If you know me even a little bit, you know I love Dr. Seuss!  It is perhaps one of my favorite units I teach all year long.  I love Dr. Seuss so much that when I saw this dress on Etsy, I had to have it for my little lady.  Doesn’t she just look cute?  Thanks Aunt Christa for an early birthday gift!

At school last week, we went Dr. Seuss crazy!  So crazy that my assistant even commented, "You said you loved Dr. Seuss, but I have never seen someone love him so much!"  I didn’t get pictures of everything, but here are a few of my favorites.

The Shape of Me and Other Stuff self portraits.  They named themselves Dr. ___(insert first name) Seuss.  They turned out really cute!

After reading Horton Hears a Who we made "oo" words into silly faces.  We also made Horton contraction ears.  I failed to snap a picture of these.

On Wednesday we had a birthday party for Dr. Seuss.  Complete with a guest read aloud of Wacky Wednesday (another teacher at school that does skits in morning assembly), the cutest Dr. Seuss cake (made by a fantastic and very talented mom), and Pink Yink Ink Drinks.  We even got to watch a little Horton Hears a Who.

Then the same mom who made the Dr. Seuss birthday cake, surprised me with my very own Dr. Seuss themed birthday cake (my birthday was on Monday).  So sweet!

Notice my fabulous apron that was a birthday gift from my sweet friend.

One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish cake!

One last shot of the cutey, delicious cake!

Mikayla got in on the Dr. Seuss fun too, but I will save those details for a later post!  It was a great week, but between everything else going on I was exhausted and definitely ready for the weekend.
