This month has been crazy as we get ready to close out the school year. I'm looking forward to things being a little more low key (hopefully) this summer.
 |
| We finished up spring soccer. I'm excited for a break from sports for the summer! |
 |
| Harrison is still doing twice a week swim lessons. He has made so much progress! |
 |
| First time he swam all the way across the pool. |
 |
| What on earth made her decide to cover the picnic table with all the sand from the sand box? |
 |
| We officially take up all the room on the tire swing! |
 |
| Soccer pictures! Showing off his hopefully unbreakable sports glasses |
 |
| This was his first season to be old enough to play in the tournament at the end. His team came from behind to win the first game but then lost the second. Poor guy was devastated!!! |
 |
| A family trip to Dairy Queen made life good again |
 |
| Kate loved her first blizzard |
 |
| Andrew: spoon in one hand, napkin in the other. The kid hates to be sticky |
 |
| Water fun! |
 |
| Time for play doh |
 |
| The face Kate made when asked to smile for the camera! |
 |
| Ryan had a work training in Raleigh so I got to meet these girls for dinner, always a treat! |
 |
| Waiting for preschool to start |
 |
| Kate loves to be serious when it comes to pictures but she actually has a very playful personality |
 |
| No better way to start a Monday than coffee in this cool cup |
 |
| Sweet preschool friends waiting for the icy truck to come |
 |
| James received a reading award at the mall. |
 |
| James and Mrs. Benton |
 |
| I was surprised when Kate drew a person. I don't think either of the older boys could have done that at this age. |
 |
| James did a month of swim team to review before the summer starts. |
 |
| Just when we thought we were done with this... |
 |
| "Mommy I want to do the fish medicine" |
 |
| For mother's day I got a new waffle maker that also does donuts which was a fun change. |
 |
| Church performance time |
 |
| Fun at a friend's gymnastics birthday party |
 |
| Car rides...they can still be so painful. |
 |
| While Ryan was in San Fran Andrew started climbing consistently out of the crib- and waking Kate up-and turning the lights on- at crazy times like 2 in the morning. We put his mattress completely on the floor and he STILL climbed out and also got his body stuck all the way under with his head still in the crib! |
 |
| For any moms who may one day need this- this thing is pricey and ridiculous but if you need your child to stay in a crib for your sanity it works! |
 |
| James also had a mid week church performance. |
 |
| This is why we do not bring A and K to regular church |
 |
| I'm sure we provided a lot of entertainment for those watching. In addition to this special moment Andrew also yelled out in the middle "I NEED TO EAT" and when it was time for communion Harrison announced to all who could hear "We JUST did this three days ago!" |
 |
| Sign that you need more sleep |
 |
| Field day! |
 |
| Sharing her cereal |
 |
| Best buds |
 |
| Harrison decorated these plates and then somehow (I don't even what to know how) attached them to our door "so you can use them when you need to eat a little snack or something mom." |
 |
| Our old babysitter Angela came to town and we got to give her a quick hug. We miss her so much! |
 |
| I'm a little biased but these two boys are amazing big brothers |
 |
| One of my thank you notes for being a volunteer in James's class. I love that I am "assome". I guess that's a cross between being awesome and being an... lol. |
 |
| Learning about Abe Lincoln! |
