LJ's 100th Day of Kindergarten

LJ got to celebrate his 100th day in Kindergarten by dressing like a '100 year old' and having several fun activities through out the day! 

I got on Amazon and found some good deals on costume items for LJ to wear for the 100th day (and thought it would be worth it since this seems to be a new trend and we have 2 more kids!). So we found him some fun glasses, a pipe, a flatcap hat just like my Grandpa always wore, suspenders and a bow tie! He (and Evan) were so excited when they arrived, and they both had to try them on immediately! 

And LJ would try them out from time to time before the big day! 
The 100th Day of School.... He looked SO CUTE! 

And then I got to go volunteer at the school ... OMG! His teacher looked so funny!!!! She was dressed like an old man- made me laugh out loud when I walked in!!! 
LJ had already taken off all his gear at 10:30- only the bow tie remained! 
All the kids looked so cute!!! I love this class so much! 

Then I spent an hour helping out while the class did all their cute '100th Day' activities! 
A '100' necklace! 

A self portrait of them at 100 years old. LJ wrote 'I would get grand-children. I will walk with a cane. I will cookies and be very old.'  Hahah! 

Here is a pile of his crafts!

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

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...
