August/ Collin's Birthday Celebrations



August means back to school and Collin went back to the same church school that he attended last year, now Tue, Wed & Thurs. He was happy to have a lot of his same friends again in his 3-yr-old class this year. It took quite a long time to get used to the new teachers, having been home with mommy all summer, but eventually he learned to love Ms. Mary & Ms. Jenn as much as he did with Ms. Zoe & Ms. Judy from his 2-yr-old class.

We are so lucky to have both sets of grandparents visit Collin for this birthday! This year Mike's parents came first and we celebrated with a lasagna dinner, cupcakes and opening gifts. School is back in session the week of Collin's birthday so we brought cupcakes to school to celebrate with his school friends.

My parents arrived just in time for his actual birthday (Aug 31st) and we celebrated by going to The Children's Museum, which Collin loves!

That afternoon we hosted a fire truck themed party for some friends at our neighborhood pool. He was thrilled to have his friends together for pizza and cake but wanted to leave fairly soon afterwards so he could open presents with Nana & Papa. While my parents were here we also attended a concert on Labor Day. Concerts and museums are two of Collin's favorite outings, which makes him sound like a pretty cultured kid.
