Spring Blast

Jack had his last day of preschool (sniff) last Wednesday. All of the preschoolers performed various songs and then the kids were dismissed to go have FUN! Gigi and Dada came over for all of the fun :) Theo went to a sitter that day since siblings are encouraged not to attend. He'll just have to wait for next May for his own Spring Blast! Jack spent the majority of the fun time in a giant, foam machine. He just loved it, as did all of the other kids there. We'll sure miss Ms. Bell and Ms. Scheinuk next year. Now we'll spend a summer at the pool and play dates with friends!

Time with Corinne and Parker

The boys and I are in Houston until Tuesday. I'm staying over at Jen & Brian's house helping love on Corinne and Parker and the boys are living it up at Mimi and Papa's! They've gotten to bowl, go to parks and bounce houses, swim and have an Astros game to look forward to on Monday. I'm holding a 6 lb bundle of pure sweetness and have been deemed the resident expert on changing boy diapers :) Here is Corinne with her baby brother, Parker. So cute!!

Doing things himself

Theo has always been, should we say, laid back. He's been content to let us do things for him and times....... they are a changin'. We've had to make a concerted effort to have Theo do things for himself. Like putting on his own shoes. Or wiping his mouth and hands after meals. But we've stuck to our guns and now our little dumpling is empowered :) He can put on his own shoes and take them off as well. He washes his own hands with soap and water with ease.

Next step...... give ya 3 guesses.....

Theo's last day of MDO

Our run at St. Timothy's MDO has ended :( Theo had such a fun year and loved singing songs and playing with his friends. Look at how many blondes were in the class! How the teachers ever could tell them apart is beyond me! Most of them have tendrils of curls to boot. His class had a pizza party to celebrate the end of the year. We're sure going to miss Ms. Alexis, Ms. Sherry and Ms. Leigh. Theo is moving on to Cedarwood next year (where Jack has gone to school for 2 years). He'll hopefully be in Jack's 3 year old class with Ms. Angerdina....... if we can get him potty trained. Which we're kicking off this weekend. Stay tuned.

Waterspouts

I met up with some friends last week and took Theo to the waterspouts in Old Mandeville. Umm, not sure we'll be going back any time soon. The little skunk found a mud hole and basically made such a complete mess of himself that he's lucky I kept him! And he really wanted nothing to do with the water so cleaning off the mud was a task. He also pushed the boundaries of running far away from the spouts down the trailhead...... and mama don't play that. Brings back memories of Jack doing the same thing at this age. And I really don't like to revisit that time in Jack's life! Ha!

Cousin Parker

The boys got a new cousin on Tuesday! Parker Kent was born 6 weeks early so we are thrilled that he's holding his own on just a little bit of oxygen. Cousin Corinne hasn't gotten to meet her baby brother just yet but hopefully will soon! I'm hoping to see him in the near future as well :)

Autin boys

My friend Rochelle came over for a visit on Saturday with her boys, Tyler and Brady. Her boys are the exact ages of Jack and Theo so they hit it off very well :) We took them to Chick fil a to burn off some energy since it was raining that day. They loved the ice cream treat before the play date ended.
