Woo Hoo Water!

Best Buddies

Creighton had a little play date with his birthday buddy. B is 4 days older and the two run in the same circles.

Driving through HEB

I have a love/hate relationship with the car cart. On one hand, the kids love them and it keeps them occupied in the store. On the other hand they are large and in charge and very hard to steer. Today the love won out because who could resist such cuties in the car.

Oh Noes!

Creighton and I went on a walk this morning. He demolished a biter biscuit and was covered in goo. So I brought him home, fed him lunch, stripped him down and gave him a bath. Not 15 minutes after the bath this is the photo I took. Ha ha, for the life of me, I'll never understand how baby poop goes verticle.

Mother's Day

I want to put it out there that I am the luckiest mom in the whole world. I have the best kids anyone can ask for and a wonderful husband to boot. Neil and the kids conspired to send me the adorable flowers in the cute garden tote. This morning, Grace let me sleep in a little bit. She got up and went to play and watch TV by herself. When she heard Creighton fuss, she went in and gave him a toy and turned on his light so he played a bit by himself. Then when I got up to get Creighton she shooed me to my room with Creighton (to keep me busy) so she could make me breakfast. She made me a PB&J all by herself and served it to me in bed. What a girl.

We joined some friends for brunch at the O-club and had a relaxing afternoon. What more could a girl want?

Handy Manny and Bob the Builder

What a great day. We went from one adventure to the next but probably the best was the Build and Grow event at Lowe's. Melissa and I signed the kids up to build flower boxes a couple of weeks ago and today was the day. The girls got aprons and goggles to keep. The nice people at Lowe's provided a building kit complete with predrilled nails, "blueprints" and sweet little hammers.

As you can see Grace loved it and did a great job building her box. Creighton loved watching and supervising. I'm sure it won't be long before he's building his own projects.

After they were done, the kids got their work checked and received a patch to sew on their aprons and a certificate of completion. We'll paint the flowerbox tomorrow and plant in it. I think it will be displayed on our porch.

We'll be sure to catch the next Build and Grow event. I think we're making emergency boxes.
