I decided to start a little tradition for the first day of Spring.
I made the boys the "mud pie" (oreos, chocolate pudding, and gummie worms)
and served it to them in little spring time bowls and
they had little plastic shovels to dig in with.
They loved it. I loved it. I think we'll do it again next year! :)
We discovered that the local High School did a drop in Gymnastic class. I took the boys a couple of times before they ended it for the summer. They both loved it.
Especially little Grant.
He really hasn't been able to participate in anything like this yet. He has endured watching Lincoln getting to do "everything." (Gymnastics in Idaho, soccer, pre-school, etc.) But Grant was finally big enough to participate! It was so fun watching him get so excited to try something new! They both did great.
Sweet little Eli got his first tooth (at 6mo.)! He was acting unusually fussy, not really eating, a little feverish a few days before we noticed this little tooth poking through. It never occured me that he might be teething, but when he opened his mouth at breakfast time, I saw that little tooth that was causing him so much discomfort! (the second one popped through about a week later...he now has 2 adorable little teeth on the bottom)
Bubble blowing is one of Grant's favorite pass times this Spring. He loves to blow the bubbles and chase after them to "get them." Once the soap runs out on the wand he hands it back to me and simply says, "More! "
My 3 special boys. This picture was taken on Eli's 6 month mark (I can't believe it)!
Notice cute Lincoln's lip? He had a pretty fat lip from tripping into the toilet rim a couple days before! He ran into the bathroom just before leaving for the park. I was finishing up feeding Eli his lunch when all of a sudden I heard a horindous scream from Lincoln.
He came back to the kitchen with blood all over his face and hand. I was finally able to calm him down enough to understand what happened. The inside of his mouth was split pretty bad. Thankfully no teeth were knocked out or pushed back. The left side of his face was pretty swollen quickly and the blood took awhile to stop. He was in quite a bit of pain the first day but he healed up pretty quickly. We were so grateful that it wasn't serious.
This picture was taken a couple of days after it happened. He was finally able to laugh a little about hitting his face on the toilet!
Celebrating Mommy's birthday!
Happy 6 months to Eli and 35 to Mommy!
