Cousin time, girls' night, my tall boy, and decorations are out!

On Wednesday mornings, Laura, Sang, and I take tennis lessons together, and our nanny, Karinna, watches both Locke and Evan while we are there.  I am really glad they get this extra time to play together/ get to know each other!







After naps on Wednesday, the boys and I had some fun with paint! This is the most interested I have ever seen Evan in painting... both boys had a great time!


Wednesday night, my girlfriends and I got to go to the Christmas Affair Preview Party Gala. It was a dressy occasion and so fun to get all fancy with the girls! And we got to shop the Christmas Affair without the crowd- which was very nice!

On Friday, LJ and his friend Ben were getting ready for swim class together, and we thought we get a shot of them side by side. LJ is so tall- definitely has his daddy's genes!!




Look how cute these silly boys are!


Evan wanted up too!
Got all the Christmas decorations down while the boys napped, and when we got back to the house after swim/ dinner, they were so excited to start looking through the boxes!



Of course, LJ immediately found a Santa hat to wear, and had to put on every stocking he could find at least once (thank goodness he didn't find his beautiful one that Queenie made!).


Evan would just carry anything he liked around for a minute before searching for something else!

I am so excited for the season with my silly, busy boys!

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... Ellie's first little mini-crawls: h ttp://www.youtube.com/watch? v=xm3GTgjZXbU And she has mastered the roll-to-sit move!

Mother's Day Celebrations

Image
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...
