Happy Birthday Dr Seuss!

Speaking of theme weeks... This week Nate's school (and every other school in the country) celebrated Seuss Week in honor of what would have been the 109th birthday of Theodore Geisel (better known as Dr Seuss) on March 2.

First up - Monday - Crazy Hair Day

So sad.
Mia showing him how it's done
Nate didn't really want to do anything for Crazy Hair Day. I tried to show him some cool pictures of other kids with crazy hair. There was green hair with a bunch of bugs crawling through it, and we were going to do something like that with sharks or dinosaurs (see the dinosaur in his hair in that picture). He got excited about it for a second, but then he decided he just wanted to play with them. So we decided to just do green hair in his regular style.

Then came - Wednesday - Crazy Hat Day

Went to school like this
Came home like this!
Obviously his hat is not that crazy, but he was excited about it because it had dinosaurs on it, so I was just happy he was more into it.

And finally - Friday - Crazy Sock Day

ROOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!


Again, the socks aren't that crazy, but we mismatched them, and at least they have some sort of design. I did try to get him some crazy socks, but the store I went to didn't have any for little boys. Lame! Again, he was pretty excited about this - and can you guess why?

In the end, I think he had fun this week at school. And obviously something stuck because when he went to the bank with Grandpa Friday afternoon he asked her if she knew that it was Dr. Seuss's birthday. (She did!)
