Update

Gentry gave me a pat and wave as she went off to Sunbeams today!  A breakthrough for our shy little one who barely attended nursery in the whole year and half she was of age.  Makes me sad to think I have no little ones in nursery and very glad at the same time.  I love that they all get to attend well-structured, unchaotic primary.

Lauren got to spend another eventful sleepover at grandma's house and spend the next day with grandma and then aunt Molly.  She has always been the most extroverted and excited to go - anywhere.  I love that I know she is alright.  (Whereas Gentry happily will wave goodbye to Lauren, but if you mention her going on a sleepover, she wants nothing of it.)

Vincent is kicking off Little League again this week - playing for the Tampa Bay Rays this year.  Several of the same teammates from last year and I am co-team mom again this year. 

Hadley had the most eventful week of all, I imagine.  A while back Chris and I noticed what we thought might be a callous on her left middle finger.  After watching it for sometime, I took her to the doctor who referred us to an orthopaedic surgeon who recommended surgery to remove the bone mass.  We jumped on doing it sooner than later - mostly to prevent her from being stressed and preoccupied about it.  Met surgeon on Tues, another on Wed, and surgery on Thursday.  She did it with flying colors - I was so proud of her, and happy that she was made drowsy and asleep for the worst parts of it.  Her entire hand (except for a thumb) and most of her forearm now in a cast for two weeks - school should be interesting, seeing as she is left-handed.  Tomorrow will tell!

Update

Disneyland disneyland disneyland!  We finally broke down and paid the exorbitant price for Disney passes a couple weeks ago - and I couldn't be happier.  I truly love going and visiting the place and exploring all the new places and shows to go to.  It helps that Molly got a pass as well.  We have spent the last two Friday nights there as a family and A.Molly.  It was a difficult decision but after deciding to pull Lauren from her preschool and then not finding another one that I like and realizing the cost per month was nearly the same as purchasing passes for the entire family for a year, we took the dive.  In the last few weeks since we've had them, I've taken the kids after school and just Gentry and Lauren before school let out.  It has always been great and I hope that the little ones remember our season of passes (mostly due to the fact that it is unlikely we will get them ever again.)
