Daddy's Song

Happy Birthday to Rachel's favorite Daddy!  We had a great time celebrating Tommy's birthday at the Italian American Club with my folks, as well a few other friends!

 Rachel & I made a birthday cake at home for Tommy, but we didn't eat it till we came home from the wonderful party at the IAC... since they changed chef's the food there is FABULOUS!

Let's Have a Party

Still can't believe we spent a whole weekend at Chuck-e-Cheese for some birthday parties!  On Saturday, we had our first party and Nana came since it was her "Cancer Buddy" Gloria's granddaughter!

 She was actually trying to "strike a pose" or two... lol..

This was WAY more fun than she expected!

 And the very next day, it was time to celebrate yet again, with Chuck!  

Dora

Dora came to town... or at least a REALLY scary version of Dora!!!  Isn't this the most terrifying Dora you have ever seen????  I'm SO glad my kid wasn't silly enough to fall for this one but she still had a GREAT time! Dora the Explorer needs to explore a new costume shop!

Pulling Teeth

My brave little girl... She needed a "baby root canal" which apparently is very different from a grown up root canal... but she was actually so good about it that the Dr asked if she could do ALL the work needed now instead of splitting it into 2 visits (She needed a couple of fillings too). 

She actually handled it better this visit than she did when they were only taking xrays and cleaning her teeth!

School Days

It's time to get back to school! 

 She's telling Nana all about her day at school!  She is SO happy to be back at Temple Judea for her last year. Won't be long now before she is off to "Big Kid School"...
