Dora and Diego are ready to go with their backpacks. ;)
Somehow these accessories made it into the car in addition to the backpack. She is rockin her high heels and shades.
We took the kids to the Heard Museum for the first time. It is gorgeous and I love all the trails!
Playing in the little wooden village
Maxwell got to hold the map and give us directions. He really enjoyed that. It was fun! Hopefully we will go again soon.
Emmalyn cuddled up with Aunt Britt
Watching daddy's phone
I randomly came across this picture of my dad and Marriann. I love it!
Time for new sleeping pics...
Her little foot peeking out of her sleep sack.
Maxwell was excited to bring a book to preschool that he wanted to read to his class.
We have decided to keep Maxwell in school for part of the summer. It won't be quite every other week but close to it. I think this will help him keep learning, which he enjoys, plus give him a chance to see his friends at school. And he will still get a chance to get some "off" time with Brittany and her boys but then she doesn't have 4 kids to take care of for a full 3 months.
I've had Maxwell in group piano lessons. It's really slow paced but he seems to be learning a little about reading music and a little about the piano. Once this semester is done, I'm not going to have him continue because I don't feel like it's worth it. I snuck in to watch a little of class...
Maxwell with his class at swimming lessons. See how he's at least a head shorter than the other three kids in class? I'm proud of his skills and that he's able to hang with these bigger kids.
Maxwell has been begging to go see a musical. He'd really like to go see "Wicked" but I think he's too young for that one. I bought him tickets to go see a musical put on by the local children's theater group. When I told him what I had bought him, he was so excited and jumping up and down!
Ready for a day on the town with her glasses, hat, and gloves
This is my fancy, permanent name badge for an organization I belong to called NEW (Network of Executive Women). It's been 5 years so I got this great pin. I've enjoyed being a part of the group and enjoy it more each year.
Have I mentioned how fun it is to dress a girl? Shoes that match a swimming suit? Yes!
She scraped her foot when swimming and sweet talked Ms. Mary Ann into getting her a bandaid.
I got out all the 2t clothes I have for Emmalyn so I could separate out the winter from the summer stuff. Here's everything I've got for her - it covered and entire full size bed. OH MY!!!
Kindermusik fun! I love getting to spend an hour with her each week doing this.
Look at those curls
The day arrived, time for the musical!! It was just Maxwell and I out on a momma/son date.
Reading the program
He was incredibly focused
I let him get some snacks during intermission
We stopped and got an ice cream cone and some food before we went home
picnic in the trunk
It was a fun afternoon and Maxwell was wiped out on the way home.
I took a picture because for the first time ever, we finished an entire workbook!! I feel like we just keep adding more to our house but never fully completing what we have.
