YEA!

Pat did it! He graduated and walked the stage :)

Gramps, Mimi, Abuela, Megan, Katie, Alex and I were witnesses at the Liaicorious Center :)

We all went to the reception at Klein Hall and then over for graduation. Alex did a lot of running around with Abuela, Mimi, Megan and Katie but at the end when it was time, was a champ and got up on stage with Pat to receive the pledge for his degree. Patrick was also honored for his membership in the Rubin Public Interest Law Honor Society.

We are all proud of him and his accomplishments :)

Pat's Interview

Today, Pat had his first after law school job interview. It was with the government for a 2 year intern position with the Immigration Department. He said everything went well and he was asked 11 questions. Officially he will hear back in a month. After that he will be subject to a 2 month security check and then possibly offered the job in Philadelphia.

So that's the job front update.

Boys' Day

Today, Alex and Pat had all day together because Tara needed off. The boys went to a Moonbounce place for 2 hours. After 2 hours of running, sliding, bouncing, and chasing each other, the boys had a good lunch and eventually Alex went for a nap.

When I came home from work, both boys were tired but happy :)

Rainy days

With a rainy Monday, we needed to do something to keep our sanity and wear Alex out for the evening. So.... we took him to Bette's and let him run around for a bit. Our $5 coupon allowed Alex to run around, play with a kitchen set, slide the big slide, and bounce with Daddy. Needless to say, the last one brought the most laughs and smile from Alex.
Afterwards, he ate a HUGE dinner and relaxed before bed.

Mother's Day Fun!

For Mother's Day, Abuelos and us went to the Philadelphia Zoo. There we saw A LOT of animals :) Alex seemed interested but overwhelmed. However, he was a real trooper and did great. His biggest excitement was chasing the geese around as we ate lunch. Once we hit the car for the ride home he and Abuelo quickly fell asleep :)

Overall, a nice Mother's Day!

No More

Finals for Pat!

His last one was Monday and now he can sit back and not study for a bit :)

We're soo proud!

Thank you, Mimi

Today Mimi helped us out of a real jam... Last Thursday, Tara informed us that she would be closed today. This is horrible because today Pat had 1 of 2 finals and I had an in-service day. Thankfully, Mimi was able to take the day off work and watched Alex.

As soon as Alex walked in the door, he showed me his 'copter hand stamp and immediately began to tell me how he and Mimi drove 'copters. He excitedly told me about the medivac "tunnel" and sirens and planes and everything about 'copters. Alex had a great time!

Thanks, Mimi!
