Mandalorian Hats

We lucked out and got reservations for Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland. We have a cool Boba Fett hat that we bought 9 years ago in Disney World. I thought that PE should wear that, but I wanted something to match. So I decided to make a hat for me based on Sabine Wren from Star Wars: Rebels. I had a month or so to make it, so I wasn't in a big rush and did a little bit at a time.

Well, about two weeks away from our trip, PE said (jokingly) that a really good mom would make hats for all her kids. Well, that got the ball rolling and we decided it would be pretty awesome if we all had Mandalorian hats to wear. And so my life was suddenly filled with painting hats during every spare moment.

P1's hat: Jango Fett 

P2's hat: another version of Sabine Wren

P3's hat: Tristan Wren (Sabine's brother)

5 hats all ready to go!

June 1-9

One morning we looked on our Wyze cam and found that P3 had taken off his pajamas. He was jumping up and down on his bed in just his diaper. I quickly went to get him, and found he had a very poopy diaper. I was very grateful that he hadn't taken his diaper off!

We have had a laid back summer so far. It has been nice to not have to take the kids to school every day. We have had a few friends over to play, and our goal is to have P1 and P2 each invite a friend over at least once a week this summer.

Our van was in the shop on Friday, so we hung out at Grandma's house for most of the day. They love playing at Grandma's house!

May 20-31

P3 loves to read P2's books, watch shows, and eat treats:

There was no kindergarten the second to last week of school. Each child had to come in at a certain time for an end of year assessment. Here's P3 waiting while P1 was doing his test.

P3 playing in the dirt. We've been trying to take this stump out, but it is a stubborn one. It is also close to the gas line, so we have to be super careful.

P1 starts tee-ball next week, so we have been practicing: 

My boys:

Lounging around on a Saturday:

P3 all ready to go to school! He is such a big kid at heart! And super adorable!

My sister dropped by one afternoon and brought a bag of kick balls with her.  The kids really enjoyed playing with them.

 

Dad and P2 made a house for her dolls: 

Once again P3 tried to sneak into someone else's bed:

On the last day of carpool, we stopped to get ice cream cones. It ended up being quite a hassle. They didn't have the soft serve ice cream ready, so we had to wait for that. When I tried to pay for it, their credit card machine stopped working. So I had to come back later to pay for it in cash. And P3 ended up eating half of the paper that was on his ice cream cone.

Last kindergarten drop off! I can't believe how fast the school year went by!

Preschool Graduation

P2 had her preschool graduation program. She was very excited for it, and had practiced her part. She really wanted P1 to see the program, so we brought him along since he had no school that day. P3 was left at a friends house, and he was quite sad about that.

The program had barely started, when P2 suddenly burst into tears and ran up to me and put her face in my lap. She wouldn't get up and wouldn't talk to me. About 3 songs into the program, she finally calmed down and went back up. After the program we finally figured out why she was upset. She was sad that her flag wasn't straight.

They did one song where they stomped around like big dinosaurs. P2 had hard time getting the shoes and hat on (mostly because of her headband), and I could tell she was close to losing it again, so I went up to help her. She did great the rest of the program though!

 

They did a bunch of nursery rhymes, and P2 was the little dog who laughed in Hey Diddle, Diddle. She had a really silly laugh to go with it!

Her main part was doing Little Miss Muffet, and she did a great job!

P2 has loved preschool, and loves her teacher. She said that she wants to be a mom and take care of a house when she grows up.

Great job P2! We love you!
