Happy Father's Day!

Father's Day was super fun this year. The kids were so excited to give dad their presents that they made from school. Timmy gave him a tiny picture frame with a picture of the T.J. and the kids in it and a little book about his favorite things about his dad. He said his favorite thing to do with his dad was go fishing. Maura gave him a paper crown that said "king for the day" on it and made him wear it around. She also gave him a book. In the book she said that her dad was 69 years old, 50 feet tall, had black hair and brown eyes, his favorite food is green beans, and she wouldn't trade him or all her money--8 cents! We laughed and laughed over that. Topher colored him a picture in nursery and gave him a candy bar and Mila and I gave him a BBQ apron, a tie, and candy. We grilled steaks and had a yummy salad. I think he really enjoyed the day.

Camping at Home

The other day T.J., Drew, and Anthony decided to take the kids "camping." They decided to go camping in the back yard. The kids were ecstatic. They ran and played and sat around the fire and got just about as dirty as they would have if they had been in the woods. Drew and Anthony set up tents but T.J. and the kids slept on the trampoline. I wasn't sure if they would make it all night, but they did. They thought it was great even though their pillows and blankets were totally soaked in the morning from the dew. They want to do it again soon.

Student of the Month

Timmy was awarded the Student of the Month award in his class at school. Each teacher got to pick one student and his teacher picked him.He got this award for being respectful, kind, obedient of rules, and academic excellence. I was a proud mom. I asked him if he knew that he was getting it and he told me, "no, but I was crossing my fingers really hard that it would be me and it worked!" He is so funny! Timmy really is a great kid not only at school, but at home too. He is willing to help almost all the time. He is a special kid.

4 months old

Mila turned four moths old last week. She is getting so big. She keeps us smiling all of the time. We are constantly laughing at her crazy hair, her loud squeals, and her cute giggles. She is holding her head up well and just started rolling over. She is starting to want to grab things but hasn't quite figured it out yet. She is such a sweet girl, sleeps sleeps through the night and loves to have anybody talk to her. We love our little Mila!

we are trying to clip back her crazy hair since headbands don't stay on and its a little too short for a piggy tail so we are going with a clip for now.

I can't get enough of these cute hands and feet!

Maura at Tball

I snapped a picture of Maura on her last day of tball. She had a good time but the jury is still out on whether she bats right or left handed. Maybe she'll do both!

Happy Flag Day!!

Happy Flag Day! We got all dressed up in our red, white and blue today and watched the kids march around the school to show their patriotism. It was a blast!
