The Big 5

We had W's 5th birthday party this weekend. We had it at the local gymnastics place. It was SO fun for the kids and SO easy for the parents! Literally all I did was show up with the cake. W's birthday falls at a bad time b/c so many families take family vacations these first few weeks of June. But, he had a blast with the kiddos who showed.

Alligators Oh My!

Russ and Crystal were in town this weekend. S decided to take all the boys on a nature hike. On their hike, they saw a real live alligator in its natural environment. About 2 ft long. Another check off S's to-do list before leaving LA.

By Golly - I think we've got it!

Will is doing great with swim lessons this year. Now if we can just keep it up...

7 Months

Time is flying.....C is already 7 months. Here's what's happening...

• Starting that scoot before the crawl - maybe I should keep him contained in things so he can't do this yet! :)
• Blabbing "da da" all the time
• Loving real food over baby food
• Sitting up proficiently and playing all the time now

Look at me in my big boy jammies!!

Vacation

We spent last week on vacation and had a fabulous time! Enjoyed the relaxed beach life! We went to a place between San Destin and Seaside, FL. We had so much fun as a family! Now back to business and trying to get this house sold!

Preschool Graduation

W had his preschool graduation last night. His school really did it up and it was very official. Each class did a couple of songs, then they all sang about 3 songs and then had the walk down the aisle. It was so cute. I have been more than pleased with First Baptist Mandeville's preschool program. W had so much fun and learned a lot. The teachers were loving and taught them not only their ABC's and 123s but also the love of Christ. So, on behalf of my little graduate, THANK YOU teachers for all your hard work and dedication! Next up...Kindergarten!
