Very Hungry Caterpillar has been a favorite read for us since Tavin was just a few months older than Abraham. From Caterpillar to Butterfly was well liked too. We didn't get to the butterfly house yet, the weather was too nice for an indoor field trip. Since Ted had a few days off we kept occupied doing other things. We had a nice, family visit to Falls Park on one of our beautiful days too. 

Helping Dad clean the deck.

Trip to the library. We visited a different library this week. It may be our summer library since it is closer.

He still loves those trains!

Matilda checking out the new Beeswax crayons.

A photo of the three of them each doing their own thing.

Digging in the dirt. They came inside quite dirty and wet. The automatic sprinklers turned on, which the kids didn't seem to mind. Immediate bath to follow.

Enjoying some books.

Coloring their alphabet flower fairies. 

This was supposed to be the life cycle craft. 

They're young yet, they just enjoy scissors, glue sticks and paper.

Our first board game: Hoot Owl Hoot! Richard Scarry's game is in the background. The first of our game collection for our family game nights.

Both Tavin and Matilda helped Daddy put together some shelves.

I put Tavin to work with some laundry. He liked using the clothespins, he takes his work very seriously.

Baby Abe. So sweet!

We had a fun week! Daddy had a few days off to spend with us...before he leaves for THREE weeks! We are going to miss him! Thankfully Nana will be visiting us for awhile!

Activity: Beeswax Molding

Heidi and Heather on Mother's Day. We spent the day with the Gillen Family. 

Ted and Heather

The Lewis Family. We tried to snap a good, family photo but it was a little windy and we were taking Tavin away from fun on the outdoor play set. He protested just a little.

Abraham can be very expressive or maybe he had gas. Pretty darn cute nonetheless. Abraham is doing great! He is gaining weight quickly, his doctor was impressed. 

He frequently makes little chipmunk noises that I am trying to get on video. 

Tavin and Matilda still adore him and want to give him love when they're not preoccupied. 

 

Some fun with molding clay. Our Beeswax is on the way from Amazon.

Dress-up at our neighbor's graduation party. The kids thought it was pretty fun!
