Holy Cannoli--July's Almost Over!

It was a busy week for Pierre and Miss Smith.  Between work and the heat, Pierre is definitely ready for a nap.  Here are some highlights from the week:

-Miss Smith and Miss Shannon cooked some dinner on Tuesday night.  Pierre was in charge of the music and of course he wanted to pull out a special gift from his friends in Room 23!

-Thursday school was canceled because it was too hot.  Pierre and Miss Smith headed over to Miss Trapasso's to watch some French movies and eat a lot of food.  While they were there, Pierre played with Sebastian!

-On Friday, Pierre, Miss Smith, and Miss Trapasso went school shopping (it's never too soon) and saw a movie.  Pierre was so excited about school that he wrote to his cousin, Sophie, in Paris.  He told her all about last school year, how much fun he had, and asked her to come visit!
- On Saturday, Pierre accompanied Miss Smith and her friend Nicole to the Canal Fest.  It was extremely hot, but fried dough made it worth it!

Pierre loves fried dough!

-On Sunday, Miss Smith's family took her grandpa to a Bison's game.  Despite getting hit by a foul ball (ouch!), it was a fun time.  Afterwards, Miss Smith's grandpa took them to dinner. Yum!

Picnic

Unforunately, Pierre does not have much to report this week.  Nothing out of the ordinary happened.  Work, gym, home.  Sometimes, you just have those weeks!

However, Pierre ADORED seeing everyone at the picnic (as well as Miss Smith), so he just wants to share those pictures and hopes that this week will be slightly  more exciting.  What was your favorite part of the picnic?

Summer Time!

Holy smokes this week passed by quickly!  It wasn't a very exciting week, but Pierre and Miss Smith are enjoying summer.  Pierre went to summer school with Miss Smith.  It's a lot of work, but the room that they are in is air-conditioned, which is nice because you know Miss Smith gets cranky when she gets warm.  On Tuesday, Pierre went with Miss Smith's class to the aquarium!  He loved seeing all the fish and the seals.

Last Friday night, Pierre went with Miss Smith to the Sugarland concert!  It was so much fun.  Miss Smith went with her family and friends and everyone sang along to all the songs (Miss Smith and Pierre sang especially loud to your favorite--Stuck Like Glue!)

On Saturday, Miss Smith and Pierre went to Miss Smith's friends college graduation party.  There was a myriad of food to eat and it was a relaxing, fun time.

Other than that, it's been a pretty quiet summer.  Pierre is enjoying getting ready for the picnic on Saturday.  He can't wait to see those of you who are coming!

Sha-Bam! Happy Fourth of July!

This week was a laid back week for Pierre and Miss Smith.  Pierre spent some much needed time by the pool (he changed into his new outfit a little early because he was so excited!) and ran some errands with Miss Smith. It wasn't the most exciting week and it wasn't sunny every day, but it was a nice mini vacation.

During the summer, Miss Smith will be working with Boces Summer School, so on Friday, Pierre patiently waited in the car while Miss Smith went to orientation all day.  It was not very fun for either of them.

Saturday, Miss Smith and Pierre went to her grandma and grandpa's house to celebrate her great-grandma's 94th birthday.  Miss Smith's Grammie LOVED Pierre and thought he was adorable!  Everyone had a great time and ate a lot of cake.

Sunday was another lazy day.  It was beautiful, so Miss Smith spent a lot of time relaxing in the backyard.  Miss Shannon joined her and Pierre for a little bit and it was a very nice day.  Monday, of course, was the Fourth of July!  Miss Smith went to the beach in the morning and Pierre joined her.  It was a lot of fun, but they didn't stay too long--it was a busy day.

Miss Smith's grandpa always throws a huge party on the Fourth of July.  There is a lot of food and fun.  Unfortunately, Pierre was so very tuckered out from the sun earlier that morning that he slept through the party.  It's okay though, because he probably would not have enjoyed the loudness of the fireworks--remember, he's not even one year old yet!  He saw pictures the next morning and enjoyed those.  Pierre is enjoying his last day off with Miss Smith before summer school starts up on Wednesday.  He cannot wait to see you all in less than two weeks!

Happy Fourth of July!
