Less mess

Jack's been eating go-gurts forever and now Theo is hooked on them as well. I love them b/c Theo can eat it without smearing yogurt all on his face and hair!

Spring Blast at school

Today was Jack's last day of school and the entire preschool performed various songs for their parents. Jack was seated right behind a classmate and it was next to impossible to get a good shot of him. We heard him though! He sang very loudly and was animated too! We may have a budding Thespian on our hands because he sured loved the attention today.

After the performance was over, the kids headed over to the playground to have fun. There was a water slide, a sprinkler, lots of booths set up with fun things to do (like eat a powdered donut from a sting without using your hands). Jack had tons of fun and is now officially out of school for summer!

Jack and Theo's new bedding

We plan on bunking up the boys together once Theo's crib days are over (hopefully not anytime soon!!!) and I've had my eye on some new bedding for months now. I decided that I liked this reversible comforter set and that it would carry the boys into the tweens well. I got them the cutest superhero sheets (Jack has Batman and Theo has Spiderman) that blend in well with the bedding. The trundle mattress is all dressed with the bedding until Theo is ready to get a big bed of his own. We're kind of toying with bunk beds, but we're not sure if Theo can be trusted with a ladder. As much as Jack would love having top bunk, we may just end up with side-by-side twin beds!

Notice the plethora of "friends" at the foot of Jack's bed.

Making room

Dave and I moved the giant train table up in Theo's room yesterday to open up more space in the playroom. Theo LOVES playing with it up in his room and we LOVE having him upstairs. He is saying "cheese" in the picture with his eyes closed. We've evolved from him covering his face at least.

Party of two

We got a ceiling fan put back up on the patio (had one put in last July and Gustav destroyed our patio....... less than a month later), so we've been spending a lot of time outside. Dave and I grilled on the barbeque and the boys had a nice picnic. Then they proceeded to get filthy dirty and needed a bath before nap time. Oh well, Jack napped so we must have done something right!

Anna Jayne's birthday

Dave took Jack to his friend Anna Jayne's birthday party today. She had a princess tea party, complete with karaoke! Jack and all of the boys dressed up as their favorite super heroes while the girls were all various Disney princesses. Jack had fun and decorated a crown with dinosaurs (his obsession lately). Thanks for the great time, Anna Jayne!!

Katie's graduation

Cousin Katie graduated from Tulane medical school today and I drove over with Bitsy and Glynn to help celebrate this accomplishment. Katie will be starting her preliminary year in Internal Medicine next month and then will go on to specialize in Dermatology. She and her husband, Arnaud, and baby Elise of course, will be traveling to France tomorrow for a month-long visit with his family. She'll come back and immediately start up her residency.

Katie's parents, Dianne and Mike, hosted a wonderful reception for Katie at their house. Mike and Dianne's home looks amazing and they have spent countless (years) getting it back in order following Katrina.

Katie, we are so proud of you and all that you have accomplished. You got your Master's in Public Health and your MD, on top of having your first baby. You are amazing and we're all so proud of you!!!
