Sesame Street Live- Make a New Friend

As a fun treat for the boys, we got tickets to Sesame Street Live: Make a New Friend!  Gigi happened to be in town, so Barrett sacrificed his ticket so she could go with us!

Both boys were so excited (although Evan probably had no idea why he was excited!).


Photo opp! 



Holding hands into the show... LJ was helping me take care of Evan (his words!) while Gigi got us snacks.
LJ may have been more excited about the popcorn than the show :)
Show begins!!

Evan had to stay in my lap the whole first half! He was so interested, but I think just a little nervous by their size too! 


LJ inhaled his popcorn (and maybe spilled it twice too!), and then decided the bucket was a perfect hat for the show! 

Intermission... Evan making friends! 

A big hug for brother!


Gigi got the boys their very first cotton candy.


LJ was more interested in playing with it than eating it... but Evan liked to do both! In fact, I couldn't get it out of his hand! Ugh oh!! 
Show started- and look who came to give LJ a high five!! 


Evan was a little more comfortable this half and sat by himself for a while.... and was in awe!!! 
Then Evan got to give someone a high five too! Gigi said when the big animal approached him, he just looked right at him and said, "HI!!" Hahaha! 



Gigi's lap = Happy Evan!
LJ watching the show...

Big balls thrown into the crowd...
And LJ went for one! 

Still hanging on to cotton candy!

And the result of a full, fun morning with too much sugar: crashing on the way home (with the big Elmo balloon floating in the middle!). Hilarious!!

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...
