Jymani's 1st Field Trip!

Today Jymani went to the Apple Orchard with his class!  Daddy went along for some fun with our little Buddy and his classmates and teachers!  Jymani said he had so much fun and he wants to go again!  Jymani came home with pumpkins and apples!  He was able to feed the animals and go on a hayride!  Daddy said that Jymani was really well behaved! I am so proud of him and I want to send a special thanks to Ms. Monroe and Mrs Valdez for taking such good care of my baby boy while he is at school!!!

Buddie & Buddy



Our neighbor Buddie loved to come over and say hello to our "Buddy" Jymani.  He thought it was so cool that Jymani's nickname was the same as his real name!  Buddie past away September 24 and he will greatly be missed!  So Buddie this post is for you! This is Buddie taking "Buddy" on a little ride.............

Jymani started kindergarten on September 14, 2010



Jymani had a great first day of school!  There were some bumps in the road, but that is to be expected!  Look at his warm welcoming when he got off the bus after his first day!

Jymani got a hat to match his shirt!!

This week we planned on taking Jymani to the fair...but unfortunately he had 2 seizures in one week and we didn't want to risk it.  (We almost made it to the 3 month mark of being seizure free!  I really was beginning to think that maybe we finally had them under control.)  So instead we picked him up some fun things from the fair.  We had a hat made especially for him to match the shirt we had made for him last year!  And of course we picked him up a huge blow up spider man!  He thinks that is really cool!  Today we met the social worker from his school and they are very excited about Jymani starting kindergarten next week!! (As are we!!)  Jymani finally received his cooling vest and now we will see how well it works at keeping him cool to avoid the heat induced seizures...let's keep our fingers crossed!

Jymani fell asleep watching Phineas & Ferb...lol!!!

JyMaNi LoSt HiS 1St tOOth!!!!!

My little "Buudy" is growing up so fast!  Today he lost his very first tooth!  He is talking with a little lisp now and he keeps sticking his tongue where the tooth used to be!  It is so cute!  Today was a beautiful day and I took Jymani and Jyacia to Como Town to ride the rides and play on the slides........All was well until it was time to go!  Needless to say, the tooth "fell out" in the middle of his temper tantrum!!!!

{7/23/10-7/25/10} ...a small family Vacation.

This weekend we went camping (in a cabin) in Tomahawk WI.  Jymani was able to play in the lake and he had so much fun!  He was a little fish and we got some great pictures of the fun he was having!!

He loved splashing the water and watching it come back up at him!!

We decided to have this Old Time portrait done of the kids while visiting the shops in Minocqua, WI.  The kids had a blast dressing up and posing for the pictures!!!
