May Madness!

We certainly have been busy this month. We went to two first communions (Jocelyn's and Allie's), two graduations and had a garage sale. Mom got a new camera for Mother's Day and she loves it A LOT. Still getting used to the video part, so it's sideways - again. The computer for some reason won't rotate it. Anyway, enough of the problems.
As you can see we had a ton of stuff for the garage sale. Almost made $250 - which is awesome considering we were selling .50 items. We also got to visit Aunts Beth and Brandy for their graduations. They are doctors now - but I would probably only trust one if you are having a medical issue - I'll let you decide which one.
My big sister Ellen had a fun program at school where they sang her favorite song "Firetruck". We videoed it but she was in the back so it won't be posted.
Let’s see… unfortunately we don’t have a ton of pics of the graduation nor the First Communions, you’ll have to contact the honorees to see them.
Besides that, things are going well. We’re looking forward to a fun summer! Hope to see you all soon.
Enjoy the videos: me showing off sitting up while Ellen takes pictures with a domino; Ellen jumping on the tramp with Grandma Ficek; and Ellen tackling a blow up weeble doll.

Baptism

Well I'm officially Catholic. I was Baptized on April 26. Mom dressed me in this white "girly" gown which I was not fond of, so I decided to sleep through the whole ceremony - I even snored a little when Father Frank poured the water on my head. Uncle Joe and Aunt Mel are my Godparents and did a splendid job. We had lots of visitors which is always fun. The Grandparents all came, and the cousins from my dad's side all made it too. However, my Mom was not amused that cousins Griffin and Liam showed up at our house wearing North Carolina gear. Not amused AT ALL. But she fixed them right up when they left their shirts unattended. The shirts now sport the mighty KU logo and a gentle reminder of the KU - UNC score (84 to 66).

Before the big event, my Auntie Beth came to visit and play with us. So my Big Sister Ellen and I met our friends Eve and Tommy at the local gymnastics gym for a play date. WOW - that was fun. There were lots of cushy mats and fun things to play on and with. Mom was so close to doing back handsprings again - but she didn't which is for the best.

Talk to you all soon!
