Happy 6th Birthday Dominic

Well, my little boy turned

6 on June 17th. So hard

to believe. From his

first Birthday to his 6th......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOMINIC!

We love you SO very much!

He had a Batman Birthday this year. He picks a new theme every year. Thanks to his creative Aunt Janet he had a really cool Batman cake & cookies. Gino loved the cookies best I think..... he couldn't wait to taste them.

Luckily he didn't have to wait long

Dominic got lots of Batman things & a new Nerf Dart Game. As you can see he was having a pretty good time. Most of the family got to be there this year too which is unusual. Uncle Tom & Aunt Alisha were visiting from CA & so was his Aunt Lori & cousins CJ & Anna from NC.

The boys have enjoyed the corn growing ALL around our house. It's quite taller now, I'll have to take another picture. I can remember playing in the cornfields around my house growing up as a child... what fun living in the country is!

Both my mom & Andy's mom had their knee surgeries.... same day same doctor. And both are healing well. The grandkids all enjoy their canes & walkers!

We've been getting in some good 'ol fashioned pool time lately. The weather has been perfect for basking in the sun! Dominic jumped right in w/his arm floaties on. Took a little convincing & dunking to get Gino in, but once we did look out! There's no keeping him out now.

Dominic finished off his first T-Ball season w/a trophy & ice cream! I think he enjoyed it for the most part. He says he doesn't want to play again, but he may change his mind. We're not pushing it. He can choose to try whatever he wants. Lets just get through Kindergarten first.

We did get Dominic's class list for next year. He will have Mrs. Knight as his teacher (she was also Andy's 3r grade teacher). I am VERY happy about that. AND we found out that his best friend, Gunner, from pre-school will also be in his class! He was VERY happy to hear that! (I was too). It helped ease my mind to know that he wouldn't be alone in a huge class without anyone he knew. There's also a little girl from his pre-school class that he liked.

Now time to prepare for Gino turning 3 .....oh my! Let's just hope he keeps to his word & decides to finally potty train on his "summerday". He keeps telling me he's gonna stop wearing diapers & be a big boy.
