked.  TOTALLY...

boy band

a + h = bff!

air "cuh-tar"

rehearsals

the whole she-bang band!

of course, he wore plaid.  don't all rockers?!

my all-time favorite one hit wonder.

memba me?

long time no see.  i sooooo regret that i've not blogged in sooooo long, but lately it's taken what minimal amount of energy remains for me to simply function without falling to pieces.  thankfully, i'm at a transition point within the madness, so i can actually come up for a bit of air.  yay.

nonetheless, i'm exhausted beyond belief, so i'm keeping things brief.  just wanted to note a new tendency of the kid.  he recently started adding "i have to tell/ask you something" before most of what comes outta his precious motor little mouth.  tonight...

"mom, i have to tell you something."

yes?

"i love you."

while certainly not the funniest or most original words he's spoken, they couldn't have been timed better or appreciated more than at the tail end of what had been a horrendously stressful day.

in the spirit of today's dress code & tonight's big game...i love DAT boy!

kay four

henro's school year is off to a fantastic start!  i've received such great reports from his teacher the past two days that i'm almost questioning if she's got the right kid pegged as mine.  perfect behavior.  listens & follows instructions.  sits still.  HUH?!?!?!  assuming she is, in fact, talkin bout my monster little darling, i'm majorly proud.  

now for a pictorial account of day one o' prek-4...an unabridged pictorial account.  lol ;)

check.  check.  check.  now for the fun part...

master henro, this is your wakeup call.

he's entirely too happy in the morning to be my child.  seriously.

mama's boy.  oh, how i love him so!!

henro has left the building.

let's roll.

ta dah!

scouting new turf

henro's PRECIOUS teacher.  we already love her!

cubby+cutie

yay!  a new friend (and snappy dresser).  cue mom's exit.

fast forward 5.5 hours...during which time i breakfasted (huh?) with several great new mom friends, got my p+ev on, finished up some junior league & just ducky shenanigans work, and made at least one cc's run.  solo productivity is a beautiful thing. 

bring on car line...or not.  georgie & mimi parked and retrieved the star student on foot...

hey, there!  how was your day?  did you make some new
friends? what did you learn?  was it fun?  did you eat lunch?
you know the drill...

"georgie, why are you here?"  asked in the nicest of ways, of course.

cheese!!! speaking of...let's hit mcd's, i'm hungry!

from start to finish, it was a great day!  well, except for the parts when i felt as though both arms were missing and sobbed my eyes out.  that kinda sucked.  BUT...i survived and couldn't be prouder of my big boy!

the love of my life.  i heart you, sweet boy!

tis the season!

evolution

the more things change, the more things remain the same...

august 2008 - first day o' prek-3

august 2009 - first day of prek-4 point five
(aka:  prek-4 one half...prek-4 practice run...etc)

august 2010 - first day of prek-4

we'll eventually have to switch the "who's holding who" scenario.  or maybe not...depends how dedicated i remain to the whole pilates plus evolution thing.  for now i'm holding strong.  pun intended :)

stay tuned, as a more in depth "first day o' school" post is forthcoming...i just need to find my brain.  ahh sooooooo ridonkulously tired!!!!!!
