Week 12!!!
March 19, 2011: Since it we had a couple days of nice weather, I got hopeful that it would stick around. To that end, I decided it was time to put together Weston's bike that he got for Christmas. I was surprised to find out that he actually fit on it, but also that he loves it!!! We're still working on getting pedaling down but I think he'll be a pro by the end of summer.
March 20, 2011: Our next door neighbor (and my God-son!!! Yay!!) turned 2 on this day!! Here are all the kids enjoying the toys Dylan had just opened.
March 21, 2011: Another nice (as in not completely freezing) day outside. I took the boys out to draw on the deck. Of course Gray thought it was fun to dump all the chalk out and roll around in it.
March 22, 2011: I've been shortening Grayson's naps in an effort to get him to sleep through the night. It seems to be working some but this is what he does once I wake him. Doesn't he look so sweet lounging around?
March 23, 2011: Since I've decided not to send Weston to preschool, I thought maybe I should start teaching him letters or at least introduce him to the idea of sitting for me while we do a short lesson (which we'll definitely be implementing daily starting in the fall). On this day we did "A". Weston did a great job of drawing his own "A". I'm so proud of his hard work and willingness to learn.
March 24, 2011: I don't normally do a bubble bath with the boys but thought it might be fun for them on this night. Boy was I right. They did not want to get out of the bath. Who knew something so simple could be so fun!
March 25, 2011: Oopppps.....2nd warning in 2 months. I better start being careful. Meanwhile, I'm just praising God for the mercy that's been shown. :)
Week 15!!!
April 9, 2011: Wedding Day!!! Maria looked so gorgeous!! I was so thrilled to be a part of her special day.
April 10, 2011: Our plane back to Maryland. I promised Weston I would take a picture for him. It was a bitter sweet ride. I was happy to return home to my boys but was sad to leave all my girls. I can't wait to get together with them again.
April 11, 2011: A nearby park has a train track that runs right by it. We've gone to play there a couple times hoping the train would come (it's not really on a schedule that I can tell), and we finally caught it on this day! The boys loved sitting there and watching the train.
April 12, 2011: I forgot to take a picture again on this day so I'm showing one from the previous week that I absolutely LOVE!!! My sister took this picture while the boys were staying at her house. It's so sweet.
April 13, 2011: My mom has been staying at my grandmother's for while since my grandmom was in the hospital. Mom was missing the boys so we went to Arnold to visit for the day. Weston loved checking out his Moo-moo's new iPad. He learned how to play Angry Birds and now wants to play it on my computer at home all the time.
April 14, 2011: Another play date with the Cheetham's! Jordyn had a blast showing the boys her Barbie convertible. They drove it all around the front yard.
April 15, 2011: Since my sister-in-law has had extreme morning sickness (all day long), Mike took the boys to a local barber shop to get their hair cut. They did so well sitting there for someone other than their Mere-Bear and looked adorable with their new cuts!!!
