February 2016

February was a crazy and full month as we prepared to move to Cedar Park! We were packing out house, making final decisions and doing walk throughs at the new house, celebrating birthdays, enjoying as much time as possible with the people we will miss when we move, enjoying awesome weather, and Barrett and I had a wedding to go to in Mexico at the end of the month! Never a dull moment, but so thankful for all we got to do! 
Here are some of our random memories!  

Ellie proud of herself for sneaking off with LJ's iPad! 
LJ's karate chop!
Silly girl! I love this face!!!
Sweet boy! 

Celebrating Laura and Grandad's birthdays at Jack Allen's! 
Ellie and I got to have lunch with one of my oldest friends, Patrick, and his little boy Jayce! He is so precious! 
Ellie loves to wear the boys' back packs around (even though they almost tip her over!). 

LJ found a bag of Skinny Pop ... 
And then Ellie found LJ! 
She was so happy to be eating this!!!!
Fun on a new play ground!! 


Lunch at Waterloo ... Go Broncos! 
Ellie found herself a stage! 
Evan was SO happy to have Grandad and Dad at 'Man in Your Life' at their school!! 

Ellie enjoying her Queenie time at Jack Allens! 
She is a happy girl!!! 
Made it out to a lake house, and had to take a picture of my four favorites!!! 

LJ asks me to take pictures pretty often now, and this was one of those moments! 
Then Evan noticed and insisted on getting in on it! Sometimes I have to beg, and sometimes they ask!! Haha! 

Ellie destroys this cabinet (used to be pretty organized with all my baking goods) about 3 times a day in 7 seconds flat!!! 
I got to go on a unique girls' night out this month... to the Roller Skating Rink!!! Too. Much. Fun!!!! It had been about 20 years for me! 



Playing at Thomas' house... 




Celebrating Eagle Jr's birthday at Hat Creek. 


Boys love time with these cousins! 

Saturday Farmer's Market... and the boys wanted to get their faces painted! If we give them the choice of face painting or a balloon, they have always picked a balloon! First time for face paints... they loved it!! 


LJ picked an alien!


And Evan picked a Longhorn! So cute! 

Grandad and Queenie came to see our new house before brunch at Vivo! Thanks for making the trip up!! 
Playdate with Benjamin!! 



Eagle Jr's birthday party! LJ volunteered to get in the middle of this thing! 


It was a Power Ranger party at a candy store! Fun!
LJ was into it! haha! 
I got to enjoy a little time with my beautiful niece Kate!



Cake time!
Ellie enjoying Grandad time at Jack Allen's! 

She is obsessed with his glasses!!! It's really cute!
The boys love having playdates!!

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...
