Preschool Graduation

Here is where I bore you with all of my Proud Momma pictures of Caleb's preschool graduation.  Love it or hate it.  Either way, I'm sharing them!  

After a pot luck dinner, everybody watched a slide show.  I took pictures of a few of the photos of Caleb.


Why am I not surprised that there are so many pictures of him building with Legos?


This is hard to see, but they are inside of this huge "space bubble" made out of trash bags and blown up with a big fan.  He's dressed in astronaut gear, complete with soda bottle oxygen tanks!


The kids were taught to line up to receive their diploma with their right arm out and their left arm behind their back.  It was hysterical to watch them!  Note the progression of the kids here in these next few...





Yeah, not a single kid is doing what he/she is supposed to be doing now!


My graduate...sigh!


His arms went back into position for the handshakes! 


receiving his diploma


Caleb gave each of his teacher spontaneous hugs on stage.  Melt. My. Heart.  The boy can be so sweet!




The graduating class of 2012! 


Several times on the way home, Caleb commented on being "a little sad" that preschool is over.  He is definitely a sentimental boy, and he said he's going to miss his teachers.  He got his sappiness from his momma!

Cerebrocostomandibular Syndrome

If you happen to pick up the latest Reader's Digest, there is an article in there about Piper Breinholt , a four year old with CCMS.  If you've been around here a while, you'll remember wayyyyyy back when we first received Abby's diagnosis that I was able to speak to Piper's mom, Reagan.  The article is more about their story and not as much about the ins and outs of CCMS, but I think it's probably enough to get some people googling it and I'm hoping a few will end up here. Every once in a while, I give a blog post the title of Cerebrocostomandibular Syndrome so that it would show up in Google.  My ever-present hope is that people will stumble across my blog and 1) be encouraged by the hope we have in Christ, 2) feel a connection with someone in a similar situation as them, or 3) get excited over the miracles that have been performed in Abby's life!!  (a combination of all 3 is great too!)  :)   Notice that it's not to get famous and it never wi

The Potty Man

Caleb LOVES to go potty! I have never heard a potty training story like this one....Caleb tells us when he needs to go, we take his diaper off, and he goes! Now, is it perfect? No, not at all! We aren't trying to potty train at at all, but we figure every time he goes is one less diaper we have to change! The only time we consistantly put him on the potty is when we give him a bath (he always pees in the tub, so we know he needs to go!) He almost always goes on the potty now instead of the tub though. When he's not "really" going potty, he's pretending to go potty! He's such a funny kid!

Lego Party: Favors

I'm a little slow in posting the Lego Party pictures, but I think I have a few excuses I could use.  At any rate, I wanted to share what I did for the party!  It will take a few posts, so stay with me.  I'll start with how I did the favors. These are the goody bags I made.  I just bought solid colored gift bags and matched scrapbook paper to each bag.  Then I punched circles and attached them with the 3D foam tape so that the circles were raised. I used the keychain (explained below) as a name tag on the outside. These are Duplo blocks.  I put a round magnet on the back and...voila!  A magnet!  (note:  hot glue doesn't work so well...I ended up reglueing them with my apoxy because the magnets fell off.) I made crayons using Lego man crayons.  Yes, I know this guy has lost half of his leg.  The others were already packaged and I didn't want to open one up just to get a picture.  I used a Lego mold  to make the crayons.  Caleb put small pieces of crayon in each m
