A few moments in our week

Started the week with a play date with Ben... Much more fun to eat at the table when he has a friend sitting with him!


LJ is obsessed with iPads/ iphones... and it is amazing how much he can do on them!

Reading with Dad
Evan's first time to HEB- he did very well (slept through the whole thing)!
LJ had been doing very well with Evan- He is sharing his pilot (his favorite toy) with Evan here...
And he left the pilot on Evan! So sweet!
LJ has also been extra cuddly- which is a rare treat for me! 
Thanks for a wonderful visit and a delicious meal Jeremy and Lydia!


Evan's first lunch out- We went to Whole Foods! 
Nose kisses with Gigi!
We have been given Evan a few sponge bathes- He isn't the biggest fan so far! Poor little guy! 
 But he sure looks handsome and smells good after! 


Brotherly love!


When Evan cries, he gets next to him and says "It's ok Evan"!
And then on Friday, after 2 weeks, we had to say good-bye to Gigi!  She has been the most amazing help and I don't know what we would have done without her (or what we'll do now!)! Thanks so much for giving up 2 weeks of your life to be sleep deprived, exhausted, and in full survival mode with us Gigi! 

(Good news is she will be back for a quick trip next week!!)

My cousins Alexa and AJ brought us dinner and spent some time with us on Friday.

"I can make that sound too!"
LJ has been extra affectionate with his stuffed animals...

A stare down with Alexa!

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

Ellie - Our Earliest Crawler!

Our little 'surprise' baby got us again and started crawling 2 months earlier than the boys did! She was close for about a week, and then at just about 8.5 months, she took her first crawls! She is getting the hang of it quickly... time to secure the legos that seem to always be all over the floor! First she started rocking on her knees, and doing little army crawls/ knees/ army crawl to get places. Then about a week later, we saw her first crawls. Within a week after those first crawls, she was all over the place!!! She will come find me in the kitchen if I leave her sitting in the living room and will venture all over the house! She's not fast, but she's pretty good! And so proud of herself! Here are some videos of her progress...

Mother's Day Celebrations

What a special and spoiled week I had!!! On Tuesday I picked these two precious things up from Champions:  Then the first celebration (well not including the Chick-fil-a mom-son date knight) was on Wednesday. LJ's class at WHPP had a Mother's Day Tea- and how lucky we were that Gigi came to town late on Tuesday night and was able to join me!!  Since Gigi was there (the only Grandmother in the room!), we got a table all to ourselves... and also LJ had twice the amount of work! He served both Gigi and me our tea/ lemonade, cookies, and fruit snacks!  He made me a very fun necklace and made me a new coffee mug all wrapped up...      I started crying when I read it: "This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 4 years old" with a hand print ned to it!!! How special!!  And a flower for Gigi!!!   This was outside LJ's classroom...  I am chopped liver with these two! Haha!!  We picked up Evan a...
