Boys' New School- HOPE

 The Monday after Spring Break, the boys started their new school. They had heard about it, but never actually visited. This school does not offer a 4 day program (which they were in at WHPP), so I asked if they wanted to go 3 or 5 days. They both insisted they wanted to go 5 days! So I signed them up for two classes- a MWF class AND a Tues/Thurs class. I thought this was a little much, but that maybe it would be a good way for them to make lots of new friends! 

This was the board outside LJ's classroom the first day! What a warm welcome!! 



Barrett's new office is right down the street from the boys' new school, so he met me at the school for pick-up to tell the boys how proud he was and show support. They were so excited!!! 


First week down (although it was only a 4 day week since Friday was Good Friday), and overall the boys did pretty well! On the fourth day, Evan was very sad at drop off, but his teacher said he was over very quickly. By pick up, they were all happy campers again! 
The second week, they told me they only wanted to go to their MWF classes. And on Tuesday, they were whining the entire way to school! So I took them out of the T/TH class right then! 
So boys are now only in school Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays, and we will be exploring our new city on Tuesday and Thursdays!!! :)

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

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...
