Last day of school

From the first day of preschool Sept 2009....

 

To the last day May 2010....

 

 

Caleb building

When Caleb has trouble falling asleep, he takes his animals and pillows and builds things...

 

 

Leo's Bath

Daddy kept saying that Leo needed a bath, so we decided to help him out. Leo was not too thrilled to be getting a bath. Strange because he loves the water. Maybe it had something to do with Garett trying to wash him with the sprinkler..

 

 

 

The Monkeys' new beds

Everyone got new beds when we got to the new house. Caleb and Tyler are now in bunk beds and Garett moved on from the toddler bed into a big boy bed. Good thing because he was looking a little cramped in the toddler bed!

 

 


And a bonus picture of all of my little monkeys on mother's day!
 

Dinnertime!

Sophie now escapes from the bumbo seat, so it makes it kind of hard to feed her in that anymore, so she's moving on to the high chair when it's not in use by Garett....

 

 

 

Tyler and Leo

Tyler has become quite protective about Leo. He's started looking for him each morning and really likes it when he's around. Today they were hanging out in the grass outside, just relaxing...

 

 

 

 

Game Day

Caleb started playing tball this year and has really been enjoying it. Here are a few pictures from todays game:

Tyler preferred to keep both feet on the ground :)
 

Stay-Cation 2010

The monkeys could have and would have spent the entire day in the pool on Saturday. The big boys swam for several hours and Garett and Sophie swam for quite a while as well. They all loved the water.

 

 

 

 

Stay-cation 2010

So, instead of traveling 4 hours or more to do a lot of the same things we would do in Virginia, we decided to check in to a local hotel and do a stay-cation here in Norfolk. We found that the short travel time made this experience even more enjoyable. We went about 10 minutes away, and stayed in downtown Norfolk. We pretty much parked the car and walked everywhere once we got there. We went to a baseball game Firday night and when we got back, the kiddos went right to sleep.

Sleeping arrangements- this was Garett's first time to sleep in his sleeping bag instead of a pack and play- he did surprisingly well.
 

 

Riding arrangements- Lucky kiddos, they were strolled just about everywhere- but also got out just enough to run off energy.
 

 

Happy Easter

Hunting eggs with friends
