Louisburg Baseball

The boys took a little road trip to one of their favorite places today to watch baseball.

Brother is getting excited to play "real big time baseball" himself next week!

He found a friend to throw ball with.

He just watches the player sort of in awe...sweet boy!

As they were leaving, he asked to look back for "just one more minute!"

One day he will be out there with littles looking up to him!!

Grandparents Academy

Gymboree

As little sis enters her last week of Gymboree, I caught a glimpse of the FUN she has there. It is sort of sad closing this chapter. All three have taken classes here with the same two sweet ladies. I have meet lifelong friends here as well! However, spring and summer are just too busy to continue her weekly classes. As soon as we enter the parking lot she gets excited...then runs right in!

This might be her favorite thing there. These boards make a very loud noise as you walk or stomp across them!




These tubes are pretty high on her list as well. She almost always gets in one first thing!

When I asked her to smile for mommy she quickly said NO and kept going. But I did get this beautiful shot...she just looks too big to be my sweet baby!

She is so good at climbing and going through the obstacles. This is the best part for me because the equipment is so age appropriate and the set up changes every other week.

This orange teeter tooter/ rocker was big sis' top item here. I had to pull her off of it many times. Lil sis likes it but moves around much better on her own :)!

She can jump really well!

Slides have always been a hit!

DST has really messed her up this week so about half through the class she wanted her paci and Pinky...so I let her have them so she'd stay happy. She was precious "showing" Pinky around. She got to slide...

sing songs....

and enjoy the bubbles!

We are so thankful for the experiences but it is time to move ahead.

I will look back at Gymboree with such fond memories with all 3 of my darlings!

First birthdays, first jumps, first steps...happy thoughts!

Weekend FUN!

Weekends are super fun but oh so busy these days!

Here is a glimpse of this past weekend for us. Big sis had Friday off so we had lunch at the mall and walked around a bit.

Saturday took us is different directions. The boys went to Louisburg for a double header while the girls went to a birthday party at Monkey Joe's.

Sunday was a little more calm. Daddy took the children after church for a picnic so I could be alone (such wonderful, mentally healthy time for a mommy!) then big sis and I went to another party.

She is petting some strange animal and loving it!

Notice her new style. She loves her new hat! We are just proud of her!

Ahhh the sunshine just makes us happy!!!

Chapel

Today big sis's class lead the weekly chapel. The theme was responsibility. They did a poem, skit and song. She was so excited and they all had work hard!


They each had a sentence in the poem.

And sang together with kazoos!

Then they posed for the parents.

Afterwards, grandma asked her what would be special to do to celebrate. I think she was thinking ice cream...but not my girl. She asked grandma to take her to Best Buy for "one of those things that lets you listen to music in your ear". SO here she is with grandma and her new, hot pink ipod!!! Can you say R-O-T-T-E-N?!?!?!
