We have been having a very blessed year.

I got my raise and a nice bonus, plus an ipad I was refusing to buy.

Gerard finished kindergarten with high grades. 

We got a new car to replace our very old one.

Gerard naturally lost two baby teeth over the summer.

Aubrey lost two baby teeth in an accident. 

At the last minute, Aubrey was accepted into transitional kindergarten at Noriega school nearby.

And then at another last minute made it into the after school care program, even though it costs more than your preschool tuition.

Papa got offered a permanent job.

Acquired replacement game boy ds lite and game gear.

We have been getting extra income from photography.

Count your blessings. 

After a whole summer of being on a waiting list, miss Aubrey is finally accepted into transitional kinder at our first choice of school....in the nick of time....any day later we find out, we'd be out of town and miss enrollment! First day is on Monday already!! 

Congrats girl!!!

I love you aubrey for your honesty. As i left for work this morning i kissed you goodbye. You liked my shirt and asked if i was going to work in it. I said yes, "is it good for work?" You told me it looked like house clothes! 

Singing In Japanese?!

Dropped off the kids at grandma and grandpa's today. They told me how Aubrey was singing in Japanese the other day, so I asked her to sing it for me.

Being put in the spot, she got shy. I carried her, and she whispered the song to my ears. It was Let It Go, in "Japanese." Except it was just all made up. Hahahah. Funny girl. I love you.

The Tooth About Summer....

Gerard's first tooth fell out on the last day of kindergarten.
A second tooth is so loose, it will fall off any day now. 1st grade starts in just over a week.

On Thursday Gerard went to work with me and on our drive home,  he asked what his last name would be when he marries Ella. "Will it be Hernandez bloom?" And he continued to say I could live with them!

Gerard just woke up and told me about a nightmare that he woke up from. We were at  snowed beach and he was making snow angels. The snow melted and turned into the sea swallowing the land. We got on a boat and said goodbye to America. He didn't know where we were going and then he woke up.

He said this was the scariest dream he's ever had.
