Summer Fun

Well, summer is officially here. We got our garden planted and the sprinkler ready. The boys love the water!!! Josiah likes it, but is still a little unsure.  Stephen even got some water balloons filled for some good old fun.

National Donut Day and the Zoo!

Today was National Donut Day. We went to Krispy Kreme for free donuts and then headed to the zoo to see the elephants. It was pretty cool. The boys loved the donuts and had a blast of course.

Stevie riding his bike!!!

One of Stevie's goals for the month of June is to learn how to ride his bike without training wheels. Well, he hopped on his bike and I gave him a little push and he was off! He struggled a little bit with how to start on his own, but after about 15 minutes, he was off riding it like a PRO!! So proud of him.

Art project

Today the boys and I worked on an art project. I am helping with a Gala and they need an art piece. Of course I have an idea and want to make sure that it will turn out. So why not have my boys try it out...? LOL. We all painted pictures and then let them dry. I cut them all into 1 inch strips with my paper slicer and then arranged them on 24" x 36" canvas. It turned out pretty cool. I still need to glue them down and paint a glossy or satin finish over the top. Love it. Hope it helps raise some money.

Surprise! BABY #5...WHAT?

Well, we got a surprise from God back in March....we are going to have another baby! Stephen and I were really shocked because we thought we were done.... I have gotten rid of all my maternity clothes and baby gear....we don't really have much except for the crib, that is because Josiah still sleeps in it. We are thrilled for our bundle of joy and know that God always provides. I am due in November and we will find out in July if it's a boy or a girl. I think it's a girl, but then again I have been wrong before...SO we will see. Praying for a healthy pregnancy and baby. I have been very sick this past 6 weeks and just starting to feel better. I can't really have any tomato based stuff, mainly want rice with butter or ice cream, also loving fruit.  So excited and still a little shocked.

Mother's Day

For Mother's Day, we went to church and then Jimmy's egg for brunch. It was oh' so yummy. After brunch we went to Stevie's baseball game and watched him play. He had a good throw to first base. We then napped and had our movie night with me picking the movie. I chose "Wreck it Ralph"
Got some cute cards and flowers from them. Love my boys.
