Thanksgiving 2014

We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving this year- we just have SO MUCH that we are so incredibly thankful for! This year we got to spend Thanksgiving with both sets of our parents, wonderful friends, and our first with 3 kids!! 

Gigi and Capi flew in on Tuesday night, so we got to hang with them on Wednesday.  And Wednesday night, we got a quick visit from Joe! 
Boys hanging out on the couch! 
Thanksgiving morning Gigi was doing a little yoga to stretch out her back, and Calcy decided to join her! Calcy' leg cracked us up!
Boys love playing with their legos!

Ellie hanging with her Uncle Joe! For some reason all the kids just gravitate to and LOVE him! These is the first pictures I've gotten of them too so I was excited! 
    
I think she looks more like Joe's child than ours!!
There she is at 5 weeks old- in an absolutely precious outfit from Queenie!!
LJ being silly at the table! The boys loved Queenie's turkey napkin rings and kept playing w them/ putting them on their heads (sorry Queenie!).

    

    

Attempting a few pictures before we go...

The whole group - minus Queenie who was taking the picture!

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

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...
