Patsy Sommer Carnival 2016

Next year LJ will be attending Patsy Sommer Elementary School, and so we were able to go to their annual school carnival with our 'incoming kindergardener' and his family!! Yay! Barrett wasn't able to go, so the kids and I headed there right after Ellie got up from her nap! 
First event... LJ attempted the Sac-Hop Race. He started out having fun, but then fell a couple of times and wasn't a big fan! Hah! He got out after the third fall and walked back to me without finishing... at least he tried though!! Evan wouldn't try it! 

Then we went to make our snow cones... Yum! Perfect for our long wait for the petting zoo! 
Waiting in line... just being Ellie! 
And Evan... always collecting sticks! 
Petting Zoo time.. 
Ellie did very well! She was laughing so hard at all the animals!

LJ showing Evan how to gently pick up the bunny! 



Baby goats... 
Evan got really into feeding them!!! 






Sliding time! There were several bouncy house/ slides... We did 3 of them (some had really long lines), but this one was the boys' favorite! 
 Ellie really wanted to do it too, but I couldn't let her!  She kept taking her shoes off and walking over there... it was sad! 



Selfie to distract her!! 
Brothers! 
 Then we found  our neighbors and some dinner, and ended in the huge foam/ bubble pit thing! The boys LOVED this!!! They were drenched afterwards!





  Evan didn't like when his face got too covered, so he would come get wiped off - and then run back in for more!!! 
  Ellie only got to play with bubbles on my hand! 


Such a fun night, and we are excited to be joining the Sommer family!

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...
